Incredibly informative , as we dined on a delicious Summer lunch that was paired beautifully with their tastings of the day. We enjoyed : Viognier, very crisp with a slight mango and honeysuckle hint. The 2022 blush was a very dry fruity floral sip . And for the summer, they surprised us with a beautiful sweet sangria . Be prepared for some of the most amazing service you will ever get at any winery. dining on the Terrace, live music with a cool summer breeze-bring your friends, family and your dogs as well It's the perfect summer hang !

The setting is intimate and inviting, perfect for my friends engagement party! This venue is ideal for private events, spacious yet cozy, with just the right mix of elegance and rustic charm. They were serving a white and red but to me the red wine here was exceptional, (I did forget the name) it was rich, smooth, and full bodied. It's clear that quality, not quantity, is their priority. From the friendly hospitality to the tranquil surroundings, everything about Hatfield Creek Winery makes you want to linger a little longer. If you're looking for a unique, personal wine-tasting experience with truly great reds, this is the place. We'll definitely be back -- and bringing friends next time!

Milagro Farm is just that, a working farm with many aspects, including the winery. The tasting room, patio, and barrel room facilities have a rustic vibe, but are very nice. The staff was friendly and provides a lot of information on the various wines they offer. WINES: We shared a tasting of 5 whites and 5 reds. They have a large selection of varietals, including a Sparkling, Sauv Blanc, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Barbera, Cab Sauv, Petite Sirah, and some blends. The wines are okay, not necessarily matching my palate, but others seem to really enjoy them. I always say that with wine, what I like/dislike may differ from your palate, so I suggest that you try them out yourselves. Overall, a relaxing, enjoyable time and location.

That said, the owner, Andy, was so gracious and welcoming that we genuinely want to see him succeed; it feels only right to spread the word. The experience was fantastic from start to finish. We left with two bottles of wine--despite usually preferring reds, we couldn't pass up both the Albarino and the Sangiovese. One tip: double-check your route on Google Maps before heading over. Just a heads-up--it's not the dirt road!

There's a small, but comfortable area inside by a stone fireplace, as well as a nice deck in front offering the wonderful views of the vineyards and surrounding hills. They even have a cave, however it's not open to the public (at least as of our last visit). WINES: Andy (owner/winemaker) poured for us and provides good service and nice insight on his wines and vineyard. One tasting fee is waived with one bottle purchase, as Andy's motto is "We want to sell wines, not tastings". Chuparosa offers mostly Italian, French, and some Spanish varietals (Albariño, Grenache Gris, Mourvèdre/Grenache Rosè, Sangiovese, Cab Franc, and Zinfandel) and in my opinion they're all well-made, elegant wines, some of the best in the region. Chuparosa is a "must visit" winery when in the Ramona wine country.

I believe he was the owner; but he was very hospitable. They have unique wines infused in whiskey barrels. I had their Chardonnay which had a slight taste of whiskey in it but I thought it was pretty good. I also tried their pepperoni and sausage flat bread which also was pretty tasty. We were greeted by "Whiskey" the cat and as we were told apparently he was a stray and greets everyone as they arrive which was cute. They have misters which helped a lot with the heat.

The Staff and owners were very nice, as we were having good time Scott the owner took the kids, around 10 of them to a short hike and showed them around the property and vineyard, kids had good time while adults were drinking up. Meanwhile Kristy engaged the smaller kids. It was all fun and everyone had fun. Special kudos to the lovely bartenders.

It's charming in its simplicity (see the photo of the converted shipping van which doubles as the tasting room).

We tried the sampler and took home a bottle of the Ramona Red which was my favorite.
