Ram's Gate Winery operates as a Carneros-based producer of small-lot wines, with production focused on Chardonnay and Pinot Noir sourced from its estate. Founded in 2011 by Jeff O’Neill, the winery emphasizes vineyard-driven quality and sustainable farming practices, working with winemaker Joe Nielsen. The estate vineyard is managed with organic methods and has earned certification from California Certified Organic Farmers (CCOF), underscoring its commitment to environmentally conscious winemaking. Located in Sonoma, California, the operation ties its craft to the Carneros region where the Bay meets the valley. In 2024, Ram's Gate Winery was acquired by O'Neill Vintners & Distillers. In 2025 the winery launched an agroforestry initiative, planting heirloom fruit trees within vineyard rows to enhance soils, increase biodiversity, and sequester carbon.
