See What The Wine Spectator says about Kenwood:
Not familiar with Kenwood? Look what the Wine Spectator just wrote in their June 15, 2008 edition about the area, 'There are beautiful wine roads all over the world, rambling through Tuscany and Provence, or along the Rhine in Germany's Rheingau. But you needn't cross the ocean to find some. The route, coming into Kenwood as you drive north through Sonoma Valley, the mountains ribbed with hillside vineyards, is in the same league.' Experience the much more laid back atmosphere of Sonoma vs Napa valley where it is not uncommon to have the wine maker pouring his wines, the staff more friendly and often where there is no tasting fee. While there are plenty of wineries to choose from in Sonoma Valley (over 40), should you decide to experience more of what the wine country has to offer, the Maple Cottage is centrally located. Driving times to other famous wine regions from the Maple Cottage: Napa 40 min, Carneros 20 min, Calistoga 30 min, Russian River 25 min, Healdsburg 35 min
