Had the pleasure of stopping by for their comedy night and it was a great experience. Had a sandwich and a bottle of wine and we laughed together. Definitely a great time to bring some friends, I wish I would've known that I can bring my own food but it was still a good time. read more

RINGOES: set amongst the gorgeous NJ countryside, Old York Cellars Winery has been a well-known winery in Hunterdon County for the last 15 years and elegantly serves fresh wine made from the grapes of their vineyard and chef inspired fare! We appreciate the invitation from Karin, the Marketing Director, to explore and admire the space, indulge in wine and food, and enjoy live entertainment at this peaceful place. Views of the vineyard and Sourland Mountains are stunning and I couldn't stop gazing at all the beauty. Leashed and friendly dogs are allowed in the outdoor spaces which includes a seasonal tented area, the cabanas along the building, and they can walk around the property. The vineyard tent provides great shade from the sun and weather conditions and is an expansive space with lots of tables and waiter service. Come hungry and thirsty because the menu has so much to offer including Spanish-inspired tapas and entrees. We cleaned off our plates like Brie cleans off her bowl showing how much we enjoyed the pan con tomate, potato leek soup, and patatas bravas. Options include ordering items individually or opt for a wine & food pairing. On Saturdays and Sundays between 11:30am-2:30pm, brunch is also served with some nice specials and offerings. The wine selection is extensive too and we highly recommend a wine tasting flight to sample six varieties and I really enjoyed the reds, with Darryl Mack Cellars Red being my favorite. In addition to tastings, you can order a glass, or a bottle to enjoy with your meal. Live music and other events round out a wonderful experience and makes for a nice day out! We chatted with the manager, Omar, who is very friendly and attentive and was intrigued by Brie's doggy dance to get attention. This place is popular and reservations are recommended as seating cannot be guaranteed for walk-ins. Easily book your visit on their website and check out all that Old York Cellars has to offer. Nearby is the dog friendly attraction, Black River & Western Railroad, with train rides through Ringoes and Flemington. read more

Had a wonderful time here catching up with friends! Great wine, reasonable price tags and BYOF (bring your own food!!). Large tent outside, colorful gift shop and friendly service. Lovely ambiance and well worth it if you're in the area. Get the Malbec if you like reds - really smooth and tastefully crafted. read more

Gorgeous winery, literally pictures don't do it justice. Sitting on the Adirondack chairs looking at the beautiful vineyard with a nice breeze was blissful. I just wish they had better service. I thought maybe it was a fluke but based off other reviews it's not. The waiter was nice, knowledgeable but he was alone for 6 tables. It wasn't his fault but we waited 40 minutes for a glass of wine. It would've been more enjoyable if service was faster but I would go back. The wines were yummy, I love that they have food too. Empanadas and olives were yummy. I bet on a fall day it's nice they have cabanas with heaters. read more

One of our favorite places in NJ. We came here all the time. Music is good. Views are amazing. Relaxing vibes. Dogs allowed. Babies allowed. Service is amazing. It's the best. Come here for a great time. read more

If I could leave zero stars I would. Waitress was "out to lunch". Our wine sat on the bar for about 20 minutes before it hit the table. Food didn't show up after 40 so we cancelled it. The longest time we spent with our waitress was when we saw the check. Do better, you guys have a great space. read more

I had a good time here today. I made reservations and purchased a Groupon. It was affordable received 6 wines to try and a glass at the end. The winery is beautiful. We had to wait a little bit before our tasting and the gentleman provided us with a wine slushy which was tasty and refreshing. After the tasting we purchased a bottle of wine and walked through the winery. I enjoy the day and the winery. They do serve food however I didn't try anything. Maybe next time because I will be back. read more

Enjoyed the winery, beautiful grounds. The service was overall good, but felt rushed out in the end even though half of the areas were empty. Wine was good, food was great, would come back another time! read more

