A great place to go wine tasting in the Santa Ynez Valley. We've been wine club members here for a few years and have chosen to have our shipments set for pick-up rather than shipping just so we have an excuse to come up here every few months. It is an easy drive up from LA (about 2.5 hours) and can easily be done as a day trip or weekend away. We love to do the tasting and then bring a picnic to sit on the grass. You can also buy a bottle and they will provide glasses for you to take the wine with you for your picnic or they have tables/couches if you prefer that to sitting on the grass. The snacks for purchase are limited so be sure to bring some of your own.

For the wines, they’re all pretty darn solid. As to the tasting room itself, it’s great! What a good plan of attack for the day is, grab a picnic (or pick up some sliced cheese and meats here), get a bottle of wine and enjoy the grounds. This is a fantastic and inviting tasting room/winery that really invites you in and helps you relax.

We went to Ferrari-Carano Vineyards and Winery during our Valentine's Day getaway. It was recommended by another vineyard that we visited earlier when my husband mentioned that I would like to see a more grand-looking vineyard. It definitely impressed everyone of us when we got there. There were beautiful gardens right next to the parking lot. The fountains were very much the classic European charm. The tasting rooms were definitely the most up-scale ones that we had ever visited. Everywhere we turned reflected the elegant and sophisticated taste of the owners of the vineyard. The wine tasting came with delicate-looking and delicious desserts. The staff there were quite friendly and professional, too. Even though the tasting sessions seemed more expensive than the others, it was totally worth it. We had a blast there and will definitely return in the future.

Gorgeous vineyard in Drycreek Valley. Always worth a visit. Make sure to see the gardens!

Beautiful grounds and gardens. Wine is spectacular!

We went in for a tasting upstairs and the guy that was pouring our wines did an excellent job of explaining the wines and answering any questions we had about the process or ingredients. The gardens outside were really gorgeous and almost worth visiting just for that.

One of the nicest hosts we have encountered during a wine tasting. Dog friendly. Exceptional wines. Great cheese ^-^

Went on Saturday afternoon of Labor Day weekend. Manager was nice, other lady was abrasive. Wine was mediocre with a couple of bright spots (Zin and Tempranillo). Grounds were nice and peaceful, but not awe-inspiring.
