First we decanter it and let it breathe after aerating it. Nothing can compliment a good filet mignon like a good bottle of petite Shiraz. This is now on my list of must have! Smooth. Just a hint of earthy. No pepper or tannins (two of my least favorites in wines). This is a bottle of wine you can enjoy alone or with a meal. It's just very clean and well composed, like the notes to a favorite song! My soon to be daughter in law loves the wine too!! We have been looking for a good wine to put in the wedding venue to serve at the big day with a great dinner. We found it.

My wife loved the blend...not too sweet...not to tart...just right. They also have a program called ZIN Lab where you can create your own special blend and bottle with custom labels. Not usually a fan of "Box" wines but their "Screw Corkscrews" box is good and was on special...so we had to import a box back home. Jeremy earned their five star rating because there is nothing they could have done better, great facility, great staff and great wine, great experience.

Okay. This place is my hidden gem and I almost don't want to review it so I can keep it a secret,…read morebut it's worth the 5 stars so here we go. This place is 100% a passion project/labor of love run by two of the most lovely, interesting people you will ever meet. The tasting room is in a hidden little alcove off Main Street, their hours are ??? (Saturday seems most reliable) and they don't charge for tastings except the port. There's nowhere else in Murphy's that does a full-gamut port tasting as far as I'm aware, and it's incredible. If you have never tasted a delicious, mystifying port while the (French) winemaker and his (German) wife pop quiz you about the tasting notes with expectant, mischievous expressions, you haven't really lived. They also make the best Viognier in town by a massive margin (it tastes like flowers and stonefruit without being sweet at all and I compare every other Viognier to this now). I've taken my mom here. I've taken my grandparents here. I've taken all my friends here. If I'm in Murphy's with someone who has never been here, I assume it is my duty to spread the good word, and now I'm spreading it to Yelp too.

The wines are absolutely delicious and well balanced. I am enjoying the Merlot and Zinfandel, a…read morelot. I visit the tasting room in Murphy's in the courtyard and be sure to try all of the ports as they are the best of all anywhere that I have tasted ports.

Their wine tasting flights rotate every month so make sure to be on the lookout for that. If you buy a bottle of wine after your tasting, the tasting fee is waived. Denise was the person who helped us and she was extremely friendly and welcoming. Another worker (I didn't catch her name) but she was also very kind to us and our dog. We sat outside & they kept checking on us and making sure our glasses were filled during our fasting. No reservations needed! Walk-ins welcomed & you can also order by the glass. They also have trivia night on Fridays! Can't wait to be back!

And as a professional courtesy Layne made sure that we all had wine in our glasses as we walked through the breezeway to the aging room. The learning tour was super interesting as we got to see the locally curated oak barrels, the authentic European barrels made of French oak, as well as the stainless steel tourine used to age M2s delightfully crisp Vermintino. After the tour we re convened in the main tasting room and sat at one of M2s super duper comfy soft seating sofas. We enjoyed a lovely bottle of 2020 Patina, a delicious jammy red table wine recommended by Layne the M2. Noteworthy m2 Wines that I sampled and loved: 1. The 2021 Mokalumne River Rose 2. The 2022 m2 Estate Vinyard Vermintino

The winery welcomes you with a…read morelong, beautiful drive through sprawling vineyards that instantly sets the tone for the experience. The outdoor seating area in the back was gorgeous, but since we arrived early on a Saturday and had the place nearly to ourselves, we chose to taste at the stunning bar instead. We were told it had been imported from a former brothel in New York, which only added to the charm and character of the place. Inside, the winery feels like part antique museum, part elegant wine lounge, filled with fascinating furniture, décor, and unique pieces everywhere you look. It's obvious the owner spared no expense creating such a warm and memorable atmosphere. Sha was our server and truly made the visit special -- such a delightful person with a fun, welcoming personality that elevated the entire tasting experience. Unfortunately, I've been dealing with some issues with my taste and smell lately, so I wasn't the best judge of the wines myself, but the rest of our group thoroughly enjoyed them, and we all ended up leaving with bottles to take home. I'd happily return again next time I'm in the area.

The winery itself has such a relaxed vibe (complete with a winery cat!), and their events are wonderfully down-to-earth. Attending a release here feels like being at a fun family party, but without any of the drama. ​Today's 80s-themed wine release party was super fun featuring food trucks, music (Rewind 80s Band), bake sale, and, of course, fantastic wine. What truly sets this place apart, however, is the staff. They are warm, welcoming, and funny, making the experience even better. Honestly, the wine is equal to--if not better than--the quality you find in Napa and Sonoma, but for a third of the price.
