We Came on a Friday after work to have their grilled cheese and tomato soup. I also saw on a Yelp…read morereview their Beef and Ricotta Meatballs were a hit. We were not disappointed. I've had the Grilled cheese sandwich served with the tomato soup before and it was consistently delicious. The meatballs were a surprise. I was amazed on how it tasted.

We look forward to coming back for the same dishes to enjoy their fire towers, amazing food, and Amazing wine on their beautifully decorated patio.

My first time out at Valensin Vineyard and what a pleasant surprise. Freestyle events are rare and…read morecouldn't pass up the opportunity to enjoy great music at a great venue. Valensin is a hidden gem with its beach-like environment and tasty wine. The taco truck on site was a nice feature also. Plenty of parking, a chill environment and great place to hang out with friends and meet people. I'm sure I'll become a regular with their many events like comedy night, R&B, freestyle, paddle boards, etc.

I came here for their dueling piano event and was pleasantly surprised by how beautiful the…read moreproperty is. The vineyard is very well maintained, with manicured grounds and a scenic lake. They even offer boating and paddleboarding, which adds a fun, active touch to the experience. Parking: Free with a decent number of spots for around 100 guests, but it could feel congested for larger events. There's only one way to in and out, so plan accordingly. Also, the road leading to the vineyard is quite dark at night: some areas have little to no lighting, so make sure your headlights are working well, especially since it's a bit of a drive from the main street. Drinks: Some of their popular options include: * Peach Mango Sparkling (11%, Lodi) * Zinfandel 2024 (15.6%, Lodi) * Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 2019 (14%, Lodi) * Pomegranate Sparkling (11%, Lodi) They offer picnic snack trays, and for events, they bring in food trucks, which is a nice touch. Service: Friendly and efficient. One downside was staffing and restroom access. It seemed like they were a bit understaffed, and only 2 restrooms were open while others were locked. For an event with around 100 people, this led to long lines, especially in the cold. The event itself was held in a white outdoor tent by the lake, which created a great atmosphere. However, the path to the tent is all gravel with no defined walkway, something to keep in mind if you're wearing heels or thin sandals. Overall, it's a lovely venue with a unique setting, great for small weddings or intimate gatherings.

My friends and I had one wine tasting each, which consisted of one red, two whites, and a mixed tasting. I had some of theirs of course but I stuck to my usual "reds". I really enjoyed the barbera, and their sweeter wine , the rendezvous. I didn't care for their Tempranillo blend because it was too peppery. I liked one white wine (not a white wine person) and it was their Chardonnay. It was less acidic and more buttery. The service was kind and they were quick. Business wasn't too busy yet, so she was on it! The out door patio was spacious and it was a garage type feel. It will be perfect for the summer for sure . The bathroom is a separate stall outside by the way

I've been here a few times, most recently after the Giants' Fan Fest, and bought a bottle of rosé and got it signed by Dusty, who was chatting with guests and taking pictures with people after speaking at Fan Fest. The wine bottles themselves are cute, with baseball theme labels and corks. The two times I've been there were food stands and I loved the nachos I got from the vendor that was there Jan. 31. So good! It shares a space with a brewery, giving lots of options for drinkers. I'm looking forward to trying my rosé and will be back to try their sparkling rosé. Thanks!

What could be better than a dog friendly wine bar? Sure helps when the wine is good. I don't know why I don't come back here more often. Ok, I've just learned my sangria has lemon, peach, pineapple, and orange in addition to the dragon fruit that gives it such a bright pink color. Yummy. And that's the summer sangria! They'll have another in autumn with cloves in it. Sign me up. I like everything I've tasted here so far, stand outs being the Albariño, Rosé, and Barbera. They even have a Chardonnay I like, and if you know me you know I'm picky with those. As for the ambiance what more can I say other than dog-friendly and friendly friendly? Bright yellow walls because they're pretty. A $15 tasting fee will get you a generous 8 ounce pour of all 8 wines! Prices are reasonable. Happy Hour 2-4 Weekdays, $2 off all glasses. All wines are $7 by the glass on Mondays. $10-$12 is the regular cost per glass. Wine tasting kits? They have that. Charcuterie box? Yes, $15. Delivery? Yes. Wine Club? They've got that too. 2 bottles per month for $40, and 4 bottles for $70 plus perks. Noice. Don't skip the Moped blend. What grapes are used in the blend changes every couple months I'm told. "It's a casserole!" I love this place and I'll be back.

You can find Acheson here at the tap room, at the Saturday Farmers Market and I feel like I see them at so many events too! The wine is delicious- the Moped Red is my absolute favorite. I love doing the wine tastings to enjoy the most current offerings and the wine on tap and eco-friendly reusable bottles are such a nice touch. This wine is meant to be enjoyed, not hoarded and saved, so I find myself enjoying it right aay whenever we have some in the house. The team here and the owners are so nice. Loraine is the one who originally helped me and after meeting her I've been a loyal customer. If you're looking for gifts they offer tasting kits and they partner with other local businesses around the holidays for some fun options. They also have a wine club and they deliver too!

I have come here multiple times a year for the past 5 years at least to get the things that I…read morecannot get at other stores. I stopped here today and realized I have never reviewed them. The stuff here is usually very helpful and will direct me to what I need. They have a good selection of drinks as well as some pretty unique snacks. I have purchased everything from expensive whiskey to six packs of craft beer, to interesting snacks, to kosher wine, to gifts for people that I wouldn't have even considered until I saw them here. Today for example, I purchased some ginger beer and some pineapple ginger beer. No matter what you get they will insist on checking ID. That can be annoying, like it seemed unnecessary today as I am clearly over 21 and wasn't purchasing any alcoholic beverages. They are dog friendly and I do like that I can bring my dog into the store with me. They also have clean bathrooms for customers and I will continue to come here for odds and ends as long as they are open.
