At Thomas George Estates both our roots and our inspiration are firmly planted in our iconic Russian River Valley vineyards and the legacy of our historic winery on Westside Road. Thomas George Estates Winery was established in 2008 when Tom Baker acquired the winery and vineyard of Russian River Valley wine pioneer Davis Bynum. He chose the Russian River Valley and the Davis Bynum Vineyard in particular on the basis of his belief that it is one of the best terroirs anywhere in which to grow and produce Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
