I can't seem to find it online and wish I took a photo of it. Thank you for the wonderful service!

We were also fortunate enough to get some nice sunny weather on our visit. The outdoor seating was perfect for the weather. It did get a little windy later in the afternoon so I suggest you bring a jacket just in case if it gets chilly. On top of the scenery the service was great as well. The host greeted us and sat us right away. We ordered the wine flight since this is our first time at this vineyard we wanted to try everything. The wine connoisseur was really friendly, did a great job explaining each wine and timed out each pour perfectly. My personal favorite was the Chardonnay. Next time we're visiting the area we'll certainly be back for another wine tasting.

No reservations, walk-in. We chose the tasting for two and got started enjoying our wine with beautiful views of the rolling hills. The host was very attentive and gave us our next tasting with perfect timing spaced between. We enjoyed the variety of wines we tasted and the friendly staff. There's one restroom on site located near the main entrance. They also had a nice water fountain to keep you hydrated during the tasting. Lastly, we love how this was dog friendly! We brought our little fur baby for the tasting outdoor. Would recommend this spot next time to dog owners!

The winery itself kind of looks like a house and has a bunch of tables out front. There was no music when we went but the vibe was amazing. It's a bit windy and the sun hits hard here so be prepared with sun screen. The wine was very good, some were sweet and others were a bit more oaky. The grapes they used in some of the wines were from the vines right next to us. Oscar and Clint were very helpful and provided a lot of insight on the area. We went to a couple of their recommendations in town and they did not miss. This vineyard is a solid place if you want to sip on some good wine with a view. Bottom line/TLDR: friendly vineyard with amazing views.

We visited with a group of 11, and Paige did an incredible job taking care of us.

Her attentiveness and professionalism helped make the experience memorable for everyone in our group. A huge thank you to Paige and the Biddle Ranch team.

We had dinner reservations the next evening so we decided to go before dinner. Upon our arrival, we were pleasantly greeted by the hostess who is a student at Cal Poly. The owner was there and we struck up a conversation. We ordered 2 flights of wine and the evening went on easily for an hour and half. We loved hearing about John Couch's past and his contributions to Cal Poly and various charities. The wine was amazing and ended up buying 2 bottles. What an amazing start to a wonderful evening.

It is a very small, very cute spot essentially open to the street with additional seating outside. Very chill, not pretentious or intimidating.

Stopped in at the end of the day for a final tasting. We were the only customers there, and the original owner's granddaughter poured for us. She had very interesting stories of the family's history, and we even got to meet her mother & father, the second generation owners of this winery. The wines we tasted ranged from a crisp Chardonnay, a slightly oaked Viognier, to a cool-climate Syrah. The property was originally a cow and dairy farm, and the old barn is still there. The tasting room has some cool "artifacts" like the cattle branding iron, which is also on the labels of the wines. There's a pleasant outdoor patio next to the tasting room, and we were told that they also have an area back in a small canyon where they host weddings and other events. Filipponi Ranch is a nice, little diversion when you're traveling through the area. It's located right off the 101. Definitely worth checking them out.
