Bennett Mountain, also commonly known as Bennett Peak, is a 1909 ft summit in the Sonoma Mountains of California. Located on the west edge of Annadel State Park, it separates Bennett Valley in the Russian River drainage basin from Sonoma Valley in the Sonoma Creek drainage basin. Bennett Valley was named for James N. Bennett, an emigrant from Illinois who settled in the area in the 19th century. The mountain was burned following the October 2017 Northern California wildfires.

Viticulture

Grapes were planted on Bennett Mountain as early as 1862, when Isaac DeTurk planted 30 acre at the base of its western slope. By 1878 he was producing 100000 USgal of wine from his own and purchased grapes at a winery on Grange and Bennett Valley roads. Since 2003, the summit has formed the eastern edge of the Bennett Valley AVA.
