The wines are spectacular. I had in the tasting Chardonnay, rose, merlot, Syrah, and beyond red. You will not be disappointed. We also got the charcuterie cup which was delicious.

We fell in love with this place. We read the reviews and thought we'd give it a chance. The tasting room has so much charm. The wine steward was lovely. Everyone wine we tried was really enjoyable. It's got a great mix. If you love a frozen wine slush on a hot day, this place is great. If you like wines with more body and character, this place is for you too. It was a very pleasant surprise. Wonderful service and wines. They didn't rush us and it was nice for our son to get to play some of the games. Will definitely come back!

Stumble on this winery on the way back to San Diego. Love this place and ambience especially my slushee wine.

A hidden gem. Just go, you won't be disappointed. Wine that a Napa snob would approve of, and ambiance and aesthetic missing from other Ramona wineries. Worth the 5 minute detour from Main Street.

One of the best Chardonnay's I've had, and the Zin is a game changer. This includes Paso and Santa Ynez regions. The Owner is extremely knowledgeable and the venue is killer; highly recommend checking them out if you're in the area.

Tried Vina Ramona for the first time today after driving by multiple times. Wines were delicious, and the service was even better!!!

I went to the new tasting room on Vista Vicente and loved it. Not only is the wine delicious but the vibes are immaculate. A victorian chic room which is picture perfect and a great spot to sit with friends and enjoy good conversations and good wine.

This place was really rustic and intimate. We celebrated a Birthday on a Saturday night and Ben went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our evening. I did the tasting since I never know what to order. The owner was very helpful and informative about the wines. It truly was a great experience for someone who isn't a regular wine drinker. The rest of our group who drink wine often loved the wine selection, it seemed like there was something for everyone. I would highly recommend this place for gathering, girls night out, birthdays, date nights or just a glass of wine after a busy day!

I came here and am not from the area -- I was sooo impressed with the ambiance, service and most of all the flight of wine. I have been to wineries in Napa, Temecula, and beyond but genuinely loved this spot!!

Amazing ambiance and the Merlot was delish. A surprisingly delightful afternoon in Ramona!

Super fun corn hole game with slushie! A must? Absolutely!

We came to Ramona for a Sunday drive and we enjoy the views from this area so much. This winery is not one of the typical overly decorated and somewhat pretentious places. It's charming in its simplicity (see the photo of the converted shipping van which doubles as the tasting room). It seems like the money is being spent on the grapes and machinery/harvest which pays off in the flavor of the wine. We tried the sampler and took home a bottle of the Ramona Red which was my favorite. Our server, Cato was helpful and let us sit outside and enjoy the scenery as long as we wanted which we appreciated because the views are stunning. Come, relax and enjoy. read more

Need a break from city life? Now this wine tasting room is undoubtedly one of the most peaceful, classy and memorable spots! My partner and I came for our anniversary and the server, Cato, made us feel like family. She celebrated our time together by giving us great recommendations and attentive service. The merlot had delicious notes of honeysuckle, and the chardonnay slushee is a MUST try. The entire place maintains a lovely summer breeze and is shaded. Just discovered a new oasis.... And I'll be back! read more

Wow front start to finish, from vista to detail, this is a special place. Curated and loving and all the while executed at a level you should pay way more for. I have never had an oaked chardonnay from California I liked but the minerality and acid cut through it like a well balanced Burgundy. Also tried the rose which was almost better, lean and clean with plenty of punch. The staff were absolutely wonderful, clearly well informed, passionate about their fare, and just all around warm and welcoming. In a world of Instagram and trends, it's so nice to find genuine places like this. Hidden gem for sure!!! read more

I can't believe I didn't know about this place until recently. What an adorable winery in downtown Ramona that's both rustic and chic, and also very welcoming. This would be a fantastic place to kick off a date night or just lounge during cruise night, or even admire the lights on main street around the holidays. It's such a different vibe from the sprawling acres and outdoors of other local wineries, but in a totally awesome way! Definitely stop in here if you are nearby. You can't go wrong with this place :) read more

