Review for Above the Rush. Great vibes and wine. Best experience, service, and wine selection in Murphy Area. I'm a Bourbon & Rum drinker and there were some really cool wines that compliment. The server and staff were friendly and had great conversations with them. read more

This was my favorite winery in Murphy! They have a sister winery closer to Angel camps. It's called Above The Rush and that one offers bites with wine pairing, tasting fee is still waived with bottle. The bites were delicious really brought out the tastes of their wine! read more

We have visited the small tasting room on Main street a couple times and enjoyed the Malbec and Evolution. The servers have been nice its one of my favorite places to taste in town. Decided to visit their winery Above the Rush down the road as they serve those wines and Aloria. I wasnt a fan of some of he Above the Rush labels but we found a couple more Alorias we liked and bought a few bottles. Their facility could use some improvement like a better patio area. The tasting room is very small and gets very loud when there are a few groups in there. The young servers were very friendly and we enjoyed chatting with them. It was a good visit but we will probably stick with going to the Main street tasting room in the future we liked that venue better. read more

My favorite winery in Murphys! They not only have amazing wine but also offer estate olive oil. The family and staff are always hospitable and make us feel welcome. read more

I absolutely love Aloria Vineyards. From their tasting room in downtown Murphys, their absolutely stunning vineyards, and their new tasting room (Above the Rush) - so much thought, care, service, and craftsmanship has been put into every detail. Rob, Sheri, Ryan, and the entire crew are knowledgeable and passionate about their products. Whether your a novice or wine connoisseur, you will fit right in. The flights and bites at Above the Rush are next level. They help you to explore the wine tasting in a whole new way. I highly recommend it. My favorite is their sparkling Syrah (Shirazzy) which is beautiful and unique as a sparkling red. It won awards along with their Tempranillo, Alborino and other unique varietals they offer. It's a small, family owned winery that truly cares about everyone who walks in their doors. Their wine club events are outstanding. Please visit them on your next trip to Murphys or go on their website to get wine. You won't regret it! read more

What a great choice of wines!! There is a wine for everyone. Joined the wine club due to their amazing wines. Have not been disappointed once in the choices. On top of that the staff is excellent, kind and treat you as family. The details they provide about the wines is top notch along with the cozy atmosphere in the tasting room. read more

LOVED the wines and Veronica is amazing. So knowledgable. Met the owners and the wine maker and they are all so nice. I highly recommend!

Veronica is awesome. Very knowledgeable. If you love MALBEC ( like I do ) this is the place to stop. I'm the heart of Main Street on #murphys Also, be sure to stop at #abovetherushwinery Sister winery to Aloria but just as tasty read more

I tasted here over Thanksgiving break and I sure did have not only a great tasting but an amazing wonderful time in the tasting room. That concrete bar is so beautiful and check out the Double Gold win on the Malbec, from the San Francisco Chronicle. I will be coming back here every time I visit Murphys. Thanks for a great time and hoping to see you in Half Moon Bay, CA, when you have time to visit. read more

Had some friends in from out of town and did a bunch of fun things. The one thing they mentioned over and over again was the wonderful wine tasting at Above the Rush (sister to Aloria). They loved the friendly atmosphere, delicious wines, yummy bites that went with the wines, and the terrific service from Veronica. Will definitely bring guests here again! read more

I have owed Aloria a GLOWING review for years now. I've been a wine club member since 2019 and have loved every minute of it. Their tasting room is in a spot on Main Street that I always somehow glossed over before, but now this is almost always our first stop of the day. Great wines, great people (shoutout Veronica and Shalane), and super welcoming, easygoing vibes. Their sister tasting room at Above The Rush is also 100% worth a stop for some really good small-bites pairings. If you're checking out Murphy's and this place isn't on your list, do yourself a favor and add it. I usually go with a group of friends and we all have various wine club memberships in and around Murphy's, but this is the one we argue over because no one wants to share. 3 of us have Aloria/ATR memberships now :) read more

Please, PLEASE stop in here for wine tasting. One of the best wines on the strip and best experiences with the Customer Service of any tasting room we've been to in Murphy's. The wine is exceptional. Due to COVID, this time we didn't get to do the tastings of the Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar-one of my favorite touches that sets them apart from any winery downtown. Needless to say we left with a mixed case of wine because we couldn't just choose one! Veronica and the Owner were so accommodating, insightful, and friendly. Thank you read more

First time at the downtown tasting room and we really enjoyed the wines and the experience. Dave, the older gentleman who served us was delightful. We will surely return next time we are in the area and will also try their sister winery Above the Rush. read more

We visited Above the Rush winery (sister winery) Veronica was AMAZING!!!! Want to go back again.

