Pennyroyal Farmstead and Winery is committed to producing handcrafted w**e, cheese and farmstead fare exclusively from our estate farm in Boonville, California. Owner Sarah Bennett oversees the entire operation & manages the vineyards, all while producing our small-lot estate w**es. Cheesemaker and herd-master Erika McKenzie-Chapter runs both the creamery and the dairy, allowing her to select genetic and supplemental diets for elevated cheese production. Our pampered goats and sheep munch on wild grasses and proteinaceous hay that blanket our farmstead and vineyard. The milk from our animals is transformed into both fresh and aged cheeses just steps from the animals' pastures. Like our grapes, Pennyroyal cheeses reveal a strong sense of place. By integrating animal husbandry and viticulture, we avoid the pitfalls of monoculture -- each farming endeavor enhances and compliments one other. In addition, our farmstead also has a seasonal culinary garden to compliment our w**e and cheeses, all the while showcasing a taste of place. Our estate kitchen produces a wide array of seasonal fare, centered around our bountiful farmstead. Stop by for a visit, and stay for a glass and a bite.