I went with a couple of friends to this lovely winery for their comedy night. We came two hours early for the 7 o'clock show and ordered a cabana that has a fire pit in the middle, which was super cozy and had scenic views of the Vineyard. We went in the beginning of November, so it was a little chilly so I'd either recommend bringing blankets and dress warmly for the fall weather because the fire pit only radiates a little bit of heat. The wine helped warm up from the inside out. I really enjoyed the Sauvignon Blanc with my salmon dish. It was so so delicious. I've never had salmon that was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside the way that they cooked it. Here. It was perfectly seasoned and the rice was seasoned as well. However, I had to add salt and pepper to the vegetables. I wish that they placed more food on the plate maybe more vegetables and a lot more rice, but I enjoyed my meal thoroughly. The staff was super accommodating and helpful and friendly. I would recommend ordering your food before the show starts because it gets really busy in the tent area. I also ordered their mulled wine which is a white wine version of the holiday drink. It was so so delicious. I highly recommend ordering it, However if you're not a white wine connoisseur, I would skip ordering it. The day we went it happened to be the 40th anniversary of the Vineyard so that was nice. We all got free cake. The community is super friendly and welcoming, which I appreciated. The comedians were good. They definitely cater their jokes to the crowd that they are speaking to, so you do hear references to being a parent and things like that. I'm so glad that I went here on my birthday weekend and highly recommend you to go as well. read more

This five-course wine pairing dinner did not meet expectations or its cost. The wine presentation was lacking, which was disappointing for a featured pairing. Three of us ordered the New York strip steak medium rare; only one was cooked correctly. One arrived medium to well, and the other was well done, dry, and tough. We mentioned this to the waiter, but it didn't seem to matter. The salad was forgettable, though the vegetable empanada, poached pear in wine sauce, and Tarte de Santiago were excellent. At $90 per person for the steak dinners and a total bill of over $550 (including a 20% tip), the experience was not worth the price. I would not recommend it. read more

The girls and I got together for a day at the winery. We reserved 2 cabanas for $16. When I arrived I parked nearby. I walked up, and the nice hostess showed us where the cabanas were. The winery was so nice and I liked the cabanas. It was raining and kept us dry! Noah was our server, and he was ok. Wish he was just a bit more attentive, but he was nice. Besides that we had a good time. I enjoyed the wine samples. I got the OYC samples. I also got the DMC red wine bottle. It was very tasty! My friends said the food was just ok. The bill wasn't bad at all! All in all I had a good experience. read more

We visited Old Cellars Winery aboard the Hunterdon Wine Train Express which included a round trip excursion on the historic Black River & Western Railroad from Flemington, NJ to Old York Cellars Winery in Ringoes, NJ. At the vineyards, we were treated to a wine tasting, a delicious lunch with and panoramic vineyard views. Before lunch, the winery team guided us through a selection of award-winning wines expertly paired with a collection of artisan meats, cheeses, and hand-crafted chocolates from a local chocolatier. I had the grilled chicken sandwich for lunch. The bread was excellent. Our host and servers were friendly and courteous. However, at times it felt like we were abandoned after not seeing staff for extended periods of time. This issue was not a deal breaker but perhaps hopefully something that can be improved upon. The Hunterdon Wine Express is worth the visit. read more

Old York Cellars - Sampler - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Ringoes, New Jersey

