Presqu'ile Winery

Fantastic place to visit. Definitely get the mezzanine laung tasting experience. Everything was delicious and paired well. The wines are nice (its more about the experience) and the views are breathtaking. Really good place for a larger group.

Such a lovely afternoon spent at Presqu’ile! Our group enjoyed the wine and food tasting while sitting outside on a beautiful sunny day. The food was absolutely delicious, especially the potatoes, farmer’s cheese, hummus, and pita bread, and paired well with the different wines. The service was friendly and prompt. Highly recommend checking it out!

Absolutely love this spot—it’s hands-down our favorite place to visit in the valley! The wines are truly exceptional and speak for themselves, but let’s talk about Chef Julie for a second—she’s a culinary genius! Do yourself a favor and never skip the food option. Pair that with the stunning views outside, and you’ll find it impossible to leave. The staff here are the kindest, most attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable people—they make you feel so welcome! If you get a chance, don’t miss the Gamay and Aligoté—they’re absolute gems.

Love that this place is so close to our home 😆 and it’s a beautiful location. The staff is also very friendly. This is a go to place when someone from out of town comes to visit.

As someone always in search of the next adventure, I discovered one of my top five life experiences right here in Santa Maria at Presqu'ile Winery. And what better way to explore its spacious and enchanting grounds than on horseback? From the moment you arrive, the winery captivates you. The winding road through the vineyard leads to a stunning, modern building. We were warmly welcomed, fitted with helmets, and guided down the property to meet our horses. Now, let me preface this by saying I have an unreasonable fear of horses. But that didn’t faze our guide, who expertly introduced us to our horses and offered helpful riding tips. These horses, gentle and calm, seemed to truly enjoy their role as guides to the winery grounds. Their “day job” is training new riders—mostly kids. My horse, Kicks, was a 30-year-old snuggler who immediately put me at ease. When I stopped petting him, he nudged my hand, asking for more affection. As we set off, Kicks patiently followed my commands, guiding me through the experience. Understanding my anxiety, our guide's mother, Sue, walked alongside us the whole time, helping me overcome a lifelong fear. As we rode, we marveled at the rolling fields, mountains in the distance, and sightings of the coast just a few miles away. The rows of grapevines awaiting harvest gave us a glimpse of the future wine that would soon be tasted. After our ride, we were greeted with a crisp sparkling rosé—a perfect way to end the adventure and begin our wine tasting experience with a curated food pairing. We returned to the winery, soaking in the views, and settled by the fireplace to sip wine and enjoy good conversation. Our server, a Santa Maria native, was incredibly knowledgeable about their wines, which included chardonnays, pinot noirs, and syrah. She explained the wine-making process in detail and presented a spread of delightful bites to pair with each wine—from a fresh salad with hand-picked fruits and vegetables grown on the property to handmade hummus and a whipped goat and feta spread. The food and wine pairings were an experience in themselves. Our visit concluded with a tour through the winery's temperature-controlled cave, which stretches 60 feet underground, lined with barrels filled with aging wine. The tour ended on the terrace, where the breathtaking views once again left us in awe. From start to finish, the entire experience was extraordinary. If this winery wasn’t on your bucket list before, it certainly should be now.

Reservations are highly suggested. You should definitely get the picnic mezze which is a number of semi small plates of food that change seasonally. We went during the summer and it was so good we just returned a few weeks ago and we live at least 5 hours away. They have a good variety of wine at reasonable prices and a nice view.

The chef creating the mezze picnic and specials at this place was so impressive on top of amazing views of the valley and hills, gorgeous architecture and fantastic rosé, syrahs and pinots. We ordered the special gallette made from locally sourced ingredients and the mezze picnic and the ingredients the chef put together was hard to decribe but so satisfying and delicious. Must go, but also reservation is important it gets busy. Side note they allow leashed dogs. Beautiful grounds.

