Yep, I'm still a member here. I've been doing better about showing up at least once a month to enjoy a tasting with a friend or two. I joined the cheese club for about a year and a half but I was the only member I ended up canceling because I could just buy the cheese when I wanted it Carruth Solana Beach has fun events throughout the week. I know they're set days and the calendar but I like to be excited surprised every time I go so I never know what I'm getting into. There is trivia night which is free. I don't officially play, but I quietly play. They have food vendors coming in. All local usually pizza or cheese or something fun. The staff has changed over a bit over the years. Everybody is so friendly and makes it feel like a neighborhood hang out spot other than the wine that warm feeling is my favorite part about coming here. I imagine I'll be here for years more to come Cheers

Was smooth and the more you let it sit out, it rewarded you with more fruit forward. Was not sweet though. Was better with food but you could enjoy by itself. Since I previously placed this review, I visited this winery and my opinion changed. The wines I previously tasted don't do justice to their full menu of delicious wines. The winery charges $25/person to taste 6 wines but they waive fee if you buy at least one wine. The pours to taste the wines are generous pours. You'll end up buying more than one bottle I guarantee it. The tasting room is located inside a warehouse building in front of their front office lobby. The staff is very personable and welcoming. Their wines run $18-$25.

Burtech Winery is truly a hidden gem and one of my absolute favorite places to unwind. As a member,…read moreI get to enjoy all the little extras that make this place so special--from their incredible selection of reds and whites to their refreshing (and dangerously delicious) wine slushies. The atmosphere is always welcoming and fun, with great live music that sets the perfect vibe whether you're there for a relaxing afternoon or a lively evening. They also host creative events like monthly paint nights, which make it more than just a winery--it's a place to connect, create, and make memories. The staff is friendly, the wine is consistently fantastic, and there's always something new and exciting happening. Burtech isn't just a winery, it's an experience--and one I can't recommend highly enough.

We made a follow up visit to this little winery which is a little off the beaten path but offers…read morenice wines and the most beautiful views of the surrounding hills and valleys. Owners, Kim & George, are very friendly and offer up a huge selection of white and red wines. Parking can be a challenge. If there are no spaces open at the top of the hill, you'll have to park along the side of a steep driveway. The one plus is that they do have a golf cart that will run people up and down the hill, but I don't know if that's always available. The tasting room is average size, but there is a spiral staircase that leads to a large upstairs patio (uncovered) with incredible views. You can certainly enjoy a glass or bottle up there and take in the amazing views...all the way to the ocean! WINES: The Beach House property is 4 acres total, with 2 acres planted with grapes. On our last visit, the tasting menu listed 14 wines (whites, rosé, and reds), and we even tried a couple that weren't on the menu. The wines are well made, and some that we've purchased in the past have laid down well in our cellar. I always state, individuals' palates can be very different than mine, but I'm pretty sure there will be a wine you'll enjoy. I recommend you visit and check them out for yourselves. I think you'll enjoy it. NOTE: They're only open on Saturdays/Sundays.

A Hidden Gem with Stunning Views and Exceptional Wines!…read more Beach House Winery is a true treasure nestled in the hills of Oceanside. The panoramic views from the rooftop patio are breathtaking, offering a serene backdrop of rolling vineyards and the distant ocean. It's the perfect setting for a relaxing afternoon of wine tasting. The wines here are diverse. Each varietal is thoughtfully crafted, showcasing the winery's dedication to quality. We particularly enjoyed the Tempranillo and Syrah, both rich and flavorful. The owners are welcoming, and knowledgeable, making the tasting experience both enjoyable and informative. Their passion for winemaking is evident and adds a personal touch to the visit. The winery is also the owners' residence, which adds a charming, personal feel to the experience. Don't worry about limited parking at the top, one of the owners (the very kind husband!) will happily and safely drive you up and down the hill in a golf cart. Such a thoughtful touch and much appreciated! I'm looking forward to coming back to try more wines, and to check out the pizza vendor they had on-site. It looked and smelt amazing! Great wine, stunning views, and a friendly atmosphere, what more could you ask for?

Such a beautiful view that even teenage boys will stop and appreciate it!…read more I found a great deal on Groupon that included four glasses of wine and a charcuterie board, enough for four people. It was the perfect way to sample their wines while enjoying the scenery. We also ordered two pizzas: the Sunshine Cheese Delight and the Sunshine Meat Lover. Both were good and hit the spot. We added a large bag of Stellar Pretzel to share, and for dessert (because I absolutely have a sweet tooth), we tried the Sunshine Double Chocolate Cake and Tiramisu. I prefer sweeter wines and ordered the Rosa and Riesling , both were great and exactly what I was hoping for. A couple things to note: I had read in other reviews that there were servers, but when we visited, we ordered inside, were given a buzzer, and picked up our food ourselves. It was also pretty cold outside, and it took some time for the staff to turn on the warmers. We came on a Sunday and learned that live music starts at 3 PM. My husband and I definitely plan to come back for a date when there's live music playing. We were able to park near the top by the tasting room, which was convenient. There's also seating below near a beautiful waterfall and koi pond , it's a bit of a walk down (and back up). Overall, such a scenic spot with good food, sweet wine options, and a relaxing atmosphere. We'll be back!