If this review were solely about the winery, this is easily four stars and close to five. I think it's a really good winery on multiple levels, and this to me is the best one in the Hunterdon area right now. My top-tier chums and I came here yesterday for the Hunterdon Wine Express, so a significant portion of our experience was devoted to a very specific event and a collaboration with the Black River & Western Railroad - it's just not as good as the winery itself and in my opinion not worth the money. We each paid a little over $100 for this event, which involved a ride on a ye olde train starting in Flemington and travelling to the Ringoes, where you then had to disembark onto shuttle buses that took you to Old York for a sit-down wine tasting/pairing and lunch, and then a return drive/drive back to Flemington. The biggest issue with the travel portion is that the schedule and actual managing of the guests is VERY casual, to the point where we ended up getting onto the shuttle buses at Ringoes and literally just sitting there for 15 minutes waiting for people browsing the tiny gift shop or using the restroom. At no point were we specifically told, "Meet here at this time"; it's very open-ended, so you end up losing significant chunks of time that YOU paid for that could have easily been spent at the winery drinking, exploring and/or relaxing. The train itself has a bathroom, and the winery certainly has plenty. My suggestion would be to completely bypass the bathroom at Ringoes, at least on the way there - if you need to go, go on the train or wait the five minutes to get to the winery. They should just get everyone off the train and immediately into the shuttles. The grounds of Old York are gorgeous, and I say that having not seen the sun at all during our visit. I came here a few years ago when it WAS sunny out, and it's a fantastic optic. You're free to roam amongst the grapes, or you can chill out in the Adirondack chairs looking over the Sourland Mountains. They also have these awesome cabanas that you can reserve for a more intimate experience, though some of them don't have the best views, depending on the cabana (if given the option, I'd try to get the ones by the edge closest to the vineyard). For this experience, they brought us into the Vineyard Tent, which was pretty spacious and had a cool Airstream bar. They had reserved tables for the Wine Express people, which we were directed to shortly upon disembarking from the shuttles. We weren't crazy about the tasting/pairing portion, and it's entirely possible that we're not the target audience for this - we've been to a solid number of wineries at this point, and I think we're just more into doing our own thing/making our own schedule. Lesson learned. But in my opinion, it's too regimented and lengthy, especially given that you're already provided with a list of the pairings and accompanying tasting notes. It felt a little redundant to have someone at the mic just reiterating/elaborating on the tasting notes, especially because they inexplicably had a second person at the mic (same guy who accompanied us on the train; very friendly fellow for what it's worth) who then...also just talked about the tasting notes. None of us understood why the second person was up there too, but it honestly didn't add anything to the experience and probably extended the tasting by an extra five or 10 minutes, which wasn't necessary. The wine and accompanying charcuterie were really good though. I loved the Albarino and the Cab Sauvignon - smooth and spicy, respectively. Would absolutely come back to sip those bad boys. The biggest issue to me though is that they have the pre-ordered lunch IMMEDIATELY after the tasting. Huge mistake. None of us came close to finishing our lunch because we'd...literally just had a bunch of charcuterie a few minutes earlier. They should have a big break in there between the tasting and the lunch to give the participants time to digest. It's a shame too because the food was really good. I got the paella which I thought was excellent. Maybe a little skimpy on the meats/shrimp but really hit the spot. I would have loved to have devoured the whole thing. The service as well was spotty and not managed well at all behind the counter. It wasn't clear who was assigned to our table and it seemed like staffers were just randomly chipping in, which led to miscommunication, overall disorganization and long wait times - as an example, it took us over 10 minutes to receive two glasses of wine. At a winery. Skip the train and just come here directly. The same food/wine options are available regardless, and you don't have to worry about when to get on and off a shuttle bus. Take your time and enjoy the positives of the winery, which unfortunately are negated somewhat from the train experience. read more

We went recently to spend a nice Saturday afternoon trying their wines and having lunch. It was a misty, rainy day. We parked in a muddy lot and tried to find our way to the tasting room, which was closed. No other signs to guide us, so we tried this big ugly tent, located down a muddy path with a small stream in the middle of it. The tent was the tasting room for that day. It was sparsely decorated for the holidays, and someone was loudly playing a guitar and singing off key, in addition, it was cold and drafty. The crushed gravel floor added to the ambiance. Only one or two other tables of 4 was there. Our server was very nice and moved a table for us to get away from the music. We ordered a flight of 6 wines, of which only one, the Pinot Gris was drinkable. Lunch was decent and we ordered one bottle to drink there. The girls couldn't be more accommodating, but the venue was so uncomfortable that we decided to leave instead of lingering on for more wine. Restrooms are down a muddy path in another building that was a permanent structure and heated. We were told that this building was reserved for wine pairings (one table of customers) and not for wine tastings which was in the tent. I suggested to the manager about our experience in that cold tent, and he simply shrugged and said it was a working farm. Aren't most wineries working farms? Except for the view of the vineyard, the rest of the venue looks pretty bleak. We won't be back. read more

Old York Cellars is a staple. I love coming here during the summer/fall. The ambience is beautiful and I love meeting with friends for a relaxed day here. We did a wine tasting where we got to try many of drinks, and then moved over to the restaurant where we listened to some live music and ordered a cheeseboard with some drinks. The location is beautiful with ample seating. Love this place and highly recommend you check it out. I am looking forward to going back again! read more

Best of the best ! Members for years! Small bites delish! Parings with wine and food yum!