We came for the Friday live-music happy hour with young children and had a very enjoyable experience. I found it to be extremely kid friendly, or at least welcoming. In the parking lot, we passed a departing staff member and I confirmed I could bring children (a lot of wineries don’t permit children), and he said of course and pointed out the grassy areas as well as recommended the seasonal chocolate chip cookies (which were REALLY good albeit $5/pop). When we got inside a staff member was very friendly in explaining how the happy hour works (outside of happy hour it’s by reservation only but Friday evenings first-come, first-serve for seating). She was very nice and friendly when I asked if it was okay I brought food for my kids (normally they don’t allow outside food but can be flexible for kids// I expected this and had just brought them each a discrete snack box with their dinners). View was gorgeous at 6 pm. We enjoyed the live music… and actually wished she had played more. We tried the Chardonnay and Syrah as the website specified they specialized in those as well as Pinot. We also enjoyed the seasonal flat bread. Most groups seemed to go for a bottle of wine. This attests mostly to the kid-friendly nature of the event but there were a couple other groups with small children, diverted by coloring etc and mine enjoyed walking around the flowers and looking for bugs. Overall, everyone was very nice and everything was delicious and the atmosphere was very chill and relaxing for a Friday evening. I would definitely go back for the Friday evening happy hour.

Shawnee was an awesome wine educator. Her explanations really resonated with my experience and she was courteous and professional. The wines were elegant and well-balanced. I especially enjoyed having a side by side taste of the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir to capture the difference in the taste profile of the vineyards, estate and non-estate. The outdoor seating was very spacious and I loved that you are looking towards the ocean through the vineyards. Guests here can book a complete experience that includes horseback riding and one that includes wine and food pairing. I'm summary, my experience was epic and I hope to return. Thank you for the hospitality.

Presqu'ile Winery does a superb job of infusing the family's Southern roots and charm into an elevated California wine and culinary experience - and as a native of the Lowcountry of South Carolina who is a transplant to California, I feel well-qualified to make such a statement. I can't say enough about how exceptional the staff was and how grateful we all were for the day they graciously showed us. I've already told three wine connoisseur friends they absolutely MUST visit and I'm not done yet. Thanks again to all of you for a job extremely well done!

Location, location, location! View is wonderful. Ambiance is beautiful! Customer service fantastic! The meal is organic, farm to table. Exquisitely delicious, prepared and presented to entice and for one to indulge. My favorite wine is the sparkling white Rose; 2nd Santa Maria Pinot Noir. I highly recommend the winery for a lovely date, day out with friends, birthday celebration, or just because. Thank you Cheryl and Patrick for introducing us, and the invitation to enjoy a yummy lovely Sunday with you!

Picture perfect views all around when you're at Presqu'ile! The wine is delicious and bites are tasty too. They can get busy so I highly recommend making a reservation. There's some indoor seating a lots of space outside. Team is super friendly and helpful.

What an amazing experience and located so close to town! I came with a party of 4 on a Monday afternoon and opted for the tasting with the picnic. Total was about $90 pp but in my opinion it was worth it. Food was fresh and delicious. Server was attentive. Beautiful views even with the fog rolling in.

Beautiful views, good food and great wine. Found this place while looking at YouTube videos of things to do in the Santa Barbara area. I believe 3 or 4 different videos recommended Presqu'ile. Boy did they nail it. Choose to do the food and wine pairing. My least favorite of the 5 offerings was the salad and I loved it. The hummus - outstanding The chicken meatball - sooo good The roasted potatoes - killer But the burrata, goat cheese, Greek yogurt with strawberries - drop the mic. That concoction with the pita triangles was so amazing. We will be trying it ourselves whenever we have guests over. Oh and the wine. I liked all that I tasted. My favorites were the Estate Chardonnay, the Santa Maria Pinot and the Gamay. Lastly the service and view were amazing. So happy to have picked this place to come to while on vacation.

5 stars for the amazing Mezze Lunch! Good portion size for the price, especially paired with the beautiful scenery. Delicious salad. Divine creamy hummus. Heavenly fluffy home made cheese with a touch of honey. Brined olives that were not overly salty nor sour. I don't usually like potatoes, but these were lightly fried to perfection and seasoned perfectly with crunchy fried peanuts with a hint of chili. Fresh focaccia. Initially, the pita bread we received tasted stale and hard. Apparently, this was a new recipe. The server was kind enough to ask the kitchen for the original recipe pita bread, which was wonderfully soft. Absolutely the best meal that I have ever had in the Santa Maria and Arroyo Grande area! You have got to eat Mezze Picnic lunch at Presqu'ile Winery!!!

