Alexis has a cute and funky store front (which appears as a renovated gas station from Highway 128 just so you know what to look for), but the best was when she welcomed us into her studio and let us watch her at work on the wheel. She makes amazing whimsical pottery, creative and innovative animal and totem pole sculptures and functional household items in a glaze I liken to a Mediterranean blue. We also found out that she has a cool mug club where you get a new mug shipped to you every 3 months so make sure to ask about this when you visit. It is always fun to meet a gallery owner/artist in person and be able to purchase an original work of art.

Stopped by here recently to do a tasting. Their pinot noir was delicious. Small tasting room. My…read morewife and I were treated great by the server on duty. Most of the wines we tasted we liked some more than others. But their pinot noirs are definitely my personal favorites. This winery was recommended by someone who used to be or is in their wine club. She told me the wine club charges a packing fee while the shipping is complimentary. We thought of joining their wine club we but didn't want to pay for packing their wines mailed to me.

One word... Gewurztraminer! GET IT! It's phenomenal here! For a girl who primarily drinks red wine,…read moreI must say that I am thoroughly impressed with their white wine. So much so, that I actually preferred their white wine selection over their reds. Yes, indeed! Philo Ridge Vineyards is a cozy tasting room located in downtown Booneville right off of Highway 128. They offer a variety of different wines including Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Viognier, Pinot Noir, Zinfandel, and so on. The tasting room itself is smaller than all of the other tasting rooms that I went to while wine tasting in Booneville. However, I could tell that this tasting room was extremely popular amongst the locals by how busy it was. Unfortunately, it can get a bit cramped and this is what happened when I arrived for my tasting. Nevertheless, the majority of the wines that I tasted were exceptional! Let me just say that Jill is an absolute Doll! Although she was basically swamped, she was able to assist us with a smile and poise. Her vivid descriptions and passion around the wines that she presented really shined through. I feel like it made me enjoy the wines even more. The cheese bread that they were serving didn't hurt either! I didn't get the name of the bread or even what cheese that it was made with, but it tasted yummy even while cold. Now to the best part... those wines! I tasted their 2014 Ferrington Vineyard Gewurztraminer, 2014 Nelson Vineyard Pinot Gris, 2014 Nelson Ranch Viognier, 2012 Marguerite Vineyard Pinot Noir, and their 2011 Anderson Valley Pinot Noir. I'm a love of Pinot Noir and although I liked the Pinots here, I wouldn't exactly call them my favorites. As I previously mentioned, the standouts here were their lovely whites! The Pinot Gris was light and fruity with the most fragrant pear aroma. I also really enjoyed the Viognier which had a very enjoyable floral taste with delicious notes of peaches and apricots. However, the torch goes to that Gewurztraminer! YEEESSS! Gimme some more of that goodness, mmm! The tropical fruits and crispness could be tasted from start to finish. If you love wines that are light, crisp, and full of floral and tropical notes, then this wine is definitely for you! It's the perfect wine to sip on a warm summer day. All in all, I wouldn't mind coming back to Philo Ridge to do another tasting. However, I would try to go during their off-peak hours to get a more intimate experience.
