Boston Winery

The Boston Winery is truly a hidden gem! My boyfriend and I had a lovely experience yesterday evening at their Saturday wine tasting. The winery had a nice, calm, welcoming atmosphere, and the staff were extremely kind and knowledgeable. All of the wines we tried (5) were delicious, and they give you a nicely sized pour - for $21 you can't beat it! I absolutely recommend coming here, and I am already excited to come back in the future.

Absolutely love the Boston Winery and the Bruno Family!!! The wine is excellent, Vito is knowledgeable and willing to teach, Ralph is mostly business focused but so great to see him relax a little. My family loves the pairings, we sometimes go just to chat it up with the Bruno guys like our extended family. Cannot speak highly enough about the Boston Winery. Brachetto Lady #1

The best experience ever! If you want to learn more about wine and how to pair it with your meals this is the place. Ralph and Vito makes the experience unforgettable. Highly recommend.

I brought my husband here as part of our day planned to celebrate his 50th. He was a little skeptical when he saw that they pick the wines for you for the tasting. We usually only like a select few types of wines but we were both blown away that we liked all 5 of the wines that were chosen for us! We never would have tried half of the wines we tasted if it were our choice. We liked the wine so much we bought 6 bottles. Safety protocols were followed and the staff was welcoming, kind, and knowledgeable. We will definitely be back to try more wines. They change the tasting menu each week.

I had an amazing afternoon sampling wine that pairs well with everything I consume each week. The Boston Blend is the perfect wine for the Fall weather. I cannot wait to go again.

Vito provides an excellent wine and food pairing event that highlights the quality of their handcrafted wines. He’s knowledgeable and makes this an enjoyable time. The welcoming and comfortable atmosphere adds to the experience. Their large selection of wines allows for everyone to find their favorite.

If I can give them 10 stars I would. By far the best, most welcoming winery I've ever been to in the northeast. Vito and Ralph were truly great host and made you feel like your apart of the gang. The history behind this place is pretty amazing too. Bought my dad a couple of bottles as well as for myself. Will DEFINITELY be coming back very soon for more fun.

Best hidden gem in Boston! Ralph & Vito are extremely knowledgeable, sharing all kinds of insights & even providing an impromptu tour of the winery. Thoroughly impressed with the quality of these handcrafted wines. We loved everything so much we left with six bottles & signed up for the wine club! Thanks for the fun & tasty tasting !!

Would give them 10 stars if I could!!! Such an adorable winery and a really sweet family running the show. Wine was incredible, and the pizza was the cherry on top! Best way to spend a Saturday afternoon, a must visit if you're in the Boston area.

We were heading to Boston Harbor Distillery but seen sign about winery and we were excited. As we pulled up and said let's go here before the distillery, as we stopped in and they were closed due to a wedding. Recommended to come back another time, in which we did. Boston Winery is a delightful surprise nestled outside the heart of the city. This urban winery offers an intimate escape from the hustle and bustle, providing a cozy ambiance perfect for wine enthusiasts and newcomers alike. The diverse selection of wines, expertly crafted on-site, showcases a commitment to quality and innovation. Overall great experience.

Wow! The place is full of barrels and barrels of wine and wine in bottles. Classic old fashion foundry building with simple updated interior. Tables are spread apart to allow our table hear the person in our group, but not at the other tables. Each time either Ralph or Vito, who also make the wine , came to our table with a new tasting they explain where the grapes came from, the name of the wine and characteristics etc. Very friendly place, and the wine for sale is better than any $30.00 or $40.00 Reserve Wine @ Liquor store!

Very cute winery in Dorchester, MA (even though it says Boston Winery in the name). I went there through an online app called Alohop (a small platform where people can discover fun experiences run by local businesses). Through the app, my bf and I got 2 vouches, $18 each, for 5 wine tastings and a few slices of pizza. It was very worth it! We had a great selection for the wine tastings and even bought one home. The staff was friendly and helped us understand the different wines we tasted. They conversed with us and it felt like we were on a tour. It was a very beautiful space inside. The tables were well spaced out so we did not feel cramped. There was even a cute shop to look at all the different wines they have made. I highly recommend Boston Winery to everyone and would go again soon when their official tours open up!