This is an absolutely beautiful winery. I came here for Marian Residency Graduation and they served up some of their wine. All the wine was delicious and clean tasting. Also the venue itself is stunning, we walked around and there are so many picturesque sections. Driving in is also a vibe and you get to see all the fresh fruits. What a spot!

This is one of my favorite wineries in all of the Central Coast! Shannon always treats us so great! The cheeseboard is a must! Views are to die for!

You would be hard pressed to find a more beautiful setting in Santa Maria than Presqu'ile beautifully appointed tasting room and patios. They have taken all the best parts of wine tasting, adding in coastal views, dog friendly sceneries, adding in some fantastic chard's and Pinot's. Thus building a winery experience that makes you feel so far from home yet still somehow.... So. Home. Don't skimp on the food pairing. Just don't. I'm warning you now. You'll be envious of your guests, as many were of us. There is an incredibly board of spreads and jams and all things fresh; pairing nicely with each and every wine. We loved the peacefulness of the estate. We were spread out, yet still in the mix. Our beagle June was loving the walking paths, and the shaded spots. It was truly a fantastic spot for well behaved dogs. We also were pleasantly surprised at the quality of guests that were more than willing to mingle and socialize - something a little more nuanced for us with several decades of wine tasting experience. We loved the social nature of it. Maybe it was just the vibe of the day but we were totally into that walk-about wine culture! We do wish they offered our dog a water bowl, something every other winery offers. And while we bring our own portable water container it would have been a nice offering. And while we never felt June was not accepted we also wasn't as loved on as other wineries. But that's ok. Not every winery or worker has the same affinity for dogs. Lucky for us we had several neighbors that gave her plenty of love and attention. We will most definitely be returning as the views and estate wines are worth the visit. As we slowly drop some of our Paso memberships in lieu for Edna and Bien Nacido, Presquile just might be next.

Beautiful winery! Delicious food! Great, friendly staff! We came for the view, but been coming back for the food and of course the view again! Not exactly a wine drinker myself, but you can't live on the Central Coast of California and not going to wineries. We are lucky enough to be only 10mins away from this gorgeous winery. The view is one of the best, if not the best, in the area. This place is also enormous! (73 acres!) Not only do they grow their own grapes here, a lot of the vegetables and flowers they use in the food also come from their own gardens! Their food menu also changes daily, which gives me even more reasons to keep coming back. Their wine club is a great option if you want to visit at least 2-3 times/year. They also have members only events for food/wine tasting, concert, etc...We don't even like wines that much but we had to sign up for their wine club, cuz we just can't resist the delicious food pairs with the beautiful view of the central coast. Also, having family members coming to visit often from out of town is another great reason to sign up, so we can bring them here to be amazed!

Anyone who follows my reviews knows my honesty. When one of my Best friends wanted to come here for his birthday I was like "why are we going 30 + minutes from home, we have lovely wineries closer". Well let me tell you, it's worth the drive. The views, wine, atmosphere, and service were beyond amazing. However, I do think our Sommelier is what made our experience extraordinary. Her name was Lindsay. We don't know much about wine and therefore, sometimes we feel a little judged when asking what may be simple questions. Lindsay, made us feel comfortable with our basic questions. I hate to say this because we did LOVE this place but please note (at least today) the customers do not converse with one another.

Beautiful winery! I met up with some friends and they had already finished their food and part of the wine tasting. They said the food was great. Obviously true because they didn't leave any for me Lol. I had a glass of the Rose Pinot Noir. It was very good! My friends ended up having some too and we all agreed that was the best. Our server was wonderful! She was professional and friendly. Parking was easy. I thought it was a great place to meet with friends and hope to go back again soon.

The service was outstanding and the food was so fresh and melted in my mouth! The flavors were unreal and the vibe of the winery made me so happy! You feel super comfortable here and it's beautiful! Thank you for such a fun day! We can't wait to come back!

