Trail One · The Spine
Baily Winery
One of the valley’s long-running family names, with Bordeaux-leaning estate wines and a loyal local following.
Baily has never had a marketing moment, which is roughly the point. The name comes up when you ask someone who lives here where they actually drink, and the answer tends to arrive with a shrug, as though it were obvious. A reputation built at that speed is hard to fake and harder to lose.

Before you drive
This page is an independent guide, not the winery. Hours, tasting fees and
reservation rules change season to season — and several rooms are
reservation-only on weekends. Check Baily Winery’s own site or call before
building the day around it.