Had a great time at this family-owned winery. The tasting room is very spacious. We tried about 6 wines (1 white, 5 reds). I bought a bottle of the white. I only wish they had more wines available to taste because they had a lot of bottles in their wine cellar that I would have loved to try before buying. Definitely recommend to anyone in the area.

I went for a wine tasting back in March and it was lovely! The tables were very well spaced out, and we tasted 6 delicious wines. I left with 1 bottle of cabernet and 1 bottle of a white wine- both were polished off very quickly by friends and family. The staff was great and the barn where we had the tasting was very cute. The "pizza" we ate during the tasting was a bit odd but I assume they are required to serve some sort of food.

We came here after a historical tour and in much need of time to unpack what we learned and unwind. We walked in and were poured a couple glasses of wine before being taken on a tour of the back room. Our tour guide, Ralphie, was super knowledgeable and was very okay with all the questions I peppered him with. We had a great time and the wine itself was wonderful. We sampled five wines before purchasing the mixed white one that we adored. We came here to celebrate Valentine's Day and I loved the romantic vibe of the place. They also apparently do weddings -- which I may look into when the time comes. All of the wines were phenomenal but my favorite was the mixed white one and sparking red. They are a little sweeter so better to taste toward the end, but all very wonderful.

My fiancée and I had an amazing time here. We booked the indoor tasting for 90 mins which included 5 tasting and a individual pizza. The staff is extremely welcoming and friendly. Honestly, this place was nothing short of amazing. The customer service was unmatched from start to finish, looking forward to our next visit. Cheers!

Guys, I am #noshame a total wino. Husband and I *love* the Boston Winery. To give you an idea of how much we love them: in the 6 years we lived in California, we never became members for any winery, wine club, or tasting room. We came to a tasting here and joined without a second thought. They order quality grapes and bottle their own wines. It's such a great value if you love to drink wine and share it with friends. membership includes free monthly tastings! The wines are varied but all so good. We prefer drier, bolder reds but even the sweeter and white wines have been enjoyable. None of them have been boring or flat. The recommendations from staff have always been on point. The space is lovely, a great place to come for a date or with friends. You can ask for a quick tour to learn about their wine making process. Yay Boston Winery!

We recently had our daughter and son-in-law wedding at the Boston Winery. What a wonderful venue. The staff was very attentive, professional and kept the party going. All our guests remarked how unusual and beautiful the venue was. Michelle the event coordinator was wonderful to work with. Their wines are very tasty. We had a great time and we thank all at Boston Winery for making it happen.

DO NOT GO THERE. I attempted to go here and was met at the entrance by an extremely rude hostess who snarled "Do you have a reservation"? and telling me there wasn't any room (place was EMPTY) and then stating we HAD to do a tasting. We left a party at a wonderful place across the lot and were looking forward to a smaller chill place to hang. My daughter and I immediately left only to discover that others from our party were treated in the same despicable manner. Save your money and dignity and patronize the nearby distillery.

Went here last weekend with my boyfriend and had a wonderful time! We were greeted by Ralphie who took the time to explain how things work, show us around and start us off on our wine tasting. He was very knowledgeable about the wine and friendly to chat with as we tried them. We were taken on a tour of the room where they make the wine and learned all about the process and how the winery came about with the families history. It was a very nice relaxed atmosphere, they really do make you feel like you're part of the family. We will definitely be back!

This place was really nice! The reason why I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars is because I wish that the wines were lined up on the list from light to dark in terms of taste. My friend and I wanted to try a couple more wines after our initial tasting and so we thought going in the name order that as in, would match with what we wanted but it wasn't that way. Not a huge deal, either way the staff was very friendly and fairly knowledgeable on the wines that were served. The view is nice of the Boston Harbor and right next to a restaurant venue facility as well as the Boston Distillery. More than I thought there would be in the area we were going to. We would definitely go back! Oh, it was nice too they had a pizza option to have with the pairing.

