Alta Orsa Winery | Regenerative Wines & A Different Kind of Tasting in Hopland, Mendocino County
Visit Alta Orsa in Mendocino’s Wine Alley
Alta Orsa Winery is a small, family-owned winery rooted in the hills of Mendocino County, California, where farming and craft are inseparable. Founded with a commitment to regenerative agriculture, Alta Orsa stewards its vineyards as living ecosystems, integrating practices like composting, cover cropping, and livestock grazing to build soil health and resilience over time.
In the cellar, the approach is minimalist and intentional. Each wine is made to reflect the character of the vineyard and the season, with a focus on balance, freshness, and structure. The portfolio is centered on thoughtfully farmed, small-lot wines that speak clearly of place.
Visitors are welcomed not into a traditional tasting room, but into the landscape itself. Tastings are hosted outdoors at a simple table beneath a cork tree, overlooking the vineyards and valley beyond. The experience is personal, unhurried, and grounded in a direct connection to the land where the wines are grown.
Alta Orsa is as much about relationships as it is about wine—between farmer and field, vintage and vessel, and the community that gathers around the table.
