Tara Bella Vineyard and Winery

Since 1986, Kevin and Wendy Morrow have had a dream of owning a small family winery in Sonoma County. Kevin has been receiving awards since he started learning to make wine 27 years ago. In 1995, Kevin & Wendy’s friends, Rich and Tara were fortunate to locate and secure 8 acres of virgin, undeveloped land, nestled in the beautiful rolling hills of the Russian River Valley. The property was surrounded by lush vineyards owned or contracted by some of Sonoma and Napa’s finest wineries. In 1998, they committed themselves to building an Estate winery and vineyards by planting Clone 4 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon on the west 3 acres. Then in 2005, they planted Clone 7 Estate Cab to the east 3 acres. In 2010, having wanting to retire for many years, Rich and Tara approached Kevin and Wendy with an offer “they couldn’t refuse”, to continue the legacy. Kevin adheres to making wine, beautifully handcrafted, the “old fashioned” way. He believes that great wines are made in the vineyard. Kevin and Wendy, along with their youngest son, Dillon, do all the work themselves.
