Love the Edwards! Great wine, great people and such a perfect view. 10/10 would recommend.

My boyfriend and I stayed in the yurt for a night. We didn't know what to expect, but we were greeted by Beth as soon as we arrived. Beth is an absolute gem! We did a wine tasting before heading to our yurt, and would definitely recommend doing this! The wine was fantastic. We can't wait to come back! read more

My boyfriend and I went wine tasting here and stayed in the yurt on their property, such a unique experience! Great wine too! You can see the stars at night, which made it even more special. You can book the yurt through Airbnb. Amazing experience and very affordable! read more

Driving by we took a chance, saw the open sign and did a tasting. Beth the owner couldn't be more hospitable. Great family winery focused on reds. Every wine was great. Can't wait to try their Glamping tents!!!! read more

Yesterday 12/21/2024 we had our fifth or sixth visit to Edwards Vineyards over the past two years. What a special place. The tasting area is rustic ... a few tables, some umbrellas and a pergola across the driveway from their vineyards ... but the setting is so peaceful and the wines are really, really good. The owner and winemaker Beth Edwards is usually the one serving the wines and she is more than willing to answer questions; we always learn something. We are big fans of their Petite Sirah as well as their Cabernet and their Syrah, especially their Clone 383. Tip: The tasting area is outdoors, so check the weather to know what to wear (casual is great). And a hat is helpful when the sun sneaks below the shades and umbrellas. Bring your own snacks to enjoy while sipping some great wine! read more

What an amazing experience coming to Edwards vineyard! We came for the Glamping experience and it did not disappoint! We started off with wine tasting, had the pleasure of having Brad educate us on the history of the vineyard and each wine we tasted (each wine was truly better than the last). I highly recommend coming to visit, it's such a cozy and welcoming vibe. You get an intimate experience as it is more of a "mom and pop", which made it so personal and fun! The Glamping was just as great, the tents were very well equipped and clean and was the perfect romantic getaway and escape from reality! I will definitely be back for more wine tasting in the future and would love to glamp again as well! This place is a must to stop by in Ramona! read more

First time visiting and had a very nice experience. $12/guest for a 5 pour flight tasting (waived with any 1 bottle purchase). Beth, co-owner with her husband, greeted and poured for us. It's one of Ramona's smaller vineyards, but they are making some nice wines. They have a small, covered, outdoor tasting patio with tables/chairs and a serving area. Very rustic atmosphere, not like the other wineries in the area which have a tasting room structure/building. There is a standalone porta potty which was large, clean, and smelled fine. They don't serve munchies, but you're free to bring your own. We shared a cheese plate with one of the other visitors. WINES: The wines were all very drinkable with our favorite being the 2015 Petite Sirah. We also enjoyed the 2014 and 2015 Syrah. Surprisingly though, we took home bottles of their Rosé of Syrah and Valley of the Sun Rosé. Wine tasting can be very subjective however service is not. Beth and her husband were super friendly and they make nice wines. We recommend you stop in and give them a try. read more

From the street looks like a fruit stand. But grapes are a fruit and Beth has developed some good grapes. Edwards winery rivals some of the finest Napa valley wines I've ever had, and I live in Northern California near Napa Valley. Her syrahs and especially the "clone" are fabulous. Her other wines, cabernet and blend are equally as good. And she has a port which is one of the best I've ever tasted. Bring a lunch and be prepared to taste some excellent wines. read more

Beautiful view in a somewhat rustic setting. Wines were all great but our favorite were the Rosé of Syrah and Own-Rooted Syrah. The Rosé was just the right amount of refreshing and sweet for a warm sunny day. read more

We tried the tasters and we loved them all. They all reds which is great and the owners are super friendly and welcoming. read more

