A glimpse at the wine menu and the animal cracker menu

Sandra S.

Awesome wine tasting experience and I don't even normally drink wine. They had a selection of 22 wines and yes you can try them all if you want. From white to rose to red. It was such a great deal as it was $10 for a tasting and if you buy a bottle then it compensates for 2 tastings as well. Gary and Sue (owners - couple) were super friendly and knowledgeable and it was such a chill and casual environment to learn and drink wine. And they provided animal crackers as a snack as well which was very helpful as a snack to help keep sipping the wine. 100% recommend as a fun experience with or without friends/other people.

This is an unpretentous, cozy wine tasting room with a wide variety of wines you won't find at bigger wineries. They let you try everything they have in stock. We left with a nice variety of bottles for the year.

Walk the Wine Since we were visiting Murphys, affectionately referred to as "California's other wine country," we figured we should do a wine tasting. We're not winos by any stretch of the imagination, but as they say, when in Rome... After a cursory search of the Yelps, we decided on Gossamer Wines--mostly because it was one of the few that were still open--but the five-star average didn't hurt either. :) The Good: *Unlimited wine tasting for $10/ea *Wine tasting was free (for up-to two people) with the purchase of a bottle. *Bottles are very reasonably priced from the $20-30/ea range, with most falling in the $25 category. *Gossamer deals with mostly unique vintages of wine that one would be hard-pressed to find anywhere. *Sue was delightful and kept the pours coming. *hic* *I'm not sure what one other reviewer was mentioning, but prices are very clearly marked for both the tasting and wines themselves. The Meh: *Not the largest space, as there's probably only about seating for 8-10 and that might be pushing it. The Ugly: *They keep it a bit warm in there, especially on a hot summer day. I'm not sure if it's for the wine's sake, or they just like it warm? TLDR: Great place to taste unique wines and get to see what Murphys is all about.

Sue, the proprietor and wine maker's wife was so kind and accommodating. We tasted the full portfolio of reds ($10 tasting) and bought a half case of delicious and reasonably priced bottles. Sue was knowledgable but not pretentious. And she was warm and welcoming, not just to my husband and me, but our 4 and 6 year old boys too. She had coloring books and asked them what music they would like to listen to. The sweetest! Gossamer Cellars is a must stop spot in Murphys!!

I have never been to this town before and there are tons of testing rooms. It's a little overwhelming and you don't know where to start. So you pull up yelp and look at the ones with great reviews. This was one of them so it was my first stop. I tried several reds and the sparkling. There was not a single one that I would have chosen to have a glass of. They had hardly any flavor and almost taste and watered down. They were bland and boring. Surprised they were out of so many. I didn't really see an option to do a flight, they just let you try what you want. I had four very very small pores which was $10. There was no advertising or pricing anywhere that I could see how much that was gonna cost. Kind of odd. The best part was the animal crackers and the "tasting menu " Was hilarious. The owners were nice enough but it was not my cup of tea. I would not return for the wine

Celebrate birthdays on a girl's weekend!

Spent an afternoon tasting with Sue at Gossamer. She is so sweet and the wines were tasty. If you are in Murphys, stop by and taste and enjoy the good company.

We had a great experience here. It was our second tasting after Lavender Ridge, which was also great and charming. However Gossamer Cellers, the husband/wife duo, and the friendly patrons can't be beat. It was a $5 tasting for any/all of their 11 wines! Unheard of. There is just one small tasting bar and we were lucky to nab the only two open seats. The Riesling and Nebbiolo were my absolute favorites. I signed up for the wine club and got my first 3 wines (and a keychain :)) that night! You can also self-select which wines you want each quarter. The atmosphere and ambiance is charming with quirky quotes on the wall, pretzels and animal crackers. Gary said the bear animal cracker goes especially well with the Riesling. :p Highly recommend! And definitely the one to go to if you only have a enough time for one stop. read more

Gary, wine maker/owner was fantastic, he helped us with wine pairings and told funny jokes about pairing with their animal crackers. Wine was fantastic and service was even better. I loved hearing about their process and how they have come to own their own wine. The Grenache Blanc was amazingly oaky, while still being sweet, and the Riesling was a perfect mix of tropical and local fruits. We only tried the whites and we were very pleased with the taste and hospitality. Would definitely come back! read more

History

Established in 2015.

Starting out as a city kid that wanted to be a farmer my wife and I purchased property in Copperopolis and planted a vineyard. Quickly realizing that the winemakers we're having all the fun while I did all the work as a grower. We decided to start our own winery in 2005. That winery was started with multiple partners. After 10 years we decided to part ways and my wife and I started Gossamer Cellars. Rather than producing the same wines as most of the other tasting rooms in town we ventured off and decided to produce wines that were more adventurous and less common.

Meet the Business Owner: Gary G.

Began as a winegrape grower in 1999. Began making wine in 2005. Previously owned another winery in Calaveras County where I honed my skills as a winemaker.

She is a wealth of knowledge about her family's winery and history in the farming industry. The wine list was presented to us and we were encouraged to relax and enjoy the experience. Don't mind if we do! We made our way to the tables within the barn and commented what a perfect place to gather with friends and family while enjoying some delicious wines! Our flights were brought to our table on the cutest little serving tray along with some tasty treats to enhance the experience. Every single wine was delicious! I'm not a fan of big jammy reds at all and none of the reds gave that taste. I'm obsessed with their rosé and Aspen white blend. The Sequoia red blend is also a favorite. We were so impressed with the quality and flavor of the wines as well as the entire tasting experience. If you are looking for a new wine tasting experience in Murphys I highly encourage you to give Locke Vineyards a try. Cheers!

Such an amazing experience! Such beautiful wines and Sue gave us such an informative and lively tasting. Not only did she tell us all about their lovely wines, she had plenty of advice on things to do locally, and great anecdotes to match!

Gary and Sue are amazing! Extremely personable and engaging with their customers. They understand their wines but also want to distinctively understand their customers. Chill, Down-Home atmosphere. Would definitely come back. They also have a vast wine listing. read more
