Very great wine and excellent food with superb service and extremely clean and well kept grounds makes for a carefree evening with friends and loved ones. Always has a few new wines for us to try even though we go every weekend. We are yet to find anything wrong but have found everything right. My only fear is winter when it closes. Take care yall, Bobbi Livingston
Very cute winery with a beautiful surrounding. This is a really nice place to go to enjoy wine and eat and hang out with friends and sit on the patio. The view is very nice and it's very relaxing. When you go inside, you get to sample whatever wine you would like to try and then you can buy a bottle and grab a seat and stay for as long as you want. They have catered food outside that you can order and pick up and take to your table. They do not have a wait service so you are expected to keep your table clean and throw your garbage away, but it's a great concept and no one is rushing you to leave. We love dry wine and the Baco is our favorite. They also have great mulled wine at this time of year.
I was looking forward to a nice birthday celebration with my daughter and friends at Wooden Door Winery. I wasn't in the door for 2 minutes when the owner snapped at me twice. The first time was when I commented to my daughter that it smelled good inside, like grapes! The owner sarcastically said to me, "well it is a winery". Then he saw I was carrying balloons and as I was speaking to a long time friend who had approached me, he interrupted us to tell me that "Balloons aren't allowed in here!'. I was holding them down low so that they wouldn't bother anyone until we got to the outside tables. I was surprised to learn later that he was the owner. I assumed that he must have been an unhappy employee. The employees couldn't have been nicer. He should take note from them. I will go to Narcisi next time.
My wife and I and our "wine" friends have visited well over 100 wineries in 6 states. We often spend an afternoon at local wineries also. Our first visit to the Wooden Door MORE than met our expectations on so many levels. First and foremost, of course, is the wine selection and quality. They have wines for all tastes and all we sampled and purchased were unique, enjoyable, and very well made. Next is the service which we found to be top notch. The ownership was present and working quite hard to make sure everyone was being served and informed about their wines. Then comes the property, my goodness is it special. Spacious and comfortable inside, and really nice seating areas outdoors. Many table settings under roof on the patio, a few picnic tables under and near trees, a BBQ dining area near the full service grill when open. I hear their burgers are excellent. A lot of thought and care has been placed on landscaping the grounds and they are beautiful and very relaxing. The owners permit you to bring outside snacks for your visit but leave the big cooler and hibachi at home. How was our day? We had planned on a one hour stay while splitting a bottle between the four of us. We ended up enjoying 3 bottles over 3 hours of inspired relaxation. There is only one problem with this winery, it is 35 miles from my house, and the owners will not move it closer... These owners are doing everything right!
My wife and I recently took a tour of the Wooden Door Winery, and we were super impressed with the place. I am a amateur wine maker and so enjoyed this place! The owner shared his knowledge of wine making tips, and we got to see first hand the process into their hard working facility. Our entire group loved their wines! I will be bringing many friends back here!! Keep up the great work. Steve
We frequent the Wooden Door Winery often and have always had a wonderful time! They have a great variety of reds/whites sweets/drys. The atmosphere is very relaxing and beautiful. The owners and staff are very friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend trying it for your next evening out - you won't be disappointed. Their hours are Thursday 4-9 pm, and Friday/Saturday 3-9 pm.
The Wooden Door WInery is a very special place. Not only are the wines clean, pure, and excellent (no "wine headache" the next day!), the owners/vintners, Jeff and Krissy, have provided an idyllic oasis on a hilltop which evokes the feeling of being on vacation in some lovely European locale. Don't miss an opportunity to enjoy all that the Wooden Door has to offer! Best burgers anywhere made by Tommy! We suggest getting there early, as it can get crowded after 6.
This is a must see for any wine drinker. I am lucky to live so close, their wine is amazing and so is the scenery. You can also order a delicious burger too!
This little cozy place is one of my favorite places to be. Not only do the have some of the best wine I have every tasted, the staff is amazing. So friendly and great to talk to. You can feel the care that they feel for every customer to make them have the best experience.
I enjoyed the wine tasting. I also liked the snacks, but the food wasn't that good. I didn't like the fact that you had to walk over to an area to order and then go back to get the food. Sometimes it is too crowded to get a seat. I actually like Narcissi Winery better.