We stopped in on our way over the mountain to Borrego Springs. Both the wine maker Victor and his wife Beth were there. They were both charming and Beth took the time to give us the history of the wine etc.. Frankly we weren't especially thinking this was going to be a great experience as it is a small outdoor tasting area with no bar etc like other tasting rooms. Boy were we wrong! The wine is exceptional! We ended up buying half a case and we will definitely be back! Highly recommend! Also the view is phenomenal from that outside space. read more

Another winery referred us to this place for good Syrah's, which is my favorite. We pulled up and it was an outdoor wine setting with a big dog to greet you and a lovely staff ready to pour some wines! I liked the fact that most of their red wines were bold, and the Syrah's were absolutely delish! They were also reasonably priced - the bottle we bought (Syrah 2010 - mature oak) was $25. The owner was very friendly and she even told us where we could buy a Julian apple pie at! I definitely recommend adding this to your wine route! They're one of the best wineries in the area. read more

I love this winery. It's small and and charming, and is about the wine - not about party buses and souvenirs. It is a family owned and run business, and you can chat directly with the proprietors (lovely people) during a tasting. Their 2007 Syrah is one of my favorite wines of all time. (Not favorite Ramona wine, or favorite of the varietal - favorite period. It's that good.) If you are looking for a stop on a party bus tour, this may not be up to your expectations. The 'tasting room' is just a small covered patio up on the side of the hill with a bar and a couple of tables. But if you are coming to taste some incredible wine and to deepen your appreciation of the craft, this is definitely a must-see place for you. It is quiet and peaceful and you can sit and discuss wine with the owners and fellow patrons while looking out over the grape vines. It's the perfect way to spend a weekend afternoon. I have nothing but great things to say except that I'm not there drinking the Syrah right now. read more

Randomly stopped in on our drive back home. Wonderful location and GREAT wine. Very unassuming (don't expect Wilson Creek) which in my opinion is a win! Beth has stories galore, so chat her up :) read more

Recently visited again, and Edwards continues to produce excellent wine: bold but balanced. Best wine in Ramona Valley and better (and priced less) than much wine in more established wine regions. Worth the trip! read more

I would give this vineyard a full 5 stars if its seating area was a bit nicer. They have only been at this location for a few years, so I hope they are thinking of either expanding the seating area or moving it further up the hill to a more scenic location. I know that's a lot to ask, but I write it for the sake of their recieveing constructive input. Having said that, it is a small patio with shade and two well-behaved dogs that mostly nap as you eat and drink (no begging! very good!). A port-o-potty is discretely off to the side of the storage shed and is well-kept. Picnics are welcome since they only serve the wine. As for the abundant good, I was really blown away by the quality of Edwards Vineyards wines. Literally every wine we tasted was smooth and wonderfully full-bodied. There are usually a few I don't love or even some that are total stinkers when I go wine tasting here or in Temecula, but I was really impressed by Edwards' consistency. Bottles range from around $16-$40 each. The tasting is $10 for (as I recall) 6-7 wines and that fee is waived if you buy a bottle. The wine-maker was there telling us (with passion and knowledge and a bunch of sweet personal stories) about the wine and her family and the history of the area. I really appreciate when wine-makers speak to you in both technical and layman's terms and are not afraid to be personable. We felt like a part of the family, so thank you for that warm experience! Keeping in mind that the Ramona Valley gets brutally hot in midday summer sun, I think any weekend is a good time to visit Edwards. I'm actually going to make a point to buy a bottle or two as a gift to show my friend what a good Rose tastes like. read more

Good service and patter, fine wine tastings. It looks like it will be sweltering, but the pavilion and breeze on the hillside make it tolerably pleasant. Best winery I've visited in the Ramona area. read more

If you want to try the finest red wine in San Diego Co. visit this small, boutique family owned and run winery. Beth Edwards (Owner, Winemaker and Vineyard Manager) is the ultimate hostess. The wines are terrific - especially their Syrahs and Petite Sirahs - and so reasonably priced compared to the competition! Their Tasting Patio provides a wonderful view of their vineyard and the local valley. Picnics are welcome. If you're serious about wine - don't miss Edwards!! read more

