A wholesome venue…read more The Emilio Guglielmo Winery is a gorgeous venue. I came by for the anniversary Pasquale Esposito concert and had a great time. The staff did a great job at decorating the space and making this outdoor concert feel like an intimate experience. The table setup made the crowd feel like they're apart of a community. At sunset, this winery has stunning views of their vineyards. The concert was great. Pasquale is a resident guest of the winery and has a phenomenal voice. The food offered (chicken marsala, sausage and peppers, and balsamic vinegar dressed salad) was underwhelming. The selection was limited and food was cold. By the time I got to the food table, they had run out of the sausage dish. The wine selection was very good though. I particularly liked a few of the white wines offered during the event. The staff and servers were all friendly. It is apparent they all enjoy working here. The donation-pushing felt a bit tacky, however. During the entirety of my visit, I felt like I was being asked to donate (at the table, during dinner, before and after the performance). Of course their cause (providing music lessons to children) is incredibly important and has left a clear impact on the program's students, but it ended up taking away from my experience (especially considering the high cost of the concert tickets). Side note: the parking situation is challenging. There are very few handicapped parking stalls with a tiny lot. On concert nights, parking is located across the road at the neighboring high school. If you are visiting with anyone that has mobility issues, definitely come early to secure close parking. If you get the chance to see a Pasquale Esposito concert here, I would definitely go!

I became a member and received an email about it so I decided to reserve our seats. We were able to select each entree and had the option to call back and edit it if we wanted to. Upon arrival, we were given a glass of champagne and walked over to our assigned table. Our seats were pre assigned and were sat with 3 other couples. A harp was playing the whole night. It was a delightful evening. Throughout the night, the wine kept coming. I never had an empty glass.

It's operating under the Cordevalle name and is an absolute must-see if you are staying at the resort or in the vicinity of San Martin. I wish we'd had more time to dine or see a concert there, but will definitely be back and be purchasing more of the excellent wine. If you are looking for a wedding venue, this place would be phenomenal.

Would've loved to sit outside but it was too hot of a weather. oh and did you know they had olive oils here? like you can do not just a wine tasting but an olive oil tasting? we didn't know until someone came in to purchase their olive oil. one of my friends decided to ask if we could try it out and tbh, it was actually a good quality of olive oil. the oil was pretty light so it was good! my friend ended up buying a bottle! the wine was good, but i should've gone with the flight of white wine. i quite enjoy drinking white a lot more, but you just never know, what if a red really taste good until you try it! Of course! I'll come back one of these days to get the white wine to add to my collection!

Lion Ranch specializes in Rhone and Provence varietal blends so expect unique blends of red and white wines along the lines of Viogner, Grenache Blanc, Marsanne, Mourvedre, Terret Noir, and more. All very clean, smooth, and tasty. MOST OF ALL - I liked that the wines had less sulfites (no more headaches for me!) There are 3 flight tasting options - white, red, and mixed (which includes a rose). All three are great options and value at 6 tasters for $20. If you choose to purchase a bottle they are all mostly around $26-45. I loved that this place allowed you to bring outside food as it was the perfect picnic spot but if you don't, they also have a mini fridge of charcuterie items to purchase. The winery itself is intimate, but with ample outdoor seating. A small babbling fountain, corn hole, and umbrellas for shade round out the ambiance. It was perfect for a lazy Saturday afternoon. Also thank you to Jen & Mike for making the tasting so special and fun! I loved their knowledge of the wines and hospitality. Highly recommend a visit with friends :)

We saw a wine tasting sign at the end of the driveway if you turn in at the very first opening. It wasn't busy at all. It was mostly the owners daughter and daughter's boyfriend helping pour the tastings. We saw the owner come by a couple of times. There's both outdoor and indoor seatings. The restroom is actually located in one of their buildings that you will see when you walk down to the tasting room. Felt weird to go into someone's living area. $20 tasting fee for 4 wines. You can revisit the wines. But most of the wines were good. European Bordeaux style wines which were bold and complex. Only one wine was tannic.

It truly feels like you're hanging in your friend's backyard. If your friend just happens to make delicious wine and have beautiful westward views of the valley. There was music playing, no sense of urgency, and the namesake pooch Moose to occasionally provide a little company. The owner and head winemaker Rich and assistant wine maker Uli took their time explaining the process, the wines, and anything else you may think to ask. Rich even let us pick fruit from his citrus trees to take home. What a beautiful day and beautiful experience. We plan on going back in the fall for the harvest festival!

We both opted for the red wine tasting and appreciated the variety. There were one or two I didn't like as much, but I loved being able to taste such different wines. We also decided to splurge and share the white wine tasting. I loved their Rose and one of their white wines. We ended up buying a bottle of the Red Syrah and White Fiano as gifts for friends. What really took this place up from 4 to 5 stars was house hospitable and kind the staff was! Dana in particular was so warm and welcoming from the moment we walked in, asking how we ended up in Morgan Hill and congratulating us on our recent job offers. She even brought out some complimentary champage because she was so happy for our recent life changes! I have lived in the south AND the midwest, two places known for hospitality, but have never had a better experience with hospitality than here at MHC. Can't wait to come back and try more wines while I am chilling in "MoHi" for a few more weeks!

We chose to do our tasting out on the garden patio. Once we got out there my first impression was of neglect and sadness. I hoped it wasn't going to be a reflection of the wines we'd be tasting. Unfortunately it was. All were bad, some worse than others. The "champagne" had no bubbles. We noticed this before we began our tasting. They all tasted like they came from bottles that had been opened weeks before being poured for our tasting. My fiancé asked if they had tasted the wines that morning to QC, and the tasting room hostess said she had. She either has no clue what the wine should taste like or she lied. Maybe both. We heard that this winery has been changing hands frequently and that in the past had produced good wine. I will keep my fingers crossed that who ever is the current owner will be able to turn this winery around. In the meantime I couldn't in good conscience recommend anyone making time to taste here.

Castillo's Hillside Shire Winery Review from my visit on Sunday 5/17/2026…read more I was very excited to visit this location because the photos online looked absolutely stunning. The beautiful home and landscape are very well kept, and the winery itself is a cozy little spot nestled along the hillside. Prior to visiting, my friend kindly called about two weeks in advance to ask permission to take her graduation photos there so we wouldn't be imposing on their property. We were told it would be perfectly fine as long as we purchased a bottle of wine, which we happily agreed to. Unfortunately, upon arriving, our experience was disappointing. The woman working in the tasting room came across as very cold and unwelcoming from the moment we walked in. She repeatedly questioned us about taking photos and stated there was a $250 insurance charge required for photography on the property. When we explained that permission had already been given over the phone, she simply responded with "okay" before ringing me up for a $49 bottle of wine. What was most disappointing was the lack of kindness and professionalism. I was genuinely excited to visit this winery and support the business, but the uncomfortable interaction completely changed my perspective on the location. Hospitality goes a long way in the winery industry, and unfortunately, we did not feel welcomed here at all. Such a beautiful property, but sadly the customer service experience left a lasting impression, and not in a positive way.