Drove in on a Friday around 1pm. It was a gorgeous Winter day unseasonably warm. The place has changed a bit since we were last here. The setting is very nice with tables and covered areas looking out over the fields. We proceeded to the smallish building on the right as you come down from the parking area and it seemed to take forever to place our order. We were then informed that our order had not been placed but that we would receive a text with a link and then we could place our order. A bit ridiculous. We were then taken to another building where were were told our tasting would take place. We sat inside as it was quite breezy outdoors. There was one other couple present. Our server was friendly a part timer from California. We ordered a Reserve Tasting. Two whites a rose and three reds. They were very good. Thank goodness our server said don't worry about the link - he just took our order. He was nice enough and we left a good tip. Unfortunately we were disappointed as we were served wine in Plastic cups. While the wines were generally very good they were overpriced by at least $10/bottle. My wife asked for their port which we recalled from our previous visit. It is now in a typical port bottle named South Paw port. It was ok . They changed the bottle from the old triangle. They have a proper food offering. I attach a pic of the menu. The Valentines Day Special looked very nice. We noted that Darryl Mack (DMC), makes his wine here. Pretty cool. This is a nice place to sit and have a glass or two and the food is probably worth a try but they need to get real with their prices and pay a bit more attention to details. We would return when in the area. Mark & Nancy. read more

It's been awhile since we visited and I now remember what a great place this is. I ordered the "popular" (can't remember the exact name) tasting and I liked every wine I tasted. Served in plastic cups BUT they will give you a glass if you ask. We also ordered a glass of Malbec and a meatball and chicken sandwich - both delish! Friendly service, wonderful patrons, stellar views and great food and wine. And the pups loved it as well! read more

The wife and I visited yesterday, Sunday October 5. The service is attentive, food was good but sparingly. The Artisanal Spanish charcuterie was tasty but too small for the price. We also had chicken empanadas. The chicken was a bit greasy. The wine was acceptable. Better then I expected. The restrooms were atrocious. The wife could not use it because the room was filthy, no bath tissue and no hand towels. We donot plan to visit again. read more

My husband and I had a pretty bad experience at Old York Cellars. We visited for our 6 year wedding anniversary, and we were very excited to visit. After waiting at our table for our server to come to us, we ordered a wine sampler and appetizer. While the wine and food were delicious, it took a while to receive both items. We ordered our mains and a bottle of wine right when our apps came out. It took almosf a half hour to get the wine, and we had to remind multiple servers about our order. The terribly slow service was apprently common, as we also heard other tables complaining about a similar issues. The staff said they were busy but there were multiple unoccupied tables around us. We waited nearly an hour to get our food, we asked multiple waiters, and were told they were checking on it. They said it was still coming soon and at that point we said we no longer wanted it and just paid for what we did have. This experience left a sour note on our anniversary. We wanted to purchase some extra bottles of wine, but this terrible experience stopped any chance of that. We won't return. read more

We went with our two dogs on a Friday night (6 pm) and reserved the Adirondack chairs with a table overlooking the vineyards. We could hear the music from where we sat, and it was perfect. The music was DJ, and he was playing "chill beachy" music, which was very nice and relaxing. We had the meatball parm sandwich and the chicken empanada salad with the 2023 chardonnay. The food was good, and the chardonnay was very good; we recommend it. It was light and crisp but with complexity at the same time. It was a perfect night. read more

Definitely make reservations before you come. We arrived and it was a beautiful day, with the sun beaming and weather just right. We had reservations for the cabana for 8 people. You place your order through their online page and it automatically deducts the $15 per person credit you get back. My group was not a fan of the sweet wines (tasting) and stated that only one was sweet. I really liked the peach bellini, I'm not a wine drinker so this was perfect for me. It was a slushie drink that was very sweet. We ordered a cheese board but due to the pandemic everything was placed in separate containers. I did see another party bring their own cheese board which I didn't know you could do, but certainly will next time. Staff was friendly and very helpful. I had some issues with ordering (as people could not make up their minds) and staff was quick to make the adjustments for us. read more

This was one of the first places I went to for an outing since the pandemic started so this review is a bit late, but better late than never lol I went in mid-July on a Saturday for a 12 pm reservation. I loved the contactless menu where we were able to place our order online. The tables were spaced out enough to allow for social distancing too. We had an assortment of their wines - Blueberry, Peach, and Vidal Blanc. I really enjoyed the blueberry and peach wines! I'm a sucker for sweet wine. We also had the wine slushies which the whole table was a fan of! You have the option to bring your own food! My boyfriend's sister brought her charcuterie board along with a beautiful selection of meats and cheeses, so we enjoyed that with our Old York Cellars wine. Her friend also brought rose champagne cupcakes for dessert! Overall, the experience was very enjoyable and we took really cute pictures in the field (safely away from everyone else, of course) before leaving! read more