This is the best winery in Ramona Valley in my opinion! Vic and Beth are the owners, growers and winemakers. The wines are aged to perfection before being released. My favorite is the Syrah but they also have excellent Cabernet, Petite Syrah, Rose and Port. If you're looking for amazing wine in San Diego, Edwards should be your first stop! Cheers. read more

Beth Thank you! You were absolutely lovely thank you so much for the small lesson in wines. This place is so cute with such a beautiful little patio and such a gorgeous view, will definitely be back read more

My husband and I stopped at Edwards a month ago after having visited another nearby Ramona winery - it was definitely worth the stop. Don't be deceived by the lack of formal tasting room - it's really a wine tasting stand just up the drive to the property, and in many ways, much more fun and enjoyable. There were just two wines to try and both were good - the everyday red and their Syrah (which they have sold out of - the Syrah that is). We purchased the everyday red. They have a small production with just three acres of vines on the property, but they are doing a great job with their wines. Beth Edwards was there to do the tastings - she was a wealth of information re: wine growing and even gave us an impromptu lesson / tour among the vines next to the tasting area. There were rolls from Dudley's Bakery to eat between tastings (no charge for the bread). The tasting was $5 and we got to keep the glass. We really enjoyed our visit and will definitely stop by again as more vintages become available. This was the perfect reason why you never judge a winery by the opulence of a tasting room - the best wineries I have been to have been the most informal ones. Edwards is located between Ramona and Santa Isabel, on the north side of the 78 almost across from Oasis Camel Dairy. read more

Excellent wines, this place is very relaxing, and the view is nice too, their new MSG red is delightful.

Have known Beth and Vic for about 6 yrs or more. We always go up with treats from our garden and lunch. Our newfoundland used to go up with her before her passing and their dog Doc adored her so. Highly recommend this as a place to sit n enjoy a picnic and chat with the owners while you enjoy your wine tasting. read more

One taste of wine for $8? We stopped by here recently while wine tasting in Ramona. As we walked up to the tasting area which sits out in the middle of nowhere, the woman was polite and greeted us saying they only had one wine, a petite sirah to taste. We split a tasting. It was just average, nothing special about it. Went to pay for tasting one wine, and was charged $8. She said we could keep the glass, like we don't have enough glasses from tasting rooms. To the winery: you should adjust your tasting prices according to how many wines you are tasting. Ramona is still far off from being Napa or Temecula. We won't be coming back due to this experience. read more

We almost did not stop by this place, but boy were we glad we did. Very small production winery with an informal outdoor tasting room (really, I should have said tasting patio). As someone else posted, $8 for 4 wines is a very good deal and the wines are very good, especially for the price. It's at the eastern edge of the region, so my advice is to start at this end and work your way back. It is a very small operation and the tasting room is run by the husband-and-wife owners. If you get there right at opening time and find no one there, call them. Chances are they are running late. read more

Absolutely fantastic little patio with a great relaxing view. The owners were a treat themselves and ah yes, the wine was very good. I appreciated the scale of oak flavor and tart - would be hard not to find one that hits home. Cheers and thank you! read more

Best RED'S around. If you like Syrah's then you will be in heaven here. Hey a tasting and a great bottle to go for around $25 you can't beat that. I will be back and will be spreading the je word! read more

I've been to 100's of wineries all over CA, OR and WA and I have to say their Petite Sirah is one of the best I've ever had!

I have been to many southern California wineries that were just plain awful. My wife and I often go up to Paso Robles to do wine tasting because of their quality. No. Edwards Cellars doesn't have the posh tasting rooms that one would find in Temecula, but on the other hand their wines are as good as any I have tasted in Paso Robles, and it's a lot closer. Like several other wineries in Ramona, Victor and Beth Edwards are interested in putting out quality wines, and they do an excellent job doing it. I highly recommend them to anyone who likes great red wines. read more
