Welcome to Occidental Road Cellars

Our goal is to grow and produce the finest ultra-premium wines possible from lands farmed by our family for four generations. 
The vineyard site is a rolling ridge near Occidental, California with a southern aspect and spectacular views of the hills beyond. 
The moderate climate allows for fruit maturity with exceptional depth and balance.

 

Occidental Road has always been the egress for our bounty and always our way home.

Richard and Joelle Prather, Owners

Coming Spring 2013
 Occidental Road Cellars will be opening a wine tasting room at 870 Gravenstein Hwy North, Sebastopol. 
We are very excited about the opportunity to open a tasting room in Sebastopol to showcase our wines and our family farming heritage!
