    The wine is good, too bad the service isn't the same. You can be meet with an Egocentric "gentleman " serving you. Poor customer service. He even treated his employees rudely in front of customers The Cave feeling walking into the tasting room is cool though.

    Hatcher Winery was recommended to me by a few people so naturally I went to Yelp for more details. Dear Lord...the reviews! Hysterical (and slightly accurate). Let's dive in, shall we? I was actually nervous to taste at Hatcher because of what I read on Yelp. Thankfully, my friend is a regular and she assured me we would be in good hands. There is a certain etiquette here. Allow me to elaborate: -Do not enter loudly. This is a serious tasting room and your boisterous bachelorette party is not welcome. -You will most likely encounter Sewell. He owns the winery with his brother. Sewell is tatted up, straight forward and likes to tell crass jokes. He's basically the Wine Nazi. Follow his rules or pay the price. -Do not eat the sourdough bread they make before securing a tasting. You will be punished. -Your group needs to drink varietals at the same time. Do not deviate from this. If all that hasn't scared you off, I promise that the wine is excellent and you get to try A LOT of varietals! Also, the sourdough bread they make is delicious. Sewell definitely isn't everyone's cup of tea, but you probably aren't either.

    Went during the Witch Walk. There were only 2 other couples in there but we were almost ignored. She was nice but barely had any interaction with us. Wine was ok. I bought a bottle just to waive my tasting fee, the fee was either $20 or $25.

    For $20 for wine tasting they barely serve you any. And the owner was cocky and rude when we asked for a bag for the wine bottles he just threw it down on the counter and walked away. For it being my sisters first time time there, she told one of the girls working there he walked back and asked what's the problem, my sister told him she didn't appreciate the way he threw the bag down and walked away. His response was "Well don't ever come back if you don't like it. shocked!! To say the least. Never ever again. Should of walked out when we heard him being rude with other lady when we first arrived on the other side of us.

    Not even a hello nor welcome when we walked in! Supposedly it's a popular spot, it's not visible on Main Street, tiny tasting room. Packed with 2 big groups! We stayed around looked at T-shirt's and a few boxes of wines on the floor! Then we left! Don't come here if you want this service! There is another 30 wineries/tasting rooms in the Main Street that would greeted you warmly and welcome you in!

    Sewell was not friendly, would not recommend going. Didn't give us the time of day. Go anywhere else, had much better experiences elsewhere.

    Server was very arrogant. He put down every winery in Murphys. Also stated that French wine was better than the local wine he was serving.

    We have always been treated well by Sewell and the rest of the staff but this is a more serious tasting room.

They are located just outside of Main Street where most of the tasting rooms are located, so it is a perfect place to stop on your way in to town. The grounds are charming and filled with a garden and outdoor pavilion for wine club members. A perfect place to enjoy your wine flight on a lovely day! Upon stepping inside you feel a sense of calm not only for the cozy atmosphere but the lovely lavender fragrance from the lavender bundles. Kirsten the owner is a fantastic hostess. 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!
