18 Matheson & Bill's Cellar
WILLIAMSON WINES · DOWNTOWN HEALDSBURG
18 Matheson & Bill's Cellar
Good wine. Good food. Good company.
Just steps from the Healdsburg Plaza, two neighboring Williamson experiences offer different ways to enjoy the pleasures of wine country.
At 18 Matheson, our chefs bring wine and food together in carefully considered pairings. Next door at Bill's Cellar, 20 Matheson, the atmosphere is more casual: a glass of wine, something good to nibble and the pleasant possibility of making a new friend.
Both spaces are also available for private gatherings, from intimate business meetings to celebrations with family and friends.

Wine & Food Tasting Experiences
A fine wine is a pleasure on its own. Put the right food beside it, and something rather wonderful happens.
At 18 Matheson, our winery chefs prepare small, thoughtfully composed dishes to accompany our wines. Fresh ingredients, intriguing spices and unexpected combinations reveal new dimensions of aroma, texture and flavor.
The experience is seated, relaxed and personal. There is plenty to discover, no examination at the end, and every reason to linger.
