    Monte Xanic was the very first tasting we did on our trip through the valley, and let me tell you,…read moreit was a mistake to start here. Why? Because it set the bar so impossibly high that every winery after had some serious catching up to do. Spoiler alert: none of them did. This was hands down the best tasting of our entire trip. Let's talk about the grounds first because WOW. The place is gorgeous. The kind of gorgeous where you keep stopping to take pictures and your camera roll fills up before you've even had a sip. It's the whole package, beautiful views, well kept, just stunning all around. But pretty doesn't pour itself into your glass, so let's get to the good stuff. The wine was delicious. Every single one. And the staff? Incredible. They knew their stuff inside and out but never made you feel like you were taking a pop quiz. Knowledgeable AND approachable, which is a combo you don't always get. They made the whole thing feel welcoming and fun instead of stuffy. Speaking of fun, during one of the tastings we played a scented game where you try to identify the aromas, and I loved it. It was clever, it was interactive, and it made the experience feel like something special rather than just sit, swirl, sip, repeat. Little touches like that are what separate a good tasting from a great one. If you're anywhere near the valley, do yourself a favor and put Monte Xanic at the top of your list. Just maybe save it for last so it doesn't ruin everything else for you. You've been warned!

    Service is great, very welcoming. Lower level can get full and you might have to wait in your car…read moreby the security gate before they let you through, reservations are not accepted at the lower level. Reservation is required for the upper level but that is mostly for the specialized wine tasting and tour which I also recommend once. Lakeside is always great. Their rose is okay, chardonnay is good and their sauvignon blanc is the way to go. Ambiance is very relaxing and intimate. Music playing in the background.

Tucked away in what looks like an old bank, this little winery instantly pulls you in with its vintage charm. The moment I walked in, I couldn't help but notice the high ceilings, the old safe door still standing proudly in the back, and the way every corner was filled with some part of the wine story--barrels stacked neatly, bottles arranged on tall shelves, and rustic touches that make the place feel authentic and full of history. It's not a huge space, but that's part of what makes it special. There's something intimate about it--like you've discovered one of Ensenada's best-kept secrets. The decor has this old-school feel that pairs perfectly with the warm, inviting vibe of the place. You can tell that the people who run Santo Tomás love what they do. The staff couldn't have been friendlier--they greeted me with genuine smiles, offered insight into their wines, and made the whole experience feel personal rather than commercial. Even before tasting anything, I could tell the wine was going to be good. The atmosphere just set the mood perfectly. And sure enough, each glass had that balance of depth and flavor that makes you want to linger over it and enjoy every sip. Santo Tomás isn't flashy or modern--it's timeless. If you appreciate good wine, friendly people, and a sense of history in the places you visit, this spot is worth every minute. So if you ever find yourself in Ensenada, do yourself a favor and step inside. You'll leave already planning your next visit. Enjoy!

It's a really nice building with a big courtyard out front and clean bathrooms. The woman who ran our wine tasting was funny and inviting and really made the experience. The white wine was my favorite which surprised me as I'm usually more of a rose person. It was light and fruity and refreshing. I also enjoyed the olive oil tasting. Highly recommend stopping in!

Easily the highlight of the trip for our entire group. I'll definitely be returning here every time I visit Valle de Guadalupe.

    I don't know where to even begin with my review of our experience at Trevista so I will begin with…read more"Hay no coincidencias" I had saved Trevista before our visit and didnt realize the requirement for pre reservations at most places in the Valle rather than just winging it so I emailed on Friday hoping to manage a reservation for the next day. I was thrilled to see an email on Saturday saying we were welcome for the 2nd tasting of the day and then filled with panic as I saw when it was sent, didn't have service and that time was quickly approaching. Thankfully i got wifi, replied that we would love to be there, got a reply saying we were good to go and off we went. I will thank our luck a large amount on the weather as many people cancelled due to pouring rain and flooded roads. The roads are rough, especially in the rain so a larger vehicle or a tour driver would definitely be beneficial but we made it happen. Upon arrival we were greeted with hugs, conversation, drinks and blankets and it honestly felt like we just showed up to the home of a family member. With the weather, it ended up just being the two of us and another couple who drove out for the day and previously was married at the vineyard which made for the most intimate afternoon tasting. My fiancé (oh that's still weird to say haha) is not really a wine drinker and I don't usually drinks reds but we both loved all 3 years of the tasting and the tapas that come with each were so delicious. One of the pairings was a taco with meat that I don't eat so I gave it to him and was more than thankful when Hilda noticed and asked her team to make a potato taco for me to take part. With the impeccable vibes, Carlos decided this was the right time and place and completely unbeknownst to me he had let James and Hilda know about his plan and they assisted in the greatest intimate proposal I could have ever dreamed of, rain and chilly temperatures and all. After our tasting we all spoke around the table like we had known each other for years and it really was the most special day and experience I could have ever asked for. We will definitely be back sooner than later, especially since we both fell in love with not only the humans on site but vineyard good boy Corcho. Thank you both for your hospitality, I honestly can't express it enough.