Having visited wineries in Napa, Maryland, Virginia amongst others, I am well-versed in the winery experience. I can without a doubt say that Boston Winery will give you a unique and fulfilling experience. I had the pleasure of visiting Boston Winery with a few friends in celebration of our friend's 33rd birthday. We took the tour of the facility and learned the history of the winery from the grandson of the founder. After the tour, we resumed our wine tasting. I tried four wines with my favorites being the sparkling rose and the sweet red. In addition to our wine tasting, we enjoyed the complimentary pizza as well From the staff to the delicious wines, I enjoyed my visit. I would certainly return and recommend to friends!

Came here randomly as we left the Boston area, in a quiet area outside of Boston, Boston Winery is located near the water and the Boston Distillery just walking distance from it. Walking in, I had a good feeling about the place as all the tables were full and people were enjoying themselves. The atmosphere was a lot different from your more modern Wineries; this one having been convert from a warehouse or barn, there is cool natural appeal with the wood walls and lighting. There is a huge separate section from the "tasting room" that is used to host events and seems so romantic. There is a separate bottle area to grab the bottles of wine that you most enjoy. After checking out the place, we stopped at the bar and was greeted by the man working it. He had asked if we had a reservation and we didn't but he made it work as it was slow late in the afternoon. We were able to sample some Reds and Whites with a token taken for each tasting. We ended up purchasing a bottle of Red for our dad after each one out doing the one before that. As the day got a little more busier, the service got to be a little more worst as large parties came in with the idea of enjoying themselves a little too much. Wanting to leave with our bottle, it was hard to get his attention and we almost ended up leaving without purchasing the bottle as we had paid at the beginning. I would imagine that ringing out people that are ready to leave to make more room at the bar would be an ideal business model, but maybe maintaining a certain persona with certain groups of people is more important and that left a sour taste in my mouth. Always willing to try a place again and will come back for the wine and atmosphere. One last thing that I just remember, a friendly advice to my fellow wine patrons that travel and enjoy the glass a little too much. When in a parking lot, as we were pulling out, a conversation in front of a potentially moving car is not the best place to be. There is no excuse for rudeness.

This is always a good time and the wine is absolutely delicious. I definitely recommend going here for a fun date night or hanging out with friends.

Such a fantastic experience (even though our visit started with a mild hiccup around our reservation). My daughter just turned 21, so I thought this would be a fun thing to do during her college break. Our host was so nice, and he told fascinating stories about the history of the winery and the different wines. The past wine tastings I've been to have been much more formal, but this one was really chill and fun. Make sure you ask for the "ninja" wine. (A super popular sparkling sweet red.)

What a find as my sister in law booked this venue for her daughter's bridal shower and this location was perfect. It is gorgeous inside with the lights hanging from the ceiling and great for photos. Ralphie and Michelle were wonderful and very accommodating making everything seamless. There were others who I can't remember their name but please know you are in good hands here. The food is catered from the restaurant next door and was excellent and paired well with the wine provided. Thank you again for taking such good care of us. Everyone raved what a wonderful time they all had and looking forward to going back this summer with friends.

After coming here twice, I love this place. The wine is fantastic, especially the Without Papers, the sparkling Italian red (literally tastes like alcoholic grape juice) and the Don Ciccio. You get 3 decent sized samples for $10 or you can just buy it by the glass. The owner always comes out and offers tours which I loved hearing the history of the company. Makes you feel good supporting a family owned, local business.

Great wines and great Host . We ended up buying a case plus 1 other bottle . If you live in Massachusetts you have to go! We order a tasting on line and also got the flat bread pizza.

They deserve a great review but I'm scared the secret will get out! This place is awesome - delicious wine for extremely reasonable prices, beautiful ambience, socially distanced, and friendly staff. We've done the tastings a few times but recently went back for a donut and wine pairing with Union square donuts - this pic is the real deal! Hoping they do more events partnering with local vendors...such a fun night!

We have found a winery on the East Coast that we feel rivals the best of the West Coast. Ralph and Vito are very knowledgeable of the industry and make great wines from white to dark reds and everything in between. The hospitality they give will make you feel as if you're at home with family. We highly recommend you go for a tasting and taste for yourself.

Best winery I've ever been too. We accidentally came in the wrong date and they weren't even opened but since my sister was in town they gave us our wine tasting anyway! Really went above and beyond and I will be back! Wines were also all amazing!

