    Had a great visit here. Owners were so nice and helpful. Met the neighbors who were also lovely. Liked the 2022 estate pinot noir and the 2019 Cabernet. Bought lots of wine and joined the club!

    This is such a cute winery with a beautiful backdrop. My work booked this place as a team bonding activity. We got a variety of rose, white and reds. Hard to say which one was my favorite as everything I tried was so good! The rose and pinot was a big hit with our group. We also ordered some yummy cheese plates. The owners are so sweet, friendly and unpretentious. Chris, one of the owner, gave us a tour of the facility and even took the kids on a tractor ride at their request. There were plenty of parking available and clean bathroom facility.

    I found this winery after going apple picking nearby. We did our tasting outside which included a light rosé, a Chardonnay, two Pinot noirs and one Cab. I took home a bottle each of the whites. My favorite was the Chardonnay. Loved the view while sipping on some wine. Cheers!

    Found this winery by doing a search for Watsonville wineries. They have boards along the road to guide you to their tasting room. Intimate tasting room - Chris, the winemaker was there and it was so fun to talk to him and learn about their wines. Definitely going back!

    Delicious wines! It was a great location, near some golfing we did. We even got to meet the maker of the wines and hear his history in wine making.

    Our favorite cabernet and rose chocolate.

    Anatum Winery is by far one of our favorite places ever. It's so relaxing sitting outside. Chris the winemaker and owner and his wife and baby are out walking around and serving you wine. We even got a nice chocolate with rose petals from them. The wines delicious and sitting right by the vineyard, can't be beat. I highly recommend this place you will enjoy it as much as we did I'm sure.

    Delightful local little winery just NE of Watsonville in the foothills of Mount Madonna. We visited with our mother on Mother's Day. The owners, husband and wife, Chris and Aerin were very friendly and Chris gave info and answered questions on his winemaking process and science behind it and the interesting name Anatum comes from Falcons raised by his father to protect the crops. While we had tastings of their young wines. We took food - home made gourmet tacos as a picnic after calling them and enjoyed a bottle of their Cabernet outside their barn overlooking the vineyard, on patio tables and chairs in the sun - Chris even offered plates and a heater. There is lower barrel seating and table too. It was a perfect day and setting and recommend to all.

    If they are still open there is no signage. I was expecting a small place. Very disappointed.

    Storrs Winery & Vineyards - Very pretty building and decor.

    They have a tasting room at the Old Sash Mill, but I went to a tasting at the estate in Aptos,…read morewhich is open Fri-Su noon-5. It's very pleasant to sip wine on the patio. They also have a bocce ball court. Two wines stood out: 5/5: The 2024 Santa Cruz Mountains Chardonnay; it's rubust, sparkly, with tropical notes. 4/5: The 2024 Monterey Sauvignon blanc: Fruity instead of grassy.

    **Overall 3.5 stars**…read more The wine tasted excellent! In fact, all the flavors were complex and delicious that my friends joined their wine club! The winery is situated on a hill. The road to get up the hill is very narrow that we almost missed it bec it looked like a driveway. Once we got past the trees to an opening, it was like orchestral music started playing when we saw the gorgeous Storrs building! The cement structure was so sleek and modern, yet it was in the middle of this farmhouse kind of area... it was a little shocking, in a good way. I feel bad taking off stars because I actually loved the wine at Storrs, but for the cost of the wine tasting per person, I was astonished at how TINY the pours were. We are talking the tiniest sip. You don't even have enough to swish it in your mouth to get a good sense of the wine on your palette. We thought we were being "punked", except every pour was this miniscule. There is also a strict no outside food policy here, yet they don't sell food. This is a big downside for me because I find drinking wine a great opportunity to sit back and relax with friends, and that includes munching on some food! Counter space was very cramped in the tasting room, and no one greeted us or acknowledged that we entered the building even. We just walked around for awhile until we found a tiny corner to insert ourselves. The set up isn't ideal for when there are multiple groups inside. There are tables in an outdoor patio and one long table indoors, but with the tasting pours being half a sip, you really don't need to sit down. So this is a big downside for me. The wine is delicious, so I think it's worth tasting and buying some wine here. My tip is to go on an off day so you can get better customer service and maybe get more than a 0.00001 ounce pour. Haha.

    Storrs Winery & Vineyards - This is the size of each pour!  Barely enough for a sip.

    A Great Spot for Pizza, Less So for Wine…read more We came here for a birthday party. The place is nice, and the staff is more than friendly. One heads-up: you can't bring your own drinks, not even water, since they want you to buy theirs. That would be fair if they offered a full selection, but they don't carry sparkling water, which we're big fans of. They serve pizza on weekends, and I have to give a shout-out here: the pizza was great! Crispy crust, good cheese, and a nice hint of garlic. Now for what could be better. At a winery, you'd expect some good wines. Sadly, not here. The white selection was limited to Pinot Grigio. It was a bit watery but pretty good, and unfortunately they ran out of it. This year's Rosé has the sweetness of unfermented grape juice. It's so heavy you can barely drink it without diluting it with water. The red, Cask 140, is the most expensive on the list. I don't think I've ever tasted such a dense red. If you're hoping for nuanced flavors, you won't find them here. Everything is overpowered by prune, and it's very tannic. So of the three wines we tried, two I'd never order again, and the one decent option ran out. Honestly, this place feels more like Fortino Pizzeria than Fortino Winery.