1st time visiting. They moved here to their new tasting room. It's a cute tasting room located off Old Julian Hwy. The entrance needs a good sign. Once you find it, there's a very narrow road and plenty of parking on your right. Needs to be cleaned out of the weeds and grass needs mowing. Other than that, I think this tasting room has potential. They usually set out nice looking umbrellas and once you're there, you feel welcome. Certainly Cato makes it her highest priority to provide you with enough information about the wines and the grapes. The tasting room is very quaint with pleasant music playing in the background to help enjoy your wine tasting experience. They serve Rose, Chardonnay, Merlot, Cab and Petite Syrah. My faves were their Chardonnay and their Petite Syrah. Chardonnay is fruity and crisp. The Petite Syrah is bold and nice for a full body wine. They charge $15 for their tasting which I think is a bargain for the # of wines they let you taste. Their prices are a little high ($30-$45) but in the end you'll make up your own opinion. All in all, I think I'll be back. read more

They even have a cave, however it's not open to the public (at least as of our last visit). WINES: Andy (owner/winemaker) poured for us and provides good service and nice insight on his wines and vineyard. One tasting fee is waived with one bottle purchase, as Andy's motto is "We want to sell wines, not tastings". Chuparosa offers mostly Italian, French, and some Spanish varietals (Albariño, Grenache Gris, Mourvèdre/Grenache Rosè, Sangiovese, Cab Franc, and Zinfandel) and in my opinion they're all well-made, elegant wines, some of the best in the region. Chuparosa is a "must visit" winery when in the Ramona wine country.

Milagro Farm is just that, a working farm with many aspects, including the winery. The tasting room, patio, and barrel room facilities have a rustic vibe, but are very nice. The staff was friendly and provides a lot of information on the various wines they offer. WINES: We shared a tasting of 5 whites and 5 reds. They have a large selection of varietals, including a Sparkling, Sauv Blanc, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Barbera, Cab Sauv, Petite Sirah, and some blends. The wines are okay, not necessarily matching my palate, but others seem to really enjoy them. I always say that with wine, what I like/dislike may differ from your palate, so I suggest that you try them out yourselves. Overall, a relaxing, enjoyable time and location.

While visiting my son during Thanksgiving , we stopped in to this tasting room. What a pleasant surprise! I have had the pleasure to visit a number of the tasting rooms in the Ramona Valley over the past several years and Vina Ramona is a new favorite. The site is beautiful with gorgeous views across the valley and Adirondack chairs set out to enjoy those views. The tasting room itself is housed in an antique truck trailer with an extremely charming and cozy interior artfully decorated with a mix of antiques and interesting pieces. Now to the wine. We tasted a wonderful red blend that was delicious. The combination of location, decor, friendly service, and the wine makes this a place I recommend and will visit again the next time I am in Ramona. read more

It's nice to have another tasting room in Ramona! Really good wines served in nice crystal glasses. I can't tell you how many times I've done a tasting in cheap wine glasses and wonder why anyone trying to sell their wines wouldn't use a proper wine glass. These Owners get it and they are very friendly and informative. Do yourself a favor and check it out. Right now they are only open on Saturdays but hopefully they will be open more days soon. I agree with the other reviewer, their Pinot Noit is really good! read more

What a great night! We popped in to Vina Ramona on the tree lighting night and didn't know quite what to expect and were blown away! The service was incredible and the wine was excellent. Started with a tasting a couple glasses on wine and ended up buying a bottle. Highly recommend the Barbara and Chardonnay. The Pinot Noir was also great! We will definitely be back again! read more

We were so happy to find this gem in the heart of Main St. for the Annual Christmas Tree Lighting!! It was great to sip on some of the best wine and watch the parade with front row seats! We met one of the owners, Ben, who was very nice and welcoming. Great place to bring friends and catch up on life! read more

Awesome location. Had the Zinfandel and it was the perfect bottle for a cool, but not cold night watching the Classic Cars roll by after a day out on San Vincente Reservoir. Whether you get a bottle to go or sit and enjoy the environment, it's a must hit when in Ramona! Great staff too! read more