We had my best friend's Bridal Shower at Boston Winery and it was the best experience. Michelle, the Director of Events, was absolutely fantastic. She was extremely helpful, especially when the pandemic hit and our plans had to change pretty drastically. Michelle was open to doing the shower in shifts to keep within capacity limits, she was very knowledgeable about the wine and the food options, as well as set up and all tweaks that had to be made to keep everyone safe during these strange times. She was helpful with suggestions but never pushy. All questions were answered very quickly and professionally. Our server on the day of the shower, Mary, was also so great. She was very pleasant and the service was quick, which was important given the shifts were only 1.5 hours at a time. I would 100% recommend Boston Winery for any and all events.

What a great hidden gem this is! I guess technically it is in Boston but it lies on the Boston border of Dorchester and Quincy. For $10 you get a tasting of 3 full glasses of wine as well as a very educational experience(When you pruchase 2 bottles your tasting is free).. Out of the 3 I tried the Muscat was my favorite. They told me that they get most of their grapes from California through brokers and the whole wine making process is on site. They even gave us a tour of their entire facilities. The price of their bottles are very reasonable, from about $18 - 22. They will even let you buy a barrell of wine and rebrand the bottles yourselves as you can take part in the wine making. Very cool spot.

Stopped by for a tasting after a day of sightseeing. Opted not to do the tour because we had done enough running around for the day and wanted to just relax. I tried three whites while my boyfriend tried three reds. We then got a glass each to enjoy. He chose the red blend while I had the Chardonnay I believe. Everything was perfect and there were even flat bread pizzas to enjoy.

Holy crap! What a find! Where has this place been (well, apparently it has been here, I just didn't know) I was down checking out the Hall across the parking lot for a fundraising event, and when I turned around, I was like WOW, a winery. In boston. Sweet! So I stopped in, on a weekday. no tastings, tours or anything going on. I looked in the store, walked around.. and a nice gentleman came out. he was the owner. Told me a little about the history, showed me around a little, told me what they do (including winemaking - which is SO COOL, but well, lets face it, where am I going to store 288 bottles of wine - and I don't drink THAT much) So they have a nice selection of wines, at good prices, and good blend I got a white merlot, which I have never seen. Excited to try it, had not yet Also got a Meritage, and WOW. unbelievable fast, nice and smooth, not to dry, and lasting flavor. I was FLOORED. Second best red wine I have ever had (and if you take into cost, the best, since the other one is $200+/bottle) anyone that likes wine MUST check this place out. it is barely in Boston, on the Dorchester/Quincy line - but also right on the water. Great wine, nice people,and local is always good!

Boston Winery has wine tasting every Saturday. Both my friend and I are wine lovers, so we figured - what better thing to do in this dreadful winter? For $10 per person, you get 3 chips, each can be traded for a glass of wine. Staff were all very friendly. Although I like wine, I am by no means an expert. So I appreciated it when the bartenders made recommendations. There were also small, thin crusted, pizza to snack on. The venue had wooden tables and was decorated with Christmas lights and barrels. The dim lighting and ambiance made it the perfect setting for a date or hanging out. I imagine it would be an excellent party/reception venue as well. We were also given a tour in the back of the winery. Our tour guide was very knowledgable and acquainted us with their wine making process. They don't have a vineyard - they get their grapes mostly from California. The winery is quite small, so don't expect anything grand. This is not Napa valley. Overall I really enjoyed my visit here! I found a wine that I liked that I would never have discovered otherwise. I even picked up a bottle to bring home. I would definitely recommend all wine enthusiasts to check this place out! Note: No need to make a reservation unless you come in a group larger than 10.

I went here about a month ago for their yoga/wine tasting event, which right off the bat gives them 5 stars. What a cool, unusual event!! Although doing yoga on the hard, dirty, cement floor was a bit gross (and the cheese smell kept hitting our noses), the class was great and it was a cool environment. The after-class wine tasting was great - I tried 3 wines and my favorite was the first. I think it's their special blend (I can't remember the name)! The homemade pizzas were FANTASTIC and I wish they'd had more! The private tour of the barrels was very interesting and the staff is all so knowledgeable and friendly. I definitely look forward to going back and trying more wine!

