    One of our yelp friends was wine tasting in Geyersville. So when we were coming south on our road trip we noticed the exit. Doing some quick yelping we found Pech Merle having a solid 5 stars. The winery dog noticing our dog quickly came out to meet us. Very friendly dog. Olivia our server was very nice and explained the winerys origin and destined future build on a vineyard. We tasted probably 5 to 6 wines, really liked two. The sangiovese and grenache and bought a bottle of each. The tasting room is nicely decorated and has many nice touches. There is an outside patio that is completely private just off the tasting room. This is a fun place, they even have a 1908 Harley Davidson motorcycle as a decoration. Pretty cool. I would definitely recommend this winery!

    Oh my gosh. I absolutely adore the vibes of this place. Super laidback and the service was fantastic. The owners were such a sweet and friendly couple. Definitely poured more than $15 worth of tastings. Anyways, highly recommend!

    Tasting room fun.

    This was one of the best stops on our Winter WINEland tour. They had delicious chicken and white bean chili with homemade cornbread which was complemented by the delicious Pinot Noir. We scored an amazing 6-pack of Pinot for $90. Great deal on a great wine.

    We came here for the Wine & Food Affair event last weekend. Really nice set-up and friendly staff! The wines are good. My favorite is the 2013 Rocky Ridge Rockpile Zinfandel. It sells for $45. Their other wines are just as expensive, if not more. The 2012 Cab Franc is $49 and the 2009 Cab Sauv is $53. A bit pricey for your every day wines, and therefore I'm giving them 4 stars instead of 5. While I'm not opposed to paying those prices for a bottle, none of their bottles really screamed, "take me home". I would definitely recommend stopping by here though, if you're in the area!

    Pinot Noir.....nuff said!

    Wonderful selection of wines and a warm/inviting ambiance. Hands down the best Pinot Noir I've tried in years. Family tradition upheld to the highest standard with 5 stars for hospitality and professionalism. Looking forward to the 24th Annual WINTER WONDERLAND on Jan. 16-17 2016. Thanks Jenna.

    Enjoying Fathers Day out here!!!

    We went to this winery for my 70th birthday. It was absolutely fabulous. We have been other times…read morebut this time was most special. Our sommelier (wine steward) went above and beyond. Her name is Cheryl. We were on the upper level. She made our tasting very memorable. Please ask for her. The ambiance was over the top with all the paraphernalia from Coppola's movies. It's so much FUN. Thanks to Cheryl, I will always remember this as the best vineyard ever!!

    Came by on a cold, windy, rainy afternoon for lunch with some friends…read more We were greeted on entering and directed to where we need to go. The restaurant is the building to the left as you enter as well as the museum. We ordered the 3 course menu with wine pairing for what I thought was a great price. I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed the wine pairings. The crab fritter with caviar: 3.5 stars. It was a fried potato ball with minimal crab. The caviar and accompanying sauce is what made the dish. The mushroom risotto: 3 stars. Perhaps it's because I don't care for risotto - too moist for rice. However the flavor was good, albeit a little salty. The mushroom were cooked for perfection and delicious, wish I had more. The salmon with broccolini:3 stars. cooked to order. I like mine well done due to preventions of parasites. But it was still moist. The accompanying sauce did not help flavor much but I guess I could have put more salt. I really enjoy the veggies in the dish. The broccolini was cooked the way I like and the rings of squash were tender and sweet. The hubby got the beef shoulder for his third course:5 stars. Tender and falls apart much like a pot roast. Flavorful as well. Apple tart and ice cream: 4 stars. I actually enjoyed the dish. Not too sweet. You can taste all the flavors and texture. Over all we had a great time with the wine, food was accompaniment. The museum was fun to stroll thru as well.

When I tell you that my friend and I were hooked from beginning to end during our tasting, I am not kidding you. Reece was absolutely phenomenal and so was our entire tasting experience at Zialena. After passing by Zialena several times on my trips to DeLorimier, my friend and I finally decided to check them out for a tasting. You know I have to start off with their estate and grounds. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! I will always be a fan of classic winery setups, BUT... I LOVED the modernized look of Zialena! The exterior of their building alone is so eye catching and unique. And then you walk inside and think, damn this place is so chic and hip! I love the artwork, I love the stylish tables and chairs with the bright orange seat cushions, I love the youthful and fun atmosphere and vibe. It's just wonderful. Those views! I underestimated how great they'd be because you can't see much from the outside. But once you're sitting on their patio, the views seem to be endless. Countless views of the hills and their beautiful vineyards. It helped that it was a stunning day outside too. Reece set us up on their side patio which was glorious. Now about this wine; fan-freakin-tastic! I loved every single wine that I tried. All were scrumptious. I'll get more into the wines in a bit, but first I'm gonna tell you a little bit about what I learned from Reece. Although the actual tasting room is newish, the winery is a fourth generation run operation by the Mazzoni family. The family hails from Italy and they've been harvesting grapes and producing wine for years. The winery is actually named after their Great Aunt Lena (Zia Lena in Italian). Mark and Lisa (sister and brother) are the owners and they also run the winery. Zialena grows grapes for over 90 different varietals and all of them are estate grown! That's right; those vineyards that surround their property are actually their own. They use whole cluster fermentation to produce their wines which basically means that they ferment the grapes with the stems (the stems aren't removed). This allows for more of an elaborate flavor profile in their wines. They also ferment in concrete with the top open. Never really heard of open top fermentation prior to coming here, but it allows for more oxygen to come in contact which helps with faster yeast production amongst other things. Alright, let me take my geeky wine brain hat off for a second. Reece had us completely engaged during this tasting. I literally started taking notes because it was so much interesting information. But those wines, dear GEEZUS! So, so good. Their unique fermentation techniques really paid off because their wines are so rich and complex. We tasted one welcoming white wine (Sauvignon Blanc) and 4 reds which were all incredible. The Cappella Red Blend was to DIE for and undoubtedly my favorite wine of the bunch. The spices were so pronounced but yet the wine went down oh so smooth. Took a bottle of that and I don't think it even lasted a few days. Reece was so knowledgeable and confident. This man probably could have sold us the earth and we would have bought it. Seriously. So engaging and we loved it. But wow, I'm impressed. Zialena is a one of a kind.

They also have it set up where you can play bocce ball or you can sit in Adirondack chairs to sip your wines. The building that they have for events is an original building. I can't remember the year, but it was 1800 something which is a great backdrop to your relaxing with a glass of wine. We ended up here because we decided to pick a random vineyard to try while we were in Healdsburg. I signed up for a tasting and noted that it was my birthday that we were celebrating. When we arrived, they had a special treat for us, a glass of their sparkling Brut which was delicious! Because it was my birthday they set us up in the tasting room in the photo I have attached which is also a special treat! The view from this room was spectacular overlooking their expanse of vineyards and Mount Saint Helena!! Tonya was amazing! She guided us through all of our tastings, which actually was quite a few at this particular vineyard. And we even got super lucky that the founders son, who now runs, the vineyard was there he even stopped by to chat with us for a bit! Another thing that I really liked about this tasting as they give you snacks to pair with the wines throughout your tasting but you can also buy larger snacks if you wish. My husband and I agreed that the Cabernet Franc and the Primitivo were our favorites! Another fun thing about this vineyard is they make and sell their own olive oil. We, of course, joined the membership ordered a case of wine and took home some olive oil! It was a fantastic day!

    Possibly the best "go-to" wine available to the public....ALL of their wines are rad and terrific!…read more6 Stars!
