Cute, family-owned winery close to the local Casino. I came with some friends for wine tasting. The…read moretasting was $15 pp for 4 wines. They pick for you but all the wines were good! Then we got a bottle for $25 of Vementino which was delicious! We brought some snacks so didn't get any there but Debbie (one of the owners) brought us some local pretzels that were bomb! The only down side: you have to sit outside so if it's a cold day make sure you bring enough layers.

Great little local winery. If a country park and a winery got together...Triple B would be the…read moreresult. Outdoor seating amoungst the oak trees, next to the vineyard here is a great way to enjoy some wine and not feel like you are in a big corporate business. I really like that the wines are estate grown and naturally made, so yes...you kind of never know what you are going to get. A certain style will be very different here from one vintage to the next. That is how nature does wine. But, there is always a great selection so I have always found something I have liked and been able to sit, enjoy, and sip a bit. Cheers!

It was a beautiful day and we enjoyed the view. From the patio you can see the big balloon at the Wild Animal Park floating up and down. We decided to have a glass of red. Our friendly servers were so helpful, offering us tastes of their wines to help us decide which one we would get. Tough choices because they were all very good! A very nice vibe here. They are only open Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Award winning winemaking - a variety of vines and techniques, resulting to a divine experience of flavors and smells. I had the privilege of visiting with local friends (yes, those in the know) and I am enchanted. We were greeted with grace and enthusiasm, seated at a high table with a unique vista of the vines, and welcomed while resting our eyes in the views and blue skies surrounding the winery. If you are a wine connoisseur and not know this vineyard... your great loss. I'll be back!

Monserate Winery is one of the most beautiful venues in Southern California…read more We recently had the privilege of partnering with the Monserate team to help showcase Monte Bella, their newest luxury event space, and we were blown away. Every detail feels intentional, elegant, and thoughtfully designed. The venue has a timeless European charm, with beautiful architecture, stunning views, and such a romantic atmosphere. If you're looking for a wedding venue that feels exclusive and luxurious, Monserate Winery is absolutely a great choice!

Before lunch, the owner, Frank, welcomed our group into the wine cellar for an impromptu tasting and shared the story of how the winery came to be. It added such a personal touch and made the experience feel far more memorable than a typical restaurant visit. The setting is absolutely stunning. Perched high above the valley, the property offers sweeping views of rolling hills, vineyards, and distant mountains that seem to stretch on forever. The vine-covered terrace provides just enough shade to linger over a glass of wine while taking in the scenery. On a clear day, it feels like you've stumbled onto a little slice of Tuscany hidden in San Diego County. The food was equally enjoyable. We shared a variety of thin-crust pizzas, burrata salad, and charcuterie boards, all of which disappeared quickly. And then came the cannoli, the perfect sweet ending to an already wonderful meal. Between the breathtaking views, warm hospitality, excellent service, delicious food, and outstanding wine, this was an experience rather than just a lunch. I left already looking forward to coming back for wine and dinner.

Ordering is done at the bar, but they bring the food right to your table, making it easy to relax and enjoy the scenery. The fries were surprisingly delicious and the portion was much larger than expected. For wine, I had the Sauvignon Blanc and my husband tried the white flight. Both were excellent and paired perfectly with the beautiful setting. Between the wine, food, views, and dog-friendly atmosphere, we'll definitely be back.

Pro-Tip: They have a pizza vendor on site, but they ran out by the time we got there at 6:00 PM. Definitely get there earlier and order sooner rather than later!

There are options for small bites here or bring your own. New cafe coming soon and lots of summer events. Learned a ton from chatting with the owner Lynn. They certainly pour their entire heart and soul into this property and the wines. The folks here aren't employees, they are family. It feels intimate and real which is so refreshing.

You're welcome to bring your own food, and on Sundays they offer paella. 3 out of 5 for the service - the friendliness and warmth of the interaction seems to vary per customer. Tasting - 5 varieties; starts with their Albarino, then Rosado, followed by Garnacha, Vin Rouge (Bordeaux blend), and ends with their Tinto (Riga blerd). They'll give you a pour at the counter and you return for the next glass whenever you're ready. Overall a nice place to spend a short while with great company.
