This winery is as fabulous for its service as the wines. The server was so caring and welcoming we felt like a part of a family. The server asked probing questions to identify where our wine preferences were before even starting our samples. She offered samples of products that were on special or sale. The cheese was FABULOUS. It was sold out, but she still offered the sample hoping we would come back to purchase in the future. The wine tasting price included a starter sample to determine our wine preference, 6 individual generous samples of choice, AND you got to keep the glass. The server would recommend the next tasting based on how we enjoyed the previous sample. Together, me and my friend really got to try 12 types of wine considering the sample size was large and the server didnt seem to mind us sharing. She even compared our differing tastes light heartedly and when one of us didnt like a sample, but the other did, she let the other finish the sample and didnt throw out the wine. The love music was please tell and fit the feel of the winery. She made light conversation with us outside of the normal wine tasting small talk and she even recommended other wineries to try; even though they were competitors. For being such an older winery, the feel of it was very new and cozy and warm. DEFINITELY recommend this winery over others in the area.

Visited on a weekend while the vineyard was hosting an arts and crafts show in the parking lot, apparently this happens every Sunday during the summer and fall. All types of food and gifts were being offered outside, from roasted nuts and jerky to woodworking and beadery. After browsing the vendors we went inside to try a few of the wines offered. Service was a bit slow for the tastings. There were several decent wines being offered with a selection that covered many types from dry to sweet. Flavors were good and prices fair (about average for local vineyards) $15-25 a bottle. Other than the waits for each wine we tasted, the experience here was very good. We enjoyed the time we spent on the property as an unexpected travel stop. I could see myself returning again if passing thru on a Sunday. While the vineyard was nice on its own the addition of the arts and crafts took it over the top and made it worth the little drive off the highway to visit.

Our parents brought us here. This one of there favorite places. Lute (not sure of the spelling) who works the Tasting room, was a pleasure to meet. She was very knowledgeable and very nice. She makes it almost a "Cheers" atmosphere, remembering who you are and things that youve talked about with her. The wine: as with anywhere, there are some good ones and some that werent my favorite. But for the most part, they serve up some excellent wines. The mix of service and wine make this a place I would definitely go to again when Im back in the area. I would say this is a must visit if your are in the region.

Recently had a wedding for my daughter. Very bad service and attitude. We were told one thing when we first visited and things changed two weeks before the wedding. There were no lights. When we asked the night of the wedding, we were told that "we did not pay for lights." We were not told or offered that lights were "optional." We were charged extra because the DJ took "extra time" to breakdown and carry away his equipment. Be careful if you are planning an event. Would not recommend to anyone.

22 varieties of grapes are grown at this vineyard that offer up a wide range of wine styles. For $5 you can do a wine sampling that includes 6 samples of your choice along with a sampling glass you get to take with you. On Sunday from 12-4 a small farmers market sets up in the parking lot. Weddings and events are also hosted here.

Been involved in two events at this venue, one dinner and one wedding. Both times the owners were helpful. Nice selection of wine and staff is willing to help recommend what to try, very knowledgeable! Beautiful venue for a wedding!

Went in for tasting recently. Fantastic decor and good wines. The host for our tasting had entertaining stories and was able to tell us about the wines extensively. Will be back to buy wine and enjoy evening festivities.

Kept seeing that blue sign in Santa Teresa each month 8 miles to this vineyard and finally took the yellow brick road. Smart man! One on one tasting, enjoyed the conversation, bought two bottles, will see you again!
