Beyond their size, small businesses are defined by their spirit. And at the helm are their intrepid founders—scrappy, ambitious, and resilient. They invent and build things despite uncertainty, because it’s what drives them. Their risks lead to innovation that moves the world forward. And we need them.
Beautiful view. The Wine consulate was super nice and knowledgeable on wines. White wines were perfect to try for the tasting package.
One of the better tastings I've experienced! We did 6 different wines for $15 and I enjoyed all of the wines (rarely happens for me). I would consider buying a bottle/glass of 4 out of 6 of them. Karen took care of us and was a perfect mix of helpful information and service when necessary without a ton of hovering. The atmosphere is wonderful, dog friendly location (if they are on a leash) with outdoor patio that has a killer view. Very chill spot, if I lived in this area this would be a regular spot for me.
This winery was such a pleasant surprise! We were on our way back from Julian and decided (very much) on a whim to veer off the road when we saw a sign for wine tasting. Didn't know what to expect, but glad we stopped - gorgeous views, beautiful tasting room with big windows, outdoor seating with shade, dog friendly, enjoyable wines, and friendly staff. We'll be back!
Lovely view greets one as entering. Beautiful tasting facility with main room that has high ceiling, outdoor patio with tables. Our server was quite knowledgeable and very professional. Tasting costs $2.50 per wine 🍷. Ok with this format except she poured just one ounce. That's not enough to really judge a wine's character. My favorite wine was the Super Tuscan blend, which exhibited blackberry notes with a nice spicy finish. Still, very expensive for the Ramona AVA. The Montepulciano is worth trying. Wine is serious business, but atmosphere is set up to entertain people. No music for atmosphere.
I have been to Ramona Ranch a number of times now and I can’t say enough about the place. I live in Virginia but used to live in California so I like to go back as often as I can. I discovered Ramona Ranch years ago and have enjoyed watching Micole and Teri grow their business and succeed on such a huge scale. On my last visit (early May) I visited the winery with my bf, son and his gf and we had a wonderful time. We tasted all the wines and were so impressed. We ordered a case of half Super Tuscan and half Multipulchiano. A few days after we returned home, our case was delivered. Amazing! We have twelve delicious bottles of wine to share with family and friends. Everyone is blown away with their wine. I can’t say enough about how amazing Teri and Mike are and how warm and welcoming they and their staff are and how much I love them, their warm welcoming winery and their amazing wine!