Devine Food & Wine experience! From the moment we drove into this property, it was beautiful endless rows of grape vines up to the hilltop. Our party of 6 was greeted with a welcome glass of sparkling wine. We were walked over to our table which had a cute personalized birthday sign. Our table was on the middle level of the grand terrace overlooking the outdoor amphitheater. It was a nice warm sunny day and we appreciated the umbrella over our table. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable. First, we started with the white wines and progressed to the red wines. Soon after, an impressive mezze-inspired platter was brought out featuring pita, veggies, cheese, hummus, salad, and chicken meatballs. ChefJulie utilizes ingredients directly from the estate's garden which gives the food explosive flavor of freshness and vibrancy. Everyone in my party was fascinated by the food, wine and ambience of this amazing estate.

All went well, amazing view! , amazing wine! , amazing food! , amazing ambience! . Last but not least. The crews are amazing! And so welcoming. We had been members since they open the winery. And if you have not come to visit yet? You are missing out.

Presquile was a dream. I asked many people for recommendations on this area and this is the place I landed on. After reviewing online, Presquile was often overlooked and not often on the "best wineries" list. This place is incredibly underrated. Firstly, the atmosphere is incredible. Beautiful view of the vineyard and amazing fresh smell. Super modern building. The service was great. Although our waiter wasn't very confident, she was still very nice and personable. The wine was pretty good. We ordered the tasting menu, which was only supposed to come with four I believe. They ended up pouring us at least six glasses because they had bottles they were letting people try for free. The food was the highlight of Presquile. This was the freshest food I've ever tasted. Seriously. It was straight out of their garden or from other local farms. I believe nothing was from further than 60 miles away. You have to taste it to believe it. The cold soup was probably my favorite. The tri tip was incredible Smokey. The cheese... the CHEESE. Wow so fresh. Even the lettuce was wildly good. If I go back to the area, I'm going back to presquile. I recommend you to do the same.

A Beautiful Place For Food And Wine..... Friends introduced us to the Presqu'ile winery during the summer of 2023...we succumbed to its charms and joined the Wine Club. Since that time, we've made 3 more visits with the following impressions: Pros: - The grounds are gorgeous. The patio area for outside dining is huge and multi-tiered with views of hills and farmland. Hard to believe you're on the outskirts of a city with more than 100,000 people. - The food is amazing. Yes...I'd mention food ahead of wine. The platters ($35 per person, but $30 for Wine Club members with a minimum of 2 people) are some of the best things I've tried anywhere. A combination of farm fresh ingredients and tapas style dishes create a picnic you'd normally find along the Mediterranean. Healthy and remarkably tasty. Their kitchen is talented and does a great job. I'd come just for the food. - Servers are top notch. After a short while, they seem more like friends than employees. Helpful and knowledgeable with an easy conversational tone. Thom helped us the first 3 visits and Cory (?) during our last one. The right people for the job. - The wines are very good. We're partial to varieties of white and Presqu'ile provides many choices. The Club allows you to choose which type and how often you receive a shipment (or pick up) which is fine for us. - Location is convenient. About 5 minutes east of Highway 101 at the south end of Santa Maria off the Clark Avenue exit - Parking is more than enough for everyday visits not far from the main building - The building itself is very attractive. A cool oasis on a warm day with indoor facilities including the kitchen, spaces for special occasions and nice restrooms. Cons: - None that come to mind!

A hilltop winery with sweeping ocean and vineyard views. We had a lot of wine here and the day could not have been any more perfect. Not familiar with their cool-climate wines so naturally we went for a tasting. Wine was great and since I'm not a wine aficionado it kept getting better with each sip. The food! Farm-to-table magic from their own garden, and local purveyors delivered to your table picnic style. I'll never forget the extra juicy tomatoes, and braised beef cheeks. As we stuffed ourselves with food and wine, and took in all the amazing views we just couldn't believe we were here and it was all real. Pro tip ~ by reservation only at this time. Do a tasting, get tipsy, and sit back and just enjoy yourself. This place is as good as it gets for wine, food, and nature lovers.

This winery is gorgeous inside and out. The membership like other places gives you good reason to frequent with friends and family for the wine tastings, wine pick up based on your level, and the super tasty food creations made by their chef on site. We have been members for years and always enjoy the friendly service, the amazing vistas, and the elegant decor. This is a hidden gem right off the 101 for locals and passerby folks alike.

