    Off Vineyard Road a bit.  There are other tasting rooms nearby.

    The website gives one the impression that the owners are still doing OJT (on the job training). The taste of their wines give the impression that the owners are still doing OJT. The wines are worth a try. The chocolate collection for sampling is very nice. I would not suggest mixing it with the tasting, but maybe after the tasting. We bought 2010 Basque Blend because it was the best balanced of their wines, but they need to keep practicing.

    I visited Changala for the first time on Valentine's weekend per the recommendation of a friend - great time, great wine! Cute little place with winery dogs, bocce ball, and corn hole. There was a larger party there at the same time but there are different areas to hang around so it wasn't an issue. Barbara was great- engaging, knowledgable, and overall made the visit one to remember! Left with a bottle in hand.

    Great wine, beautiful scenery, and fantastic service. My fiancé and I had a great experience wine tasting at Changala Winery. Everyone was very friendly, and welcoming. The outdoor setting is absolutely beautiful. They have wooden chairs, benches, and wine barrels turned into fire pits; all surrounded by pretty string lights and. The environment felt very casual and relaxed, which I liked. This is definitely a great place for getting together with a group of any size to relax and unwind with some wine. I appreciate how friendly and attentive the Changala family was, we can't wait to be back.

    I cannot speak highly enough...Outstanding!

    Great red wine blends. Best from the area. Their zinfandel are also great. Join the wine club.

It was peaceful, beautiful, and the kind of place where you immediately want to linger for a few extra hours. The wines were excellent across the board, starting with the rosé welcome pour, and I completely fell in love with Sawbones. The hospitality is what really sets Jada apart. I brought my dog, and not only was she welcome, she was absolutely doted on by the staff. By the end of the tasting, I think she was considering staying behind! Michelle was phenomenal--warm, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable. She shared the story of the winery and the wines in a way that made the experience feel personal and special. We never felt rushed and were so well taken care of from beginning to end. I can't recommend Jada enough and already can't wait for my next visit.

When we were planning this trip months ago, I discovered Jada was celebrating their 25th Anniversary with a Wine Dinner. What a wonderful way to enjoy wines, paired with amazing dishes, and an evening with beautiful surroundings! We met the original family and the new family owners of Jada along with staff members. Everyone was very friendly! The GM Josh (son from the OG family), Winemakers, and staff have stayed on thru the transition. In addition, the new owners have acquired another winery close by and plan to open a restaurant and sister the two wineries! Double the tastes? We were very fortunate to be offered many library wines and older vintages. SawBones (Syrah-Cab Blend) remains my personal favorite but many of their wines are just too good not to bring home for future enjoyment. Their blends are amazing along with their WSC Cabernet (98 points). We really liked the Viognier and bought several bottles, and we rarely buy whites! We enjoyed the Olive Oil and brought some home as well! Thank you Jada for a wonderful evening!

The place is very busy. We opted for a wine tasting with lunch. They offered 5 wines and proper tasting pours. When we were seated, water was quickly served and we ordered their House-made Sourdough Focaccia which was served with lavender butter and lavender salt. That was very tasty - the lavender butter and salt worked well with the bread. My wife ordered the Duck Confit and I ordered the Bucatini Pasta which featured Mighty Cap Mushrooms. The sauce was very rich and flavorful. The pasta was cooked properly, and the mushrooms were just so good. The Duck Confit was similar - the duck leg was cooked properly, and worked great with the Heirloom tomatos and plum, all of which sat on a wild rice salad. You can skip the wine tasting and order drinks or wine off the menu if you want. Take a moment to walk around the grounds, look up at the ceiling work. They have have a shop with some neat winery stuff. Staff and service were excellent, and the menu and the food were outstanding!

They do not offer complimentary bread service. Bread is on the menu - House made sourdough focaccia with lavender butter. It was so good, totally worth the price. Slight crisp on the outside, spongy interior, but chewy from the sourdough gluten. Hint of sweet in the background. Butter is light and aromatic. This amazing dish is just the bread. Roasted Chicken was tender with a light sauce. Pasta with mushroom sounds simple but it was yummy and perfect. For wine tasting, they offered a complimentary welcome taste of Pino Rose, light and refreshing. The tasting had 4 wines, my favorite was the 2022 Reserve Chardonnay. It was buttery and smooth. The building, scenery of the vineyard hills, and the flower garden were all beautiful.

We were told at the event that they take walk-ins, but the website emphasized reservations, so we made one just to be safe. We were greeted in the driveway by the winery dogs, a very welcoming sight! They were great leaders to the tasting room, though they stayed outside for the duration of our visit. We each did the regular flight, which was 1 white and 4 reds during our visit. We did also get an off menu taste. Our favorite from the flight was the whole cluster grenache, we ended up taking a bottle of that one home. We were helped by Erica, she was super fun to chat with and very knowledgeable about the wines. We didn't know this when booking, but the tasting flight came with a snack plate! It had bread, cheese, nuts, some dips, and olives, such a fun surprise. The property and tasting room were beautiful!

This winery is dog-friendly and has 3 friendly dogs that roam around the property. The tasting room had elegant decor with a fireplace, beautiful blue accents, and a calm ambiance. However, we chose to sit outside and the staff members quickly moved our table into the shade. They also brought out a plate of snacks to go with our wine tasting, which was such a nice touch! This included freshly baked sourdough, manchego cheese, apple butter, nuts, and olives. I can't remember which wines were my favorite (this was our second tasting of the day), but I do remember being very impressed with the lineup. Overall, Willow Creek Wine was a gem!

Sadly it was pretty chilly when we were visiting so sitting outside wasn't in the cards for us, but it was still lovely to enjoy as we checked in. We didn't have a reservation, but they were able to seat us inside the tasting room, which was lucky because they filled up very quickly after we got there. Two of us ended up sharing the classic tasting, it came with 5 wines, and we got an extra bonus pour of another wine they had open. The tasting had 1 white and 4 reds when we were in. We were helped by Emily, she was great to chat with and knew a ton about the wine, winery, and Paso. My favorite thing about the tasting was that they had a section on the menu that talked about the 2023 vintage (all but one wine we tried were from 2023) and how it differed from 2022. It was great education and information on why the wine was the way it was that year. We didn't love any of the wines enough to take them home with us, but we did find that the 23's everywhere weren't our favorites, we'll have to come back once they have a new vintage!

We also can bring a party of 6 for our tastings. Both the white and red wines are amazing. Even though Anthony (winemaker) now has his new winery (Royal Nonesuch Farms which is also incredible) he still is very involved here. The property is absolutely amazing. On our last visit, we had the pleasure of being served by Tony for the first time. Tony is great with entertaining stories and recommendations for food pairing. He even introduced us to a website with delicious Italian recipes. The wine is fairly priced considering the high quality.
