If you are going for the overall experience I'd say by pass this one and save your time. It's just not the wine tasting experience you'd expect for the area. As an example the only food option they have with wine tasting are bags of ancient pretzels that in and of themselves were rancid. Service was ok but we were the only people there. The pours for wine tasting were half that of others in the area. Ambiance was poor. Sitting outside in the direct sun on a wire spool table facing an old derelict building left a lot to be desired. Not recommended. See others I'd highly recommend instead.

I planned a surprise 7th wedding anniversary for my wife by going to Palisade/Grand Junction…read more Really didn't have a lot planned for the weekend, but my wife had been wanted to got back here since here bachelorette celebration 7 years earlier, so I thought it would be fun. We knew there were plenty of wineries, but since my wife like trying new things and I didn't know where she had gone in the past, I had her pick the place to go when we got in and she 'randomly' selected this one. We couldn't have been happier. They have plenty of places to sit outside, but we went to the upstairs patio that overlooks the vineyard. It was a great choice. It's very pleasant, the view is beautiful, it's covered (so you're not baking in the sun), and when the breeze rolls through, it's perfect. We were a little taken aback that we had to go "all the way" downstairs when we wanted more wine, but then realized that it's the 'winery atmosphere' (remember - first day in to Palisade). We absolutely loved sitting on the patio and having a couple glasses of wine. We spent the next day visiting a few other wineries, but after two others, we decided to go back to Carboy. Sat on the upstairs patio again and listened to the live music (with a couple glasses of wine). It was amazing. Carboy has an assorted selection of food that can be ordered. We didn't order any, but it looked amazing and the people around us that did order things seemed happy with it. The only thing that we commented on was that when there's live music, we would have loved to have had the option of a food truck. If that had been the case, we both agreed that we probably would have stayed and had dinner there (as it was, we decided to leave and get dinner from a restaurant). If you're in Palisade (and are visiting wineries), I highly recommend Carboy. Personally, I'd skip the tasting 'flight' and go straight for a glass of wine, but that's mostly because the tasting varies from white to red (and I'm not a big fan of whites).

Beautiful patio and great drinks!! Service is top tear. Id recommend this place to anyone.read more

I was traveling with my husband, his brother and our sister-in-law for a weekend getaway…read more This was our first wine stop of the trip. Late afternoon, the temperature was in the 90s and a slushie sounded good. My sis-in-law and I got the slushies. The boys both got tastings. We thought the slushies were tasty, I would get that again. The boys were not as enthusiastic about their tasting. Everything was okay, but not great. The staff is really welcoming and it is a great space. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating, being on the east side of the building, and covered has nice shade from afternoon heat. The parking lot is good sized. They had a person doing balloon animals when we arrived which I thought was an interesting choice.

They do have outdoor seating as well as indoor seating. Vibe is that of a typical, nicely and modernly decorated Mexican restaurant. Interestingly, they do serve shots on a wood platter (similar to that of a cortado with sparkling water palette cleanser), and half shots as well that seemed popular to the locals. The man that told us to visit here actually told of us this, and we saw it in action. We had to tap out after a day of wine tasting. Our party of 4 ordered the Oaxacan, Carne Asada, Bomb Ass Fish Taco, and Pork Carnitas. I would rank them in that order too from best to least best (none were bad, but the pork carnita felt a little dry as the overall consensus of the table). The Poblano fries were amazing. They tasted truly fresh and right off the fryer. It comes with 5. Loved the aioli and salsa too. Lastly, they had a house made pineapple habanero hot sauce that was AMAZING! Service was kind, attentive, and no complaints.