It is our favorite winery. Alex our server today was spot on! Special day with my son. Beautiful glass of Sparkling Rosé which is out of this world with our warm weather. Had lunch which was so delicious and food was first class. Could give any restaurant from LA to San Fran a run for their money. Bright flavors and so very freshly made. I don't know what was better the lively wine, food or service! The owner have nailed the total package. Give yourself a treat and go. Such a beautiful and welcoming place.

The wines are fantastic! The estate is lovely. The tasting room is beautiful. The food was great. Everything was really top-notch. And Mario made our experience extra special by giving us an informal tour with a little bit of history and fun facts.

Beautiful scenery from the hills overlooking the valley of Santa Maria. I have been to two concerts and two events there. I loved the Rose wine but honestly they were all wonderful. It is so relaxing up at their winery with great views onto the Santa Maria valley.

I went here for a music event and was so impressed. The place was amazing. The bottle of Pinot noir we had was absolutely delicious. Then when the sun began to set, the view took my breath away. Despite it being super busy, the staff took the time to answer every question I had. I definitely will be back. My only minor issue was how crowded it was for the concert. I understand music events have more people than a typical day but it would have been nice to have it be more intimate.

This was my bfs first winery experience and boy did it blow the both of us away! The drive up to the winery was absolutely stunning. We came for the food and wine experience which was $68 pp. it includes a flight of red and white wine and a cute little picnic tray full of deliciousness. The entire staff was very attentive and knowledgeable. Whenever our glass is close to empty, the wine steward would come and pour our next wine tasting.

Presqu'ile Winery is a true gem nestled in the heart of wine country. The picturesque vineyard sets the stage for an unforgettable wine-tasting experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff's passion for their craft was evident, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The tasting room offers a perfect blend of elegance and comfort, making it an ideal place to savor their exceptional wines. Speaking of wines, each varietal I sampled was a testament to the winery's commitment to quality. Whether you're a seasoned wine connoisseur or a casual enthusiast, Presqu'ile Winery provides a sophisticated yet approachable setting to indulge in some of the finest wines the region has to offer. Cheers to a truly memorable visit!

Presquile is one of my favorite places to soak up the beauty of the Central Coast. The views and ambiance is stellar! The wine is also good, I really enjoy their Pinot Noir. The service is always friendly and whenever I have friends from out of town we make a trip here. The wine club pick up parties are also always a ton of fun!

Visited 5 times over the last 10 years and finally became wine members last year. It is a beautiful place to visit and easy to get to as it's only 5 minutes off 101 freeway. Friendly staff, beautiful setting and good wine, love the Rose and the mid level Pinot Noir.

Gorgeous winery inside and out. WOW. I'm so happy we stopped by while passing through Santa Maria. I had it bookmarked for a while and finally got a chance to visit. The grounds are breathtaking. So many vines up and down the hills. Once you get to the top you see a beautiful building with indoor seating and few private rooms and a wine cellar. We were greeted by the most friendliest host (forgot his name ) who poured my husband and I a glass of Sauvignon Blanc and seated us right away. Our waiter them approached us and explained the menu items and wine choices. We ordered the chefs mezzo picnic and an order of their Focaccia . For wine we got a bottle of their delicious Sauvignon Blanc instead of a whole tasting since we already knew how delicious the Sauvignon Blanc is. On a hot sunny day it was perfect. Serve over ice in a bucket. Our meal was delicious, super beautifully presented. We enjoyed every bite as we sipped on our wine. Our waiter was helpful, attentive and friendly. He made sure we were comfortable and enjoying our time at the winery. We absolutely loved our experience here and can't wait to be back. And yes we did become members of this wonderful winery to try more of their wines. We purchased few bottles of mixed wine to take home with us right away cause I don't know when we will visit again. I can't wait for our next shipment which will be in October. From what I understand it's twice a year. We shall see. Overall a great winery to visit while in the area. You won't be disappointed.

Fantastic wine, absolutely gorgeous winery and the views were so lovely. A perfect place for a date or in my case a girls trip. We loved the wine so much we joined their wine club! I can't wait for the next delivery! Service was fantastic! Please take some time to visit, promise you won't request it.

