KID and PET FRIENDLY! Beautiful views and the Rosé was amazing. The staff was very welcoming and even offered the kids snacks. Would definitely recommend coming with the family.

Tasting room

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!!!

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 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.

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!

I checked this place out for the first time yesterday. It was a nice little spot. It kind of felt…read morethat we had the place all to ourselves as we were the only ones there when we first arrived. I believe he was the owner; but he was very hospitable. They have unique wines infused in whiskey barrels. I had their Chardonnay which had a slight taste of whiskey in it but I thought it was pretty good. I also tried their pepperoni and sausage flat bread which also was pretty tasty. We were greeted by "Whiskey" the cat and as we were told apparently he was a stray and greets everyone as they arrive which was cute. They have misters which helped a lot with the heat.

Called 20+ Vineyard and put my requirements and was chose Crystal hill as my choice, I am so glad I made that decision. Best wine, amazing scenery, very private, kid friendly, pet friendly most of all sweetest Staff you will ever find. This is the best winery of Ramona by far and exactly what we were looking for. The view is stunning and beautiful view, atmosphere is very relaxing. Wine choices we were excellent, Excellent wine, especially the whiskey barrel wines! Wine Choices: We initially ordered wine flights, double and singles an we choose the below bottles from there. 1. 2016 Stone Lake Merlot 2. 2016 Whiskey Stone Lake Merlot 3. 2019 Malbec Rose 4. 2017 Whiskey Rose They even have food; their flatbread is amazing too. The Staff and owners were very nice, as we were having good time Scott the owner took the kids, around 10 of them to a short hike and showed them around the property and vineyard, kids had good time while adults were drinking up. Meanwhile Kristy engaged the smaller kids. It was all fun and everyone had fun. Special kudos to the lovely bartenders. If you are looking for great wines, amazing views, comfortable atmosphere, great staff, kid friendly, pet friendly, this is the place. We are going back soon

Chuparosa is a true hidden gem. We almost hesitate to share this review because part of us wants to…read morekeep it all to ourselves. That said, the owner, Andy, was so gracious and welcoming that we genuinely want to see him succeed; it feels only right to spread the word. The experience was fantastic from start to finish. We left with two bottles of wine--despite usually preferring reds, we couldn't pass up both the Albarino and the Sangiovese. One tip: double-check your route on Google Maps before heading over. Just a heads-up--it's not the dirt road!

We been to Chuparosa several times over the past 5 years and have always enjoyed our experiences…read more The tasting room is situated on a hillside overlooking their vineyard. There's a small, but comfortable area inside by a stone fireplace, as well as a nice deck in front offering the wonderful views of the vineyards and surrounding hills. 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.

It has this warm, rustic, family‑owned charm -- the kind of place that feels like you're hanging out in someone's backyard rather than at a commercial winery. The owners were incredibly friendly and made us feel like longtime friends. The wine selection is on the smaller side, but that actually fits the vibe -- simple, honest, very them, and totally down‑to‑earth. I love that you can grab a glass and sit wherever you like. The back patio is beautiful: breezy, shaded, and surrounded by nature. Prices were great too. It was a warm day, and the owner recommended the rosé -- great choice. Light, refreshing, and perfect for the weather. Nothing overly fancy or grand here, and honestly that's what makes it special. A sweet, relaxed Julian spot with heart, history, and genuinely kind people.
