The ultimate winery experience as you saddle up for a beautiful guided trail ride through the vineyards of our picturesque Petaluma site, then be treated to a guided wine tasting.

Arrive to be greeted by the Hallmark Farm team and fitted with helmets and participate in a briefing all while getting to know the horses by the hitching rail. All horses are specifically selected based on your needs from seasoned steeds of the famous Hallmark Farm in Woodside owned by Megan Jones (Silver medal Olympian, Equestrian Hall of fame member, Dual Olympian, World championship Medalist in Aachen Germany) and husband James Deacon.

After the briefing and any questions you will saddle up and perform some basic maneuvers while supported by your trail guide, then set off for approximately 45 mins guided trail ride around a designated course. There will be opportunities to stop for photos and some magnificent hills and vineyard views along the way as your guide will provide commentary on the site and history of Petaluma.

After returning your steed to the hitching rail for some rest, photos and a brush down, you will progress to the cellar door for some welcome refreshments and a guided wine tasting. Experience a curated wine tasting from our brands Petaluma and Croser including our flagship range to understand the ethos of Petaluma and our obsession with distinguished vineyards and sourcing our fruit from the best regions. These elegant wines are classics in both style and regionality, and a must have in the cellar.

Finish the tasting on the spectacular deck in the warmer months or by the fire in the cooler months.