Best Pinot (Ontiveros) in California!! Nice Family owned business. Beautiful, clean winery and sustainability grown grapes

We came on a cold rainy day and we are not wine drinkers, but this place earned a 5-star from us! Why? Because it simply is wonderful! From the online reservation, the pre-arrival emails/directions, to the final dining experience- it was an impeccable experience and I know a lot of people must have worked very hard to make this happen ! The dining hall is spacious and beautiful - one that befits a large winery. The service staff was friendly and knowledgeable. We had their picnic set, which came in a beautifully arranged tray. For $30 per person (at this writing) it was a bargain! The combination of vegetables, cheese (they make their own), and the proteins (pork cheeks) was perfect. We tried some of their Rose and enjoyed it even though we are not wine drinkers. Though it was raining, the view from their front balcony was expansive and beautiful! Can't imagine how it might be if it's a day of nice weather!! Look forward to coming back someday and definitely recommend this to anyone, wine lovers or not, coming through the Santa Maria Valley.

We really enjoyed this vineyard! We did the wine plus food experience and it was special! The wine and wine education was exceptional. The food was fabulous! Highly recommend.

Amazing is the best compliment I can give. We were on a trip going north to Pismo. Our traveling companions radioed us. Let's make a detour and try this winery out. Just the short drive through the vineyards was spectacular. Arriving the staff was so welcoming. The ambiance of this outdoor setting was great! We sat in the couches, however there's not a bad seat in the complex. Tried some Rosé and Pinot and the cheese platter was outrageously delicious. The bree, goat cheese with a sweet tomatillo sauce, jeeez! couldn't get enough. There were olives, bread and pickled chiles etc. We were in heaven. Different people attended us and each person was knowledgeable and gracious. Before we left we had to purchase some wine for our evening in Pismo. If you're driving along the 101 hwy toward Santa Maria be sure to make a stop. Have a glass or two, some charcuterie and grab a bottle to go. Soak up the fresh air and relaxing environment too.

This place is not only beautiful, their service is amazing. We didn't have reservations but they still served us. I suggest you make reservations. Very friendly and helpful. I will definitely comeback. We had lunch so we didn't try any food. Walking by the tables we could see the deliciousness.

What is not to love about the winery? The view is amazing. The staff, knowledgeable and friendly. Dogs are allowed, if well mannered. The food is amazingpants! That's right. I said it. Amazingpants!

Beautiful surroundings, winery & views. Great wines, just a great venue. Live music on special occasions which was very enjoyable. Just a fun place to chill, hangout and drink great wines!

Presquile is a beautiful event space and one to visit if you're looking for nice time with a small group. The premise is a few miles from Orcutt and offers tastings as well as lunches. The price is not cheap but the ambiance and food has you leaving happy. Central coast wine is up and coming, offering lots of Pinot noirs, Syrah and Chardonnays. If your wallet can take it, Presquile will make for a very nice weekend visit.

Before we get to food and wine, let me first say that the grounds at this winery are just beautiful. You're surrounded by spectacular views of rolling hills and unlimited fresh air. The actual building architecture is amazing too, both inside and outside. Staff is friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. Please be sure to make reservations ahead of of time to ensure a great experience. As for the food and wine, it is just fantastic! Excellent variety of both white and red wines paired with tasty food platter that makes want to eat and drink more and more. I can't wait to revisit, hopefully soon.

Awesome place to hang out. Staff is very friendly, especially my guy Nick the host. Membership is reasonable and worth it. The food is also great and with trying everything when you get the chance. Only negative is they close a little to early.

Went here for the first time yesterday. You need to have reservations. Did the food pairing with wine. All the food are so delicious! Made by a French chef. Very nice place! I felt so relaxed! I'll come back to this place! I forgot to take a photo of the strawberry and tomato gazpacho. It's so good! All the wines are great as well. I favored more the Chardonnay, Sauvignon blanc and Rosè. Their Pinot noir is great as well. I'll be back soon!

Nothing could have prepared me for the life-changing experience my friends and I were blessed with at Presqu'ile. This "light picnic" as part of our tasting experience was second-to-none. The chefs here are artists in every sense of the word and my palette still hasn't recovered from the flavor sensations. Don't leave the premises without trying one or more of their Pinot noirs and their rosé. You won't be disappointed. But if I had to summarize it all in one word, it would be - Tom. He's so kind, knowledgeable, funny, attentive - there simply aren't enough adjectives for the wonder that is Tom. I suggest you run - don't walk - to Presqu'ile to see Tom and learn the true meaning of life.

