Menu as of August 2025. Oysters are from Morro Bay and delicious!
Foodie B.

Really enjoyed our experience here and of course the wines! Matt guided us through our experience telling us about the winemaker, the labels, the wines and the vineyards. We love to learn about the wineries we visit! He even let us try their 2005 Pinot Noir which was killer for a 20 year old wine!! Loved the flight and PetNat as well as their carbonic Pinot. Super dog friendly patio and highly suggest the oysters and bread (the butter is locally made as well as the bread and olive oil!). Will certainly be back as they have fun approach to wines and blends!

An absolutely wonderful wine tasting. They have a cute little tasting room to enjoy your wine. Loved all their wines they had to offer - the Syrah and the NV Eclipse were our favorites, and we took home a bottle of each. Evan was super friendly and knowledgeable during our tasting. They also offer a small food menu, and the Shuck Shack Oysters are the best delicious addition to your wine tastings. Overall, a very enjoyable time wine tasting. Highly recommend, and we are looking forward to coming back.

Caviar
Rachel G.

Excellent wine, friendly staff, unique food options, and nice atmosphere! Wine and u-shuck is such a fun experience, and the caviar board was great! We really enjoyed the wines that we tried, and the staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. There is indoor/outdoor seating and a variety of menu options to choose from. I love how this place feels luxurious yet casual at the same time. The oysters, caviar, and tin fish make it so unique, and I love that everything is locally sourced! I will definitely be back :)

Charcuterie board

Always love tasting the wines here... and the delicious charcuterie board. The tasting room manager, Evan, really worked at our speed of eating and drinking. Really loved the salami and the various cheeses.

Wine tasting by the beach? Twist my arm like seriously...twist it. The wines were so soft with subtle hints of spice, fruit, and different levels of finish. My favorite was Syrah that I ended up buying a bottle of. I would definitely stop here when visiting Avila Beach, you won't regret it.

Cozy little wine tasting by the beach. We tried the flight and it was pretty good. The black label wines were really good. I'd recommend the black labels than the flight. Very clean and intimate.

We stopped by at this place because of the FRESH OYSTERS outside the restaurant. I brought my dog with me and we were allowed to stay outdoors with him. The wine was delicious! Paired well with the oysters. We did come about an hour before closing so we were the only ones. Service was great! Highly recommend :)

Great place for decent priced wine tasting and cheese board. Evan provided a wonderful tasting experience! Patio has nice art work!

He explained the vineyards/wine-making processes connected to each of the 6 wines we tasted, which were a couple of Rieslings (Mike's specialty) and a Pinot Noir at the end. The tasting was accompanied by a small charcuterie spread, which was an appreciated gesture. The wines featured diverse palates and mouthfeels, and we bought bottles of our two favorite wines (both Rieslings, one from Wirz Vineyard and one called La Estancia) at the end of the experience. Mike really was a gracious and knowledgeable host, we appreciated his passion for his craft that he spearheaded in 2002. Overall, this was a really unique and insightful experience that elevated our Christmas season getaway!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this winery. If you love small, non-touristy,…read morefamily-owned wineries, this is 1000% for you. My husband and I never plan ahead when it comes to visiting tasting rooms. We called on the day-of to check their availability, and the owner Mike was more than accommodating. The setting was tucked away and lovely, and the wine was phenomenal. They specialize in riesling but their pinot was also so delicious that we had to buy several bottles. The tasting itself was very relaxed and came with yummy treats including his wife's homemade tumeric bread. We had a great time and left feeling like we'd just hit the jackpot on unique experiences. Will definitely visit again! *Bonus- there were cats to pet. :)

I was like wth she was acting all kinds of strange , and became belligerent towards us and then demanded us to leave and the worst part is she wasn't even Pouring us the wine from the tasting list! will never recommend anyone to visit this place! Seriously was so bad that pismo police had to be called. Absolute worst ever!

From the moment you walk in, the vibe is warm, welcoming, and effortlessly cool -- the kind of place that makes you want to stay longer than planned. The wine selection is incredible, thoughtfully curated, and every recommendation felt spot-on. You can tell there's real passion behind what they do here. The staff makes you feel like family, not tourists. Genuine, knowledgeable, and fun -- the kind of service that turns a great wine bar into an unforgettable one. We laughed, we learned, we sipped some truly amazing wine, and honestly didn't want to leave. If you're anywhere near Pismo Beach and don't stop at Cali Love Wine, you're doing it wrong. This place isn't just a wine bar -- it's an experience, a memory, and a reason we'll be coming back.

There's an outside, the…read moremain tasting area and if you're doing the premium tasting they have a back area with more comfortable seating. The service was great and the wines were delicious! I think what makes this place special is that there's a story behind each bottle of wine and unique label by an artist to go with the story. It was hard to choose between the wines we liked and the art on the bottles lol. But they did say you can have any art label put on the bottle you wanted, but to is the story wouldn't match. In the end we got wines we liked and the art we wanted. Definitely coming back!

The views are beautiful, and depending on where you're seated, you can either enjoy the harbor scenery or spend some time people-watching. The artwork on the wine labels is stunning and adds a unique touch to the experience. I also appreciated the stories behind the wine names, the focus on small-batch production, and especially the charity bottle program. It's clear that a lot of thought and passion go into the brand. As for the wines themselves, they just weren't a fit for my palate, particularly at the price point. I recognize that wine preferences are highly personal, and there were others around the tasting room who seemed to enjoy them much more than I did. I also felt that the tasting experience could have been more engaging. Our server was pleasant not the most engaging, we felt like we were bothering her. Overall, I appreciated the creativity, mission, and atmosphere, even though the wines and tasting experience didn't quite resonate with me.
