    Tasting room décor

    Tasting Flight: $20 for 6 1oz. pours We usually like this little winery, located in the back of a business park. Unfortunately, the service was lacking on this latest visit. The two young ladies working were mostly pleasant, but there was little interaction, and their knowledge of the wines they were pouring was not very in-depth. At one point, I felt that I knew more about their wines than they did, as we've been frequent visitors over the years. WINES: They have a decent selection of whites, rosé, and reds. We both enjoyed the '17 Chardonnay, but were split on a couple of the reds, and the others did not suit our palates this time. I was also a little disappointed that we weren't able to try their latest Natalie Grace Syrah releases ('16 & '17), or the '17 Taylor Noelle Syrah, as these have always been our favorites here. My mother-in-law had a glass of their Sangria, and I must say that it was quite nice. Overall, we were a little disappointed, and didn't purchase any bottles to take home this time. I'm sure we'll stop in again to try future releases.

    It was raining on a Wednesday night and my friend didn't tell me where we going. So when he pulled into an industrial parking lot that was empty, I started thinking, did I need an escape plan?! Welp, he made another turn and Seal Beach Winery was in the back corner of this industrial parking lot. He told me we were going wine tasting (I kept my escape plan to myself hehehehehe). We entered and it was very small but nice location. In the front, it was one couple and in their second room, it was a couple people. We decided to sit at the bar so we could see /hear the rain as we did our tasting. It was 6 pours starting with white wine. I am not a Pinot Grigio kinda girl but theirs was good. Of the 6, my favorite was Sangiovese and second was their Pinot Noir. In the end, we bought a bottle of Sangiovese so we can enjoy it at home. Janay serviced us and was very nice and attentive. She answered all our questions and was knowledgeable about the wines. The one star deduction was for the older gentleman that worked there. He did not speak once nor did he even smile. He literally had a unpleasant face every time he looked at us- definitely not inviting. As I read previous reviews the following night after our wine tasting, it seems I'm not the only one who picked up on his attitude. While we were leaving, we thanked Janay and said bye, even the patrons said happy new year to us but the older gentleman took a glance at us and turned away with a repugnant vibe. Based on Janya's service and the closeness of this winery, we might return.

    Here's their reply to my post. We are very aware of people with disabilities. There are two other spots, and often none of the are used. We do not block the ramp up over the curb. And we always help any of our guests out to their cars or transportation if the need or request it. We choose to do events on the weekends when there is less traffic. We have members that are disabled and they appreciate our efforts to accommodate their needs. We do maybe 5 or 6 of these per year, always in the afternoon when we are the only business that is open. Note: this picture was in the morning and the ramp is blocked.

    Event coming up in Oct 2022!

    I found out about Seal Beach Winery recently through a Groupon deal. Purchased the Groupon (which is a really great deal). Their website has very clear information/ instruction such as "no reservation required" and "we don't serve food but feel free to bring your own cheeseboard" so that was super helpful. Since there's no reservation required, we randomly stopped by on a Saturday afternoon. The exterior was a bit hidden as they are inside a warehouse/ commercial office area and was the last unit. From outside, you can hardly tell that it's a "winery." The up side is that they have plenty of parking spaces and they a lot of indoor seats. The wines were great and so was the service! We had a good time and are fans now. It's nice to have a local place to get great wine. They seem to be having trouble with marketing maybe due to the location, so please come give it a try and spread the words!

    My visit to the Seal Beach Winery on 5/29/22 was great. I arrived at about 2:30PM. The place was at half occupancy. It is in an industrial part of Long Beach, CA. Once inside, it felt a bit small. The decor was no frills, yet, it was clean. I sat at the bar as most of the smaller tables were taken by couples. I didn't ask, but it seems like they were able to accommodate groups of up to 6 - possibly more. Clean restroom on site! Parking is ample and free. Their tastings are $15 for six 1-ounce pours. There are other good deals if you bring a friend along including a Yelp checkin offer: "50% off $15 Wine Tasting for 2." There is also a Yelp deal: "$35 for $50." I tried the following red wines: + 2014 Pinot Noir Clone 115 (Rio Vista Vineyard/Santa Rita Hills) + 2016 Petit Verdot (McGinley Vineyard/Happy Canyon of Santa Barbara) + 2016 Merlot (McGinley Vineyard) + 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve (Estelle Vineyard/Los Olivos District) + 2016 Malbec (Taylor Noelle Wines/Happy Canyon) + 2016 Syrah (Harrison Clarke Vineyard/Ballard Canyon) I brought home a bottle of 2014 Pinot Noir Clone 115 ($43). I intend on bringing this to share with my mom and grandmother to New Mexico later this summer. It's a lighter wine that seems like it would pair well with a variety of dishes. Each tasting was presented with an excellent description of the flavors and where the grapes hailed from... my wine pourer spoke about the area much in the way that former CIA officer Bryan Dean Wright does on his daily podcast "The President's Daily Brief" - "if you look at a map..." Love geography & others who do too! I asked a plethora of questions and the gentleman working that day was not only enthusiastic about their wines, but kind and efficient as well. Made my Memorial Day weekend! TIP I brought my own cheese plate - highly recommend this to you too.

    First tasting - Chardonnay

    I had no clue that this cute little gem existed until I found them on Groupon. I bought a wine tasting package for two and it was worth every penny. The tasting pours were standard 1 oz for 6 wines -- 3 whites and 3 reds. All were delightful and had unique tasting profiles. My favorite red was the merlot and Chardonnay for the white. The Merlot was surprisingly complex while the Chardonnay was light and bright. Service was on point so no complaints there. While they didn't have bites when I went, the server mentioned that they'll start offering them next weekend. Go visit Seal Beach Winery if you feel like having some drinks after a tiring day or even just whenever.

    Cute boutique winery for wine tasting, wines by the glass or bottle. They have a great selection of wine and good homemade Sangria during the summer months.

    When we arrived at this spot that looks like it's in a business center we were warmly greeted by a server or host and an owner. We quickly were seated and provided to tasting glasses for our experience. We didn't wait more than five minutes for the first tasting place was clean not very many people were there, so most of the attention was on us we got to ask questions about certain names and we even left with the bottle overall very good experience. I hope they have better food options, though cause drinking all that wine on an empty stomach probably not the greatest idea. The overall ambience of the winery was very chill low music decent lighting. Definitely will come back.

    Nice little clean place. Is this the main event of the night? No. BUT it's a cute little pit stop in your day. They are no longer allowed to sell food so if you want charcuterie board you will need to bring your own. The wine tasting is very affordable and i enjoyed 4 out of the 6 wines very much so.

    First time at this winery. Loved the ambiance, and our wine connoisseur was fabulous.

    It's a peaceful environment the music is okay A little extra in the glass is always better the location was questionable however once you come inside it's a pretty chill environment

    This is our second time coming to this winery. It is a long drive from Los Angeles (1hour, 15 mins. today) but it is always worth it. Janay really knew her history of each of the wines we tasted on the flight, as well as being very personable. Highly recommend this winery for anyone.