Epic on all fronts! If you can only go to one place in Santa Barbara wine country, this is the place to go. Reservations are required in advance, and you are texted the gate code to enter the property the morning of your scheduled tasting. We did the Picnic wine pairing ($60/person) and it was worth it. The majority of the produce is made on property in their garden, so it is as fresh as it gets! The rich flavors of the wines are enhanced by the complementary food pairings. We ended up staying for 2 hours chatting, tasting and soaking in the beautiful coastal/vine views. Ended up wanting to purchase nearly all the wines we tried, so we joined their wine club. I am not typically a "wine club" person, so this was special for me. I strongly recommend making a reservation- it's an experience you will not forget.

I came here with my sister. We had reservations. The view here is amazing! We ordered the Chef Mezze Picnic and wine of course. Our server explained each wine served to us. It was wonderful experience. This took place back in August 2021. For some reason I thought I posted my review back then. Apparently not. We stayed there for 5 hours. Yes, the open patio setting is just gorgeous. This would be a great place for a wedding.

The Wine. The food. The view. Literally, the best winery experience I have ever had. This was a spur of the moment visit for my cousin and I. After not seeing any available appointments, we decided to call. We spoke to Nick on the phone and he was very accommodating and managed to get us a reservation for that day. We chose the food and wine experience and the price was a great value. They also are dog friendly! As for first timers the customer service was top tier. Major shot out to our server Holly who was nothing short of AMAZING. After her personal introduction she made sure to ask if we had any food allergies or dietary restrictions. I personally do not eat pork so the chef provided a vegetarian substitute for a portion of the tasting that included pork. She was very thorough during our wine tasting and gave us great recommendations. She was also very patient and we didn't feel rushed like most wine tasting experiences. We would definitely visit again!

The setting was fantastic. There was a great view and lots of games. Service was good. Wine was good but did not find it spectacular. Humus good. It would rank it 4.5/5

One of my favorite wineries in Santa Maria. The drive once you pass through the gates and up to the main tasting room/building is soo beautiful, with an even more beautiful view when your settled into a table. I absolutely love the modern architecture of the property, and view from the top of the hill is super relaxing once you got your glass of wine. I had came here a handful of times before Covid, and it was really easy to just walk-in at any day and enjoy a glass or bottle of wine. There was plenty of space, and no reservations required even when we have groups of 4-6 people. However, now with Covid, reservations are required with every visit, so it can be difficult to get a specific date, especially bigger parties. We've since tried out their Wine + Food Experience which includes the Mezze Picnic and a tasting flight. This costs about $65 per person or $35 per person if only enjoying the food. The Mezze Picnic was soo different from anything I had every tasted. I definitely love how this setup is different from other wineries that offer food. Although it is pretty pricey for a per person basis, the food was incredible. I loved how each dish was different, and so rich in flavor, delicious and presented so beautifully I didn't want to eat it! I didn't think I'd get full from everything, but my husband and I were satisfied by the time we finished everything. The wine of course were all really good. We've been thinking about joining their wine club, and we will probably be joining real soon. I also cant wait for our next visit to enjoy the Mezze Picnic again because I'm getting hungry thinking about it.

Beautiful winery! This was our first stop on our trip down to Santa Barbara. When you first drive up to the entrance and through the gate, you get a nice little drive through the vineyards until you get to the parking lot. We had a reservation and were seated right away. We did the food and wine tasting experience. It was $60 a person which we thought was a great price! We loved the food spread we received. It consisted of hummus & pita, ceviche, gazpacho (cold soup), some thinly sliced steak, and farmers cheese. Everything was fresh and tasty! We enjoyed all the wines as well. Our server helped to recommend which foods we should try with each wine. Overall, this is a nice winery that is worth the visit! It's feels very peaceful and private.

I went with my family and it was 4 adults and 2 kids. They said they would be able to get us in no problem. As I mentioned 4 adults 2 kids they said we wouldn't be able to get in. This was the most HORRIBLE experience as they had said they could get us in with multiple tables open. Don't lie to people while with their kids. As they were excited to go in and explore the outdoors. You guys were definitely stereo typing! This is unbelievable. !