Absolutely a must visit winery. The team is extremely welcoming, knowledgeable in the history of the area and will keep you laughing while learning something new. We are planning a second visit with friends and will have dinner at Venezia as well. The wine selection is excellent. Malbec is my new favorite.

My Scottish boyfriend and I visited here on a rainy April Saturday. The Boston Winery was bustling - a bachelorette party (a Hen party), a baby shower, and a wine tasting. Mike, the sommelier, was a great host, very knowledgeable about his fine wines. There are over 100 people that make their own wines here too. Someday, I'll make my own wine there. We also loved the free pizza that they served! We bought the Brachetto, a nice sparkling rose. We will have it tonight with our roasted chicken. We will return this coming summer.

Quaint. Hip. Local. Small family winery with focus on non-preserved wine sold white label to local restaurants and home wine enthusiasts. Took the tour which is a one room overview of the wine making process and history of the winery (since 2006). Tastings $10/head and includes slides of pizza from local kitchen area beside bar. A good excursion and alternative to the 20something beer brawls at Sam Adams in seaport.

I didn't do a full tasting or tour, but stopped by while I was in the area. I can say for certain that I'll be back! The guys who are running this place are down to earth, helpful, and love what they do. They took the time to help me pick out a great selection of wines as they were setting up for a private event, and they still gave me their full attention. Thanks - I'll be back soon!

Went here on Sunday for a wine tasting with my girlfriend and we couldn't have asked for more. Delicious "organic" wines that were perfectly described and suggested to our liking by Vito. A great winery that is family owned and operated. This place will definitely satisfy your craving for craft wines

My girl friend and I had an amazing tasting. Despite the COVID set up Vito did an amazing job helping us learn about wine and the production process of the Boston Winery wines we tried. I would come back because of the experience Vito gave us. Very very knowledgeable.

Love this winery! Have been here for a Bridal shower, bachelorette, and tasting. The people are very sweet and helpful. The girl who did our tasting this past Saturday was so sweet, personable, and was well educated on the wines. The rose is my absolute favorite rose!

I took my mother here as a part of her 60th bday celebration and we had an absolute blast. It's a family owned winery and they make you feel like one of the family from the moment you walk in. The two brothers who own it were constantly walking around and interacting with people, inviting people to come to their hourly tour of their storage/production room, and staff were even making free pizza for folks to take while they were drinking wine. I bought the $15 tasting and tour package, and I have to say it's a great deal. It includes 5 tasting glasses and a 30-40 minute tour of the facility. One of the brothers who co-owns the winery led our tour and it was very clear he was super knowledgeable about the history of the area and the wine. The tasting room is absolutely gorgeous as well, and the wine was delicious. I definitely will be making a trip when I go back!

To start, all the wine is amazing. This is such a fun, beautiful spot for any time you are looking for something cool in the city (or really just anything in general). But what keeps us coming back is that the family is so hospitable. Every time we've been there, one of the owners has been behind the bar. And they are just the nicest people. So overall, the experience is amazing. Every customer is special. AND the wine is amazing. What else could you ask for? Tonight we went to the Thanksgiving pairing/tasting and brought some friends with us - all the food was fantastic and the wine was, of course, phenomenal. But in addition to that, Vito made the whole experience special and explained all the pairings. So we got great food, great wine, and a really special event. I just absolutely love this place.

great spot. so glad i found online. will return and even bought a few bottles to take home.

This place might be great, but they are so hard to get in touch with I would never even know. I was attempting to plan a corporate event outing here and I called and emailed numerous times with no response.

Ralph was by the far the best tour guide we have ever had. He is extremely knowledgeable about his history and wine. 10/10 highly recommended!!

This is a great little winery. We got three samples and they showed us how they make wine there in the middle of Boston. It's pretty cool and a fun way to spend an afternoon.

What a wonderful place. One minute I was in Dorchester, the next thing I know, I felt like I was transported into what felt like a centuries old winery in the middle of the Italian countryside. An eclectic mix of fieldstone and brick walls accentuated by the occasional wrought iron fixture made for a welcoming entrance into a facility surrounded by all the trappings of a modern facility with all the charm and character of a much older winery. Oh, and did I mention that the two wines I sampled were exceptional....... Gracie!

