...coming through the Anderson Valley you may want to stop at the famous Boonville Hotel for lunch and winery advice.
It's been a while since I've been there, but Navarro has decent pinot noir (and a non-alcoholic wine) and Roederer Estate has my favorite CA champagnes plus it's a fun tasting room.
There are so many wineries now in the Russian River area it is difficult to pick just a few.
Try Gary Farrell for pinot noir and Gamba and Limerick Lane for zins. Again you can ask folks there what they recommend.
As for buying wine, it is hard to beat the selection and prices at Safeway. The wineries have to charge full price unless you join their wine club. The specialty wine shops will have a deeper selection but higher prices.
Have a great time.
