I've been here twice for tastings, once on a whim last summer because the main road construction…read morewait was unbearable and once last month as part of the plans I made for my sister visiting. Both times were on a Friday afternoon and both experiences were consistently awesome. Tasting room wasn't too crowded and we were able to sit at the bar for our tasting with Lee. It felt like a private experience. He is truly passionate about wine which makes him really fun to speak with if you want to learn more about wine in general or their vineyard. The wines were all impressive and tasty from the whites to reds, hybrid and vinifera. Chill spot so don't worry about dressing up just come as you are. It's cute inside and clean with character but it's not "fancy".Prices are very fair. Nothing but great things to say. I wish them the most success!

I really, really enjoyed the wines from Garfield Estates. I don't even like white wines and they…read morehad several that would be just perfect for sitting out on the patio on a sunday afternoon. The Viogner is particularly delightful and my friends raved about the ice wine. I would have liked the Cottonwood Cellars wines more if I had known what they were. Unfortunately, the sheer volume of people at the grand opening overwhelmed the tasting bar. There was no list of the wines available for us to "follow along" and the pourer never really told us what wine he was pouring us. I think we had several of one wine and missed out on several others. But, since we didn't know what they were, I cannot recommend any :( However, they did have a "pink" wine called "the panty remover" that was the only memorable one. Parking here SUCKS!!! Just give up, park a block away and walk, it is SO worth it. When turning into this lot, you can't really tell if there are any spaces. Then, there is no where to turn around if you get it and can't find a space. This made for some Three Stooges style comedy trying to get 3+ cars to back out onto Pecos simultaneously. Not cool. Special note: Go to the Colorado Winery Row website and print out a coupon for free wine tasting at each of the 4 wineries (Garfield, Cottonwood, Versa & Bonacquisti).

After drinking my stored wines from everyone on Winery Row over the past year, Cottonwood Cellars…read morehas gone down on my list. It seems that every bottle I open has a floral undertone or aftertaste. I was initially excited that these guys offered a pinot noir since that's so rare here in Colorado, but theirs does nothing to curb a craving if you drink any other good pinots regularly. I wouldn't mind so much if these weren't as expensive, but all of the bottles I had were $28 and up. Even the reserve cabernet sauvignon didn't excite me upon opening at home. After drinking a bottle of '04 cab from Verso last night, there is just no comparison. I DO still love my wine bustier though :)

it was a nice stop into Hermosa Vineyards the other day. We…read morewere in town for a few days, working remote, and our goal was to try a few wines in the area. We had already strung together a nice wine tour on the Friday and then we we did parks on Saturday. When we were back in town Sunday I suggested we swing back through Palisade(our Airbnb was in Grand Junction) and see if there was another bottle of wine we might like. After 1 other spot we swung by Hermosa Vineyards. It was a humbler operation than some we noted, as we pulled in. I sorta like that over a grandiose entrance. The tasting room was even more humble in size and layout. As we walked in a larger group was just leaving and bought a few wines, so I figured it must be pretty good. It was good overall. The vintner was also our bartender he said. He told us alot about the history of him and the place. We learned alot about the produce he had growing as well. We were the only customers at that moment so he was especially chatty with us. It was a nice stop, we didn't get a bottle here, but we did appreciate the vibe.

As my expectation for this small but reputable winery grew as the day of the trip was near, today, I have the pleasure of writing this 5-star review to add to others' raves after I had a wonderful time spending 30 minutes at this one of a kind winery a few days ago. Kenneth was the most experienced/knowledgeable wine makers out of all 11 places I got to visit in Palisade mid this week. He certainly knows what wine making is all about and I could taste the precision he puts into each varietal. No wonder his place is ranked one of the top Colorado wineries. Hermosa is small and quaint but big doesn't always describe the success of a/any business. I certainly see that his pride as a wine maker is reflected in the kind of winery he runs: no extravagance, no big/expensive sign. Some great business is not always on the main/busy street; hence the expression, "hidden gem". Ken's winery is a hidden gem of Colorado's wine country is an understatement. His wines are not cheap like other wineries' wines so expect pay $5 to $10 more. But once you have tasted the qualities of his wines after a flight, you WILL be convinced to buy a bottle or two.
