Cannot recommend Wes Hagen and his hospitality at the Ranchos De Ontiveros facility enough. 5+…read morestars! Wes' incredible amount of knowledge, and painstaking explanations (without being boring) of the entire growth, processing, and history of the winemaking and vinting process was nothing short of a wonderful journey into the heart of California winemaking. Like I told Wes when we set out on our tour, I'm no oenophile. I simply know what I like when I taste it. Wes was patient, inquisitive, and not high minded about wine and how and when it can be enjoyed. I really appreciated the thoughtfulness and thoroughness with which he constructed the tasting, and the accompanying culinary pairings. For those considering the tour, the Ranchos De Ontiveros grounds are a little further out there, but you'll be rewarded with the majesty of the Santa Maria valley and the bucolic surrounds which envelop the landscape. Between the setting and the awesome educational experience through Wes, you will undoubtedly feel privileged to have spend a wonderful couple hours in his and the vinyards company.

These guys went above and beyond to show us a good time and were incredibly kind and generous. The wine was spectacular. Most guests bought bottles at the end. And every single person was thrilled with their experience. They way way way exceeded our expectations - which I'm not saying lightly. The venue was stunning, and we couldn't be more grateful to have had such spectacular hosts.

This was our first visit to this rustic tasting room, and we had a nice experience. It was a Friday, right after opening, and we had the whole place to ourselves. The service was friendly, and my wife and I shared a traditional and custom flight. We thought that the wines were decent, some better suited to our palates than others, but well-made, nonetheless. We were fortunate to meet and speak with the owner who happened to be bringing in supplies and got a little more detail on the wines, than we did from our "winerista". He also mentioned that his niece opened a winery in Los Olivos (Story of Soil), which focused on wine styles a little out of our wheelhouse, but we thought we'd give that a try as well, and it turned out to be a fantastic recommendation. Costa De Oro is a nice place with wine varietals for everyone's tastes. I recommend you stop in and give them a try when you're passing through the area.

We arrived right as they opened, and we built our own tasting flights and she gave us information about the property and the wines.

Thank you for the great experience Tammy!

New tasting room is open Thurs - Sun, Noon - 5:00pm…read more First visit to the newly opened tasting room in Los Alamos. It's located at the easterly end of town, rather than in the center of town where most of the other wineries are located. Kevin Law, owner/winemaker, is making some of the best wines anywhere in the area. I say this with my usual disclaimer that what my palate loves, yours may not, so check them out for yourselves. Will, the assistant winemaker, happened to be pouring during our recent visit. He's a wonderful host and always takes care of us. We tasted the following: '19 Blanc de Blancs Sparkling (100% Chardonnay), '24 Aligoté (Santa Barbara), '19 Chardonnay (La Rinconada), '22 Pinot Noir (Sta. Rita Hills), '21 Pinot Noir (Sanford & Benedict), and a '19 "Derive" Bordeaux blend (48% Napa & 52% Santa Ynez Valley). As usual, we loved everything! I honestly can't tell you what they charge for a tasting, as we've always purchased 6 or more bottles, and they've waived the fee. Now we're Club Members and receive a regular discount all year, with an additional discount the two months they release to club members. I can't recommend these guys enough, as we feel that their wines are some of the best in the area.

Final Girl Wines was a must stop for me while visiting Solvang!…read more Final Girl Wines is located in the heart of Solvang and is a funky addition to this magical little town. I am a huge horror fan so I was beyond excited to check them out over the weekend! The inside and vibe was all I could hope for and more! We were immediately greeted when we arrived and found a table to sit at and enjoy our time. There were only a few tables plus bar seating available so it was nice and cozy. I loved seeing all of the horror memorabilia, decor and merchandise throughout including the killer Ghostface mask and Halloween pinball machine. My husband ordered a glass of their Cab which he loved and I ordered a Vamperol Spritz - they were even kind enough to make our daughter a mocktail. They even brought her over a Nightmare Before Christmas activity kit to keep busy and we bought a Michael Myers sticker as well as a Nightmare Before Christmas hair clip to take home. I'm kicking myself now for not buying a t-shirt! Kids are very welcome at this winery which was a huge plus for us! Staff were personable and made our visit very enjoyable! Final Girl Wines also offers tasting flights and non-alcoholic options as well! They do not offer food, but there are so many great places in Solvang to check out. If you're a horror fan or just enjoy good wine, you have to check out Final Girl Wines while in Solvang! I can't wait to come back and give them another visit one day!

First stop in solvang and we came here. A great surprise…read more The best mix of classic horror and wine tasting variety. We did the Tasting Flight and man, it was a surprise. The house wine mix of white and red was great. We got a bottle of their house made SAUVIGNON BLANC and would buy another. Chip was amazing. He was very welcoming when we walked in and detailed with each selection of pour from the flight. The mix of horror and wine interior is relaxing. Dark with good select lighting and candles. We're coming back!.

I recently went to the Allan Hancock College Winery for the first time with my SO. Great wines…read morewith great service. The wines themselves are excellent and easily compete with Santa Maria's other offerings. I tried all of the wines on their tasting flight, and it's nice to see that the college grows so many different varietals. Some of my favorites were the Albariño (bonus points for growing this varietal on site), Chardonnay, 2015 Pinot Noir, Syrah, and Malbec (the only non-estate offering). I ended up taking a bottle of the pinot home. The service is great! We had a first-year student helping us who was very knowledgeable about the wines and the enology and viticulture program at AHC. For reference, this was on August 17 around 3 pm, so whoever that was, major props to you! The current schedule for the Fall 2018 semester is Friday, 2-6, so make sure to stop by if you're in Santa Maria!

Presqui'le Winery never fails to amaze me!…read more Whenever my MIL visits, we always make it a point to visit Presqui'le. The weather was beautiful. Sunny, warm, slight breeze with an amazing view of the mountains and ocean view. The food is so fresh because it's all farm to table. The chef changes the menu every season, so you never really get the same things twice! I really enjoyed eating everything on the table today. The service is always good, but today prompted me to finally write a review. I think Alex (boy Alex) has been my favorite server thus far! Since I've been traveling heavily, I haven't been able to maximize my membership. (Thus leading me to cancel it after 3 years) However, my experience today was enough for me to renew it! Thanks Alex!
