Good pours and all the wines were low alcohol. They try and make them as natural as possible and are smaller batches than bigger wineries and labels. Friendly service as well. My only critique are the stools, they were really uncomfortable so sitting there for the whole tasting was not fun. We purchased one bottle and could have maybe purchased a couple others but we opted not to. I will also mention that there was a slight push to try and buy bottles at the end. Stopping short of saying "you should buy some bottles" but a lot of "nudges" and "hints" about buying bottles. We would definitely come back to try other pours.

I'm not one for white wines and I even loved their white varietals, so that should speak volumes! The staff member during our visit was very friendly and had excellent taste in music. The pours were generous as well, more so than a usual wine tasting! It was fun to sip wine and they even let us pick a vinyl to play while we visited. We were so impressed by the wine that we even joined their wine club. I can't wait to receive the first shipment! I'm also already planning our next visit to this tasting room, which is located in an awesome one road town. Located across the street from The Alamo Motel, where we stayed for the weekend, so we just walked across the street for our tasting. It really doesn't get much better than that! I definitely suggest making a trip to this charming wine tasting room and finding out for yourself what a treasure it is.

Stephan, the owner/winemaker, poured for us and provided us with his winemaking history. We tasted three wines, a '20 Chardonnay, a '22 Grenache, and a '22 Tempranillo, with revisits of our favorites. All were good, and we left with a couple bottles to add to our home cellar. He also had a couple friends visiting that brought their guitars and had a little folk music jam session, which created a very relaxing and fun ambiance. The week before our visit, they participated in the annual Mushroom Festival where they poured the same wines, however they had a food menu with several mushroom based items which really caught my eye. Definitely something to add to our calendar in the future. Overall, a pleasant experience and nice wines. Would stop in again to check out new vintages.

This is an interesting, woman owned/winemaker boutique winery focusing only on Grenache wines. If you like Grenache, and we do, you'll most definitely get a deep dive into them here. The tasting room is rustic and quaint. Joaquín was a gracious host and poured for us a '23 Grenache Blanc, and several other Grenache reds from various vineyards and produced with varying methods (whole clusters, co-fermentation, etc.) Good aromas and flavors on everything. Enjoyed several enough to take some bottles home with us. Overall, a nice, unique experience and would highly recommend to any Grenache wine fanatics.

The owner, Sonja, is a very cool, kind, talented and warm person. Her staff is kind and friendly (some of them are the owner's family, which is way cool). I love knowing that I am supporting a female owned label, so I became a member (years ago). This last visit just last week was another great trip! This time, they sold a beautiful, tasty charcuterie board with corn nuts. There were so many delicious cheeses that I have never heard of. You can do a tasting inside our outside in a nice patio area. They also sell wine. My sister told me about them and I am so glad she did. I have told several wine loving friends about Sonja and Clementine Carter (formerly called Casa Dumetz). One trip there and you'll see what I mean.

We'd heard a lot about Clementine Carter (formerly Casa Dumetz Wines) and the owner/winemaker, Sonja Magdevski. Honestly, based on what we heard about her style of wines, we didn't think that they were going to be a match for our palates, but we're so glad we stopped in and did some tastings. We ended up taking six bottles with us on our first visit and stopped in again in late 2025 for a follow up. WINES: The wines are well-made, utilizing minimal intervention, paleo-friendly, organic, and prioritizing sustainability. They focus on Rhône varietals grown in the Santa Barbara County wine country. IMO, the whites are dry/crisp, and the reds are on the lighter bodied side, but we've found ways to pair these types of wines with our meals, while we typically drink heavier/bolder wines on their own. We have plenty of wine friends that will love everything about Sonja's wines. They also sell bottles from other wineries they "adore", so no need to travel all over the place. They're your one-stop shop. In addition to wine making, Sonja has an adjoining coffee shop and offers some of the most delicious charcuterie boards and munchies to pair with your wine tasting experience. There's also a good-sized patio, should you feel like taking in some fresh air. Add Clementine Carter Wines to your "must visit" list. You'll thank me for it.

NOTE: For groups of 6 or more, they offer tastings at the vineyard. First visit and had a very nice tasting experience. The winery is in the heart of downtown Los Alamos, directly across the street from the post office. It has a cozy vibe with a nice wine bar and lounge seating area. Ramon, the owner/winemaker, was friendly and provided an interesting history of his family's wine journey. My wife and I shared the two tastings: Estate wines (Grenache, Syrah Noir, and Cab. Sauv.) and Meadowlark Vineyard wines (Syrah, Meritage, Red Blend, and Reserve Cab. Sauv.). They have 17 acres planted at the estate vineyard and they use French oak barrels, with a blend of new and neutral for aging. They produce about 600-800 cases a year, so definitely a boutique winery. The wines are well-made, and quite tasty. We took several bottles home with us. Amada Cellars is a nice place, and I recommend that you check them out when visiting the Los Alamos/Santa Ynez wine region.

(Turns out Jose is one of the business partners who came up from Temecula where he lives and works - Sidecar Tours HQ is in Temecula - to cover for a driver who wasn't available.) They are still growing their business and their team, so being flexible is key for him and his partners to do what needs to be done. The sidecar experience is exhilarating. The wind whipping around your face... and if you're the front passenger... bugs smacking your cheeks. (Keep your mouth closed.) Wear layers because it can be kinda cool/cold depending on the weather .... and when the sun starts to go down in November... it definitely gets cold. They have a basket in the back that you can put your extra clothes should you not need them during the stops. Oh... and definitely zip and tie everything (clothing-wise) while riding since things really do fly around your face, etc. I didn't have my scarf tied and it nearly flew away, so I tied it in a neat little knot so that it would stay put, and zipped up my jacket since it was flapping everywhere. The rider in the front has the better view, no question. However, the front seat is not super comfortable. The person in the back has a comfy seat and is more secure but has to deal with the person in front blocking their view a bit. We made 3 stops. One was to show us where Neverland Ranch was located which is not where I thought it would be. So, that was neat. You can't see anything other than a nice gate with no signage and a guard who tells you not to block the driveway. The other 2 stops were at Vincent Winery and Roblar Winery. We also rode through and around Solvang which was nice because we took back roads which were a short cut between Los Olivos and Santa Ynez/Solvang that I didn't know about so that was nice because we were having dinner in SY later. Oh wait... technically, we made 5 stops. A quick little stop to look at an orchard at a pretty piece of property in between Los Olivos and Santa Ynez. And then on the way back to Los Olivos, Jose spotted a big gray owl hunting from a power/telephone pole, so we swung around and stopped for a minute and got a nice look at him. Beautiful bird. Note: Jose picked 2 really nice wineries where the tasting was part of the package. Both wineries were lovely. I'd go back to both again. Overall, a really lovely Friday afternoon touring around in a sidecar.

He was very friendly and knowledgeable not only about the wines, but about the estate and the land. The scenery was about as serene and peaceful as one could ask for (I was the only customer there albeit). They only take reservations, which makes sense since they probably would want to control the number of people at any given time and therefore enhance the wine tasting experience. The wines were delicious; I was particularly fond of the Syrah and up getting 3 bottles (which waived my tasting fee). I'm told they have some events during the summer months (live music, food trucks etc.) so I'll be sure to check it out next time. Overall, one of the best experiences I've had so far.