I had a great time at Old York Cellars, I went with 3 other friends and we rented a Cabana. We all decided on the chicken sandwich which was pretty good. We did the wine sampling and ended up purchasing the selections that we enjoyed. The vineyard is beautiful, however it was a quiet day, I assume due to the unpredictable weather with on and off rain showers. I will like to come back when it's no so quiet and something is going on. This is a great gather spot or even for date night, there was actually a baby shower going on next to us, they had 2 Cabanas, but could have used a 3rd. Cabanas were reasonably priced at $15/per person. All payments were made and managed online, so you have to create an account which could be a pain because the person who registers is the person making payment. I would say if you're looking for something to do, go and check out their website and make your reservations, hey with great friends you can have an awesome experience. read more

Went here for the first time about a month ago. The atmosphere is really beautiful and welcoming. Really such a beautiful property, well maintained and well kept. We sat under the tent and tried some wines as well as a cheese tray. Amazing. The tray we got had three different choices of cheeses, almonds, and olives. We also got the paella del chef , which was AMAZING. Highly recommend going here. They also had live music playing outside under the tent, which was really nice and enjoyable read more

Unfortunately the day we visited it was raining. They have a tent outside with space heaters which helped. Make sure you have a reservation. You order the wine through their website. They also have snacks you can order. We had the trio dip which was good. I ordered the premium flight, it was a hit or miss with the wines. Overall an enjoyable experience. read more

I came here with a group to celebrate a friend's bday. She researched the place in advance and informed our group of the cost, which was fair - it was $20. The day of our visit it was snowing but there was not an empty seat in the tasting room. 2 people in our group arrived first and had already been seated when we the remainder of us arrived. When my friend, whose bday it was sat down a woman came to the table and asked if the cookies that my friend brought in were for her - my friend responded "no" and the woman walked away. Minutes later, we would learn that this woman was our sommelier; when we realized this we asked the woman what her name was. Soon after, tasting flights were brought to the table and then the presentation and sampling began. We struggled to hear the sommelier over the other guests so she came to our table - she was cold and seemed like she was annoyed... The wines that we sampled were not to my liking - I prefer sweet wines mostly and that's what my tasting flight consisted of but only 1 of the 6 was able to whet my palate. There was a food menu available with light fare; we all ordered chicken samosas which were good but the process to order them was complex... My friend sent each of us a link that the winery had sent her; we each ordered from our phones and each input payment info for our Individual orders but my friend who received the link direct from the winery was seeing the accumulated cost of everyone's orders on her phone. We thought it was strange but because everyone had input payment info for our individual orders we didn't think much of it. We finished our samosas and our tasting flights and left to get food at a nearby restaurant... About 2 hours later, my friend whose bday it was (and had arranged the outing) was contacted by someone from the winery, who stated that our bill was not paid. We were flummoxed! Why in the world were each of us promoted to input payment info when it was not applied?! After a little back and forth and verification, we all learned that NO ONE was charged. My friend settled the bill. This was only my 2nd time doing a winery tour outside of a full day multi-stop tour in Napa; needless to say this experience did not compare. If the anyone at this winery is looking for constructive criticism I recommend that all staff be educated on basic customer service - staff doesn't need to be best friends with customers but customers at a minimum should be greeted by staff (especially by the assigned sommelier), who should also introduce themselves and the payment process should be explained (I am not sure if this was a miss on my friend's behalf or the winery's). Don't get me wrong - all other staff at the winery that we interacted with was pleasant and accommodating - I guess our sommelier was the sour grape of the bunch (lol)... Try at your own risk but I will not be returning. read more

Old York Cellars - Flight - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Ringoes, New Jersey

I have been coming here off and on for years. This visit, there was a definite decline in quality of service and food. You have to pay a non refundable $5 per person for a seat in the service area, but then the server comes by very infrequently. The first menu item I ordered, they had run out of. This was early in the afternoon. It took another 30 minutes to find a server to give a replacement order. When it came, the tomatoes, in the Garden State, were half-ripe and the chicken dry. Such a shame, as their wines are very tasty. They used to offer a Veterans' discount, but not longer. Therefore, this winery has come off my list. read more

We celebrated our son's 21st birthday here. We came close to closing, because Google had the hours wrong. The staff was still so accommodating. We tasted all the wine they had available.

