DA Ranch

By far the best winery in the route. The property is huge with ample sitting in and outside. Several fire pits to sit around. You can get your wine and roam around the property. Staff are all very friendly. The only thing I could say is maybe add another restroom as there is only one and at times you may be waiting to use it. Live music and food truck is usually there. We love to come here and relax. They allow you to smoke as long as you dont bother other guests.

We enjoyed DA Ranch. Be careful when turning off the main highway. You go only a short distance up the gravel road, then turn left at the DA Ranch entrance. Do not continue on that gravel road, up the hill. Al of the signs on that road going up are for something else :) It was a nice sunny day today, but it was quite warm. We got there about 1 PM. We went inside the main house where the tasting room. We grabbed a table but it ended up being too noisy inside. There was a large group and they were talking quite energetically. We ended up moving to a table on the deck around the main house. There are other places on the property with seating in shade as well. We bought a couple of glasses of wine (Willow White and Malvasia - both chilled whites) and began to enjoy them at our table on the porch. I walked over to the food truck placed our lunch order. I was given a pager. The food took about 15 minutes and was really tasty. We shared an order of Vegetable Spring Rolls (deep-fried) and a Southwest Turkey Melt sandwich. All of the staff that I encountered at the winery were very nice. There was one woman in particular, who was sort of a floater. She was everywhere doing all sorts of things. She was quite helpful to us. The grounds are beautiful here. There’s a babbling creek that runs on the side of the main house. There’s a large swing suspended from a tree in the front yard. There are private areas that can be rented out and other small areas to hang out in. They allow well behaved leashed dogs on property and we saw several. And they have goats! There were a number of goats in a 2 acre fenced area next to the parking lot. We both enjoyed the wine and lunch, but it was a warm day, we were sweating and decided to call it a day. On a cooler day, I would enjoy coming back again on a day that's a little bit cooler. A lot of wine tour companies include DA Ranch on their tours. There’s a reason why. Check it out.

Visited on a very busy Saturday afternoon and was very happy to find local music, a food truck, and great wine. Plenty of space to find a quiet corner if you like or be around for people watching. Will definitely be back!

Our wine tour took us to this vineyard. What is a lovely place. The grounds are beautiful. The wine is fabulous.

Absolutely gorgeous property, but that's about it. Parking is confusing. Like other reviews stated... They are the only place we've encountered in the area that gives you your flight only one glass at a time. It's annoying to have to keep coming back to the counter and wait in line for your next taste. I prefer to have all my tastes out at once so I can sit and relax and compare them to each other. The wine we did get was just ok.

I enjoyed every moment I spent in this place, an oasis in the middle of the desert. Overall atmosphere is peaceful and lovely.. the wine was delicious, the music beautiful, the food from food truck was not the best. Is a great place to thank God for the beauty of this world.

Visited DA Ranch on the Bliss wine tour. The grounds are beautiful… and that’s pretty much the highlight. The “wine tasting” was $20 for a very stingy 2-oz pour (but hey, it did include the glass 🙃). There were no tasting flights and no one explained the wines or talked about the history or winemaking process, which made it feel pretty impersonal. Overall, it felt overhyped, and I wasn’t impressed.

The property was absolutely gorgeous with beautiful views all around. I just wish there were more food options—some cheese or charcuterie plates would’ve been perfect, especially instead of relying on a food truck. It would also be nice if they allowed guests to bring their own snacks. The wines were just okay and pretty pricey—one glass was $26, which felt a bit steep.
