“Next year will see the arrival of the I 08-room Appellation Healdsburg,
the brainchild of celebrity chef Charlie Palmer and 30-year hospitality veteran Christopher Hunsberger. The culinary ­focused Sonoma property, which will also include 53 apartments for staff, is slated to offer more than 50 educational experiences led by locals and centered around craft, food, and farming, such as a coffee cupping with a roaster. Call it a fresh way to harvest the best of California. “

Thank you to for featuring Appellation Healdsburg in this roundup of wine country’s best new places to eat, drink, and stay.

Employees are the heart of our Hotel. Today, we honor the incredible contributions they make to our future organization and look forward to growing as we move closer and closer to opening our doors to our communities in 2024.

"Winemaking isn't the only “making” happening in Healdsburg. Visitors can try their hand at skills such as block printing, moss wall art, and Japanese sashiko mending. There’s even a 19th-century North American art form called punch needle that curious types can try at Crafted at Appellation, where classes led by local designers are paired with premium wine and legitimately delicious bites ( is Appellation’s co-founder, after all). It's a lot cooler than the sip-and-paint sessions of yore."

Thank you for including our Crafted Series on "Here’s what you need to know to plan the perfect trip to Healdsburg, California." We couldn't agree more!