These wines are amazing!! Absolutely delicious and complex wines. Winery owner gave us our tasting, and he was very knowledgeable and friendly. We went during COVID so our tasting was held at their vineyard under an oak tree, and honestly wouldn't have it any other way! What a relaxing wonderful afternoon. We also received beautiful wine glasses with our tasting. Also, these wines were top 2 of all the wines we tasted during our time in Murphy's. Would definitely come back!! read more

The wine is absolutely the most flavorful wine I have tasted in a very long time. They are yummy. The service was very good. Small but very quant. I sat next to the electric fire stove. However, the wine " Melbeck" was awesome. read more

My girlfriend and I booked a reservation here during Covid. Due to their tasting room not being allowed open in Murphy. We got to go directly to their vineyard where they had a nice tasting setup under a big oak tree. The vineyard was hard to find and there was no instruction on their confirmation email about the private gate and thegate code that you have to go through on the way there. That being said, the tasting was great! Their wines are fantastic. Some are easy sipping and other are very complex. Out of all the wineries we visited that day this had to be one or the top places in Murphy based on quality of wine. The owner was an engineer for 30 years in the bay area. I say that because his sales skills were a little awkward and seemed a little desperate for us to buy wine or souvenirs. That being said, the wine speaks for itself and I'm cheering them on to be very successful in the wine business. read more

Always a good time at Aloria! Veronica was both professional and friendly and beyond easy to talk to! She was patient enough to let us last minute folks in for a tasting and was patient with our multitude of questions. Delicious wines, the Barbera being our favorite, and such a cute stop! Can't wait to come back! Thank you for the laughs, Veronica! read more

I signed up to be a wine club member at the Taste of Calaveras, and I cannot recommend them more! Not only are their wines exceptional but they have this way about them, you feel like old family friends when you interact with their employees. Went into their tasting room a few weeks later and left with a few bottles and no regrets. They employ top notch wine tenders and pump out a great product. read more

Nice size tasting room. Really good wines. Attendant seemed overwhelmed by servicing three small parties.

Aloria is one of the best wineries in the strip! Friendly staff and cute atmosphere. The wine rocks too!

Delicious wine, and friendly staff! Don't miss stopping by this winery (located near Aria Bakery).

Favorite winery of the day on our girls trip! Stopped in and had the place to ourselves. The staff was very friendly and made us feel welcome and even had fun joking with us. They have a lot of white and a lot of red wines to try. There is also a self serve balsamic tasting bar. Between the 5 of us we all found more than one wine we loved and couldn't pass up the sale they were having on a case of wine... we all went in on it. They even let us leave it there and personally delivered it to us at our shuttle stop so we didn't have to carry it. Talk about customer service at it's best!! I will be back! read more

Loved all the wines per usual. Beyond that, you can tell the owners and servers care deeply about the comfort and experience of their customers. Beautiful tasting room with balsamic tastings that adds an even nicer touch to an already exceptional tasting experience. Also, shout out to my girl Shalane! She's sure to treat you well every time you arrive to taste. read more

Feeling at home! That's how we feel every time we are going to Aloria to taste wine in the charming town of Murphy. Not only are their wines fantastic, you will enjoy a relaxed environment with an absolutely loving staff who will make you feel special. There's no rush, just sit back and enjoy their fantastic lineup of whites, reds and bubblies. Not to forget the vinegars and olive oils they have available in their tasting room. We fell in love with Aloria and are now proud club members sharing their journey and love for wines! read more
