"The Donum Estate is both an open-air art gallery and a winery. Stunning sculptures from famous artists like Ai Weiwei and Keith Haring stand in the middle of the sprawling vineyards and lavender field - and all three wine tasting experiences include a tour of the grounds. They also offer bite-sized food pairings made with seasonal produce from their farm." - julia chen 1
"A Carneros tasting destination that pairs serious wine—notably pinot noirs and chardonnays—with an extraordinary outdoor sculpture park. Visitors stroll among more than 50 works from major contemporary artists (including Yayoi Kusama, Ai Weiwei, Keith Haring, and Fernando Botero) and can book a guided tasting-plus-art tour (tastings start around $100). In 2024 a new sound sculpture called Hyperspace was added, underscoring the property’s focus on art as much as on wine." - Bailey Berg, Tim Chester, Jessie Beck

"This special slice of Sonoma features an open-air art gallery with more than 40 large-scale sculptures, like a towering, mirrored heart on a hill. Donum’s wine and food experiences include a tour of the art collection, vineyards, farm, and lavender fields, though the Explore Experience ($150, available daily) does so via an all-terrain vehicle and commences in the tasting salon for a flight of Donum’s reserve, single-block, and library pinot noirs. The Discover Experience ($95, available daily) on the other hand, consists of a walking tour and an outdoor comparative tasting of three Sonoma appellations. Each wine is paired with a bite and the culinary team incorporates as much of the land as possible into the menu, including estate olive oil, flowers from the garden, and even cover crop from the biodynamic vineyards." - Jess Lander