This is a hidden gem!!!!! My husband, son, and daughter spent a few hours doing a tour and tasting. I can't believe we have lived 20 minutes away, and not heard of the winery. What a learning experience!!! Ralph gave us the tour, and knows the history of every barrel. Everybody working interacted with us in a friendly way. No pressure to buy, but that didn't stop us from buying 30 bottles. I must say the wine is amazing!!! And I am a wine snob!! I plan on having an event here in the future...have to find a reason for one! They were setting up for a wedding as we were leaving. Amazing, Also, for the non wine drinkers, walk over to the distillery to try the coffee liqueur and maple cream liqueur..and scotch. Also after tasting, purchased theses as gifts. Espresso Martini .

Are you looking to go for a wine tasting without driving hours out of the city and don't mind that there aren't grapevines in the yard? This is the place to check out! I saw it on TV once and had a mental note to go. The building that houses the winery is something you would expect in Tuscany, beaming with history and old charm. Little will you remember that you are in Dorchester. The owner Bruno, straight from Italy, gave a thorough review of all the wines and the making that happens right at the facility. The grapes are all flown in from CA and processed the same way in there as if they were home grown. They age the wine in barrels there until they are ready for bottling. The tasting with sommelier Sam was hands on. We received a plate of cheese and pepperoni to taste in conjunction with the wines to bring out the flavors. All the wines we tried were fantastic. I loved the Muscat Cannelli and the Super Tuscan. We bought a bottle of both. I enjoyed the Cannelli on a lazy weekend afternoon and will be going back for more. The charge for the tasting is $10 a person, but if you buy a bottle it is waived. Bottle prices range from high teens-$20's. The wines are very high quality and worth the prices. Many have won awards. The tasting times are limited, I think just Saturdays from 1-4. The visit was a mini wine education and the tastings were plentiful. Put this place on your weekend agenda!

One of my all time favorites - mostly during the colder times of the year (which I dread thinking about right now in the middle of this beautiful summer! Cringe!! #Not ABigFanOfWinter). The wine is definitely good. One has to give credit to the management for taking such good care of this unique set up and the fact it is so close to the city. And Kudos to the staff as well. Some of the best bar tenders and waiting staff I have seen in the city (and really brilliant for Dot!) I have been here several times with coworkers for holiday parties and with a bunch of friends for special events. It is recommended to call and check before hand because there is almost always an event going on. I recommend going here for some fun wine tasting and buy some wine that you like and then hop on to Venezia next door for some good food and some more drinks. And remember - always get a cab or have a Designated Driver tag along! Again - always call before going to make sure they don't have an event going on.

Who knew this was even in Boston? I didn't, and have been here for years- but it is here and it is a fun little activity to do. I went one saturday with the boy, we got there for the last tasting, probably was around 5pm (maybe 6, not sure). There were two other couples already in the back where the tasting happens. The staff was really laid back and friendly. It was $10 a person, and you get 3 tasting chips. The tasting was really nice, the wine was good, and the staff was very knowledgable about their wine. It seems to be a family thing. They showed us the barrels of grapes that were fermenting (or whatever they do in-between being grapes and wine) They really explained the whole process, I had a god time! They brought us out a pizza to snack on while we tasted which was a pleasant surprise.

Awesome outdoor seating. Very COVID friendly, knowledgeable and friendly staff, and above all, really tasty wine! You can also pick up a 6 bottle case of wine for a steal!

This place is great! I took my mom who has been to wineries all over the country and we both agreed that the 10 dollar fee for the wine tasting and tour was real a steal. We got 3 full glasses of awesome wine followed by a very friendly tour and we got to keep the wine glass. The grapes are from shipped in from Napa or Tuscany, or wherever you want, then You stomp, You bottle, You label and You enjoy. The deal with this place is that you fall in love with the wine and the experience , then you figure out how to get in on the action by making your own wine. It seems expensive at first, but it works out to be only 12 bucks a bottle for some really nice, high quality stuff. I'll be stomping grapes in no time.