It's such a relaxing place and also family friendly. We are definitely going back! read more

I learned about the Jersey Fest at the Winery from Yelp and won two tickets to the festival which included food trucks, vendors, live music, as well as a screening at sunset of several short films hosted by the Garden State Film Festival. There was plenty of parking, particularly past the vineyard, which made for an enjoyable walk up to the festival itself. With entry to the fest, we were each given a wine glass and tickets to be used for tastings. I especially enjoyed the peach wine and the chardonnay. There were also raspberry and rosé wine slushies for purchase which helped to cool us down while under the hot sun. The music got livelier as the day went on, and there was plenty of seating and room to dance. We brought chairs and enjoyed our snacks from the food trucks while sitting in the vineyard. The event ran from 12:00 pm to 10:00 pm. I'm looking forward to returning to experience the tour and barrel tastings since we missed it during the festival and am interested in any other future events. read more

Wine flights are meh. I had the empanadas they were great. Having to wait over 25 mins to get a glass and 2 empanadas was annoying after waiting 20 mins for a flight. What the heck?!

Discombobulated service. read more

Always a great time at this winery. It's a bit off the beaten path but fairly easy to get to. They have ample parking and so many beautiful spots to enjoy wine. It's seems like all of the employees are passionate about wine and happy to help you. It really is nice at any season, in the winter you can taste inside and spring, summer or fall, you can take advantage of their many events or relax with friends and some snacks on their patios. Now on to the wine. They have many different to pick from and all were great. Today I tried the Pinot Gris and really enjoyed. It was crisp, cool and perfect for a summer day. They have cute labels and you can even personalize your own bottle. I love the garden state/ tpk theme on the bottles. read more

We had a great time at this winery. We attended their wine festival event, and learned that the current owner has invested quite a bit into improving and expanding this winery. The event was managed exceptionally well, starting with staff to guide you to the parking area. We tasted at 3 different wine tasting stations and found a mixed level of friendliness. It was a bit tepid at the first station, but we moved to other locations and found the other servers to be friendlier. We also had a chance to sample paella from their Chef Jose. There was a paella demo, and Chef Jose clearly took pride in his trade. (I plan to visit the restaurant). The vineyards were beautiful, and it was a lovely way to spend an afternoon. After tasting numerous wines...my favorite was the gold medal chardonnay. read more

The vineyard grounds were really pretty and luckily we had beautiful weather. We came for the tapas and wine tasting. The gazpacho in our pairing was so delicious, I wanted to take a gallon home. The other tapas: tortilla espanola, chorizo, albondigas (meatball), serano ham and monchego cheese, and bacon wrapped dates were also really tasty. The wines were good. Besides the wines in the tasting, we also had the blueberry sparkling wine which is sooooo good. We each bought 2 bottles home. read more

We decided to come here because it was sooooo nice outside and I try to do's vineyard every vacation. The drive from where we were coming was about an hour. We were coming from Montclair,NJ. The area surrounding it was beautiful. Very rural with lots of farms. Entering and checking in was a breeze. The girl who serviced us was very attentive and helped us out with the ordering because it's an online system (so just know that). We decided to go with the wine and tapas pairing which we thought was a great deal. It is only available Monday - Thursday. We got to choose from many delicious courses. You get to choose two courses with either a dry or sweet wine to go with it (that they will pair for you or if you have a preference then more power to you). For our first courses we chose chicken empanadas and Spanish meatballs which was so full of flavor and delicious! For our second courses we each had a paella. My boyfriend had the vegetable paella and I had the paella del chef which had chicken, chorizo and shrimp. It was again full of flavor like I like my food. We also had the wine infused cupcakes, which must have had a very light wine because you barely taste it. In addition to all of that we also could not be at a winery and not have a cheese board which was nice. To be honest, it was too much so if you do go for the wine and tapas, that is all you need because you do get decent portions for $30/person. The service here was great! Everyone was friendly and catered to our needs. We did get two bottles of wine to go which were the raspberry and peach blush wines. The peach one (which was paired with the paella del chef) was absolutely delicious and it really does taste like peach! The blush wines are $15/bottle so the price is definitely doable! Honestly if you are looking for a great winery to go with friends or your significant other, this is the place! I would definitely come here again! I love the food and the prices for the food! read more
