We had the loveliest time with delicious wine! He took us through a small tour of their property and we tasted some of their wines, and my favorites were the Syrah and Barbera.

They have a lovely place with wagyu cows, chickens, goats, etc as well as a BEAUTIFUL view of Ojai. Tour starts with looking at grapes growing on the vines, followed by walk into bottling / storage area, followed by tasting wines in their stunning backyard area. Others on the tour brought small charcuterie board ingredients and shared with everyone - would recommend bringing some light snacks for the tasting portion. Tour included about 10-12 people total and was completely free (!!) in hopes of attendees buying wine bottles at the end (which was fairly priced and very good - our group of 3 got 4 bottles for $120 total.) The owners are celebrating the lost art of breaking bread and sharing time and stories with strangers over wine - felt like something that you'd find in Italy. I didn't really know what to expect since there weren't a ton of reviews for this, but my group (2 adult sisters + our mom) really loved the concept of this entire experience. It's not a typical wine tasting where they give you 5 wines and leave you be at a table, so wouldn't go here if that's what you're looking for. But if you're looking for a unique, less touristy experience, this is an amazing place to learn more about the history of wine in the region directly from wine-makers, stroll around a beautiful vineyard, and connect with others in Ojai enjoying the same things. Cannot say enough positive things about Bob + his wife. Highly recommend this!!

Rita is so knowledgeable about the tasting notes and origins of all their wines. She always makes us feel at home while we're enjoying glorious wine selections out on the patio. She has a list of tastes and she'll add in a pour or two when she has something special off the list. They offer an accessible wine tasting experience that's enjoyable for both wine enthusiasts and a first time wine tasting encounter. Majestic Oak features Rhône varietals such as Syrah, Grenache and a lesser known Cinsault. We are members of their wine club because of the quality of their wines and the value. The rich reds that we selected were sourced from local Ojai vineyards as well as the best of the Santa Barbara County growing regions. They also offer beautiful white wine varieties that call for a summer picnic or garden party. We loved the Bruce's Rose that celebrates their mascot, Bruce. Highly recommend for the quality of their wines and for the wine tasting experience.

A few of my mom friends & I decided to take some time for ourselves & one of them suggested we go wine tasting, the obvious question arises: who will drive? When another mom said, "Let's do the jeep tour", I was like, "I'm no tourist!" (being born & raised in Santa Barbara & living in Ojai for over a decade) definitely the wrong attitude to have, & I am so grateful I was overruled. Our tour was AMAZING! The owner curated the wineries we went to base on a conversation with my friend, four perfect picks, the jeep ride up with our guide/driver Michelle was great, she had lots of history, I swear I learned some things about my hometown area I had never known! Fortunately they did prepare us ladies by recommending hats/scarfs or hair pulled back, I wore & ponytail & tied a scarf around my head & was perfectly fine in the windy jeep, bonus it gave me a great excuse to pull out a scarf I bought in Paris last year (#humblebrag) The wineries were postcard beautiful, the Cloud Climbers people have cultivated great relationships w/ the wineries, you could feel the mutual respect, our included lunch was to die for, I am still thinking about the bread! The wineries offer some amazing clubs & you are able to drink some vintages not available anywhere else, of course we all scooped up our personal favs, Michelle did an incredible job of keeping us on track yet still allowing us to feel free to enjoy each winery at a leisurely pace, never rushed. We were all loving the Cloud Climbers wine glasses included, they all came decorated with cute bead wine charms to keep them straight, mine magically matched my outfit! I especially enjoyed the drives down the dirt paths of the vines & learning about the growing process, it was something I had never considered in wine making & I must add: enjoying the vistas, in the open air jeep, with the warm new Summer wind breezing over your skin, I closed my eyes & felt so grateful for the moment. Being with treasured friends, drinking delicious wine, creating new memories, really just stopping to enjoy the moment, I believe it's the feeling we are craving. Don't miss your opportunity to have a wonderful experience, the Cloud Climbers people are pros in every way. We are already planning our next outing with Cloud Climbers!

if you're able to book cloud climbers, you're going to have a good time…read more I've taken cloud climbers twice previously and had a blast each time. I recently booked for 3 couples, a party of 6 for next weekend Feb 16th for belated V-day celebration. But the other 2 couples couldn't make it so I called today to update the party size to 2 people. Because we were only 2 people, we were told that they couldn't guarantee us a spot since it's not profitable for them to host a tour with only 2 people. He said he'll put me on a list, so if other people book, the tour will continue, if not, tour will be cancelled. I was a little surprised because I had received an e-mail from them that says buy a valentine special for a party of 2 (picture attached). I think it would've been nice to put a note that tours do not run if there is fewer than 4, nice to have but I didn't rate them a 4 instead of 5 star for this since I get it, a business needs to run on a profit. I decided to cancel and explore other options. When I called another tour, they explained that it was their slow season, also mentioned that there's a minimum number of people for them to be profitable, but provided me other options like instead of semi-tour, maybe first book a private tour, which is more expensive, but they'll be happy to lower the price if other people sign up too, or if I'm flexible, there's other days if I wanted the semi-tour. This was where I saw the difference between a 4-star vs 5-star service. And so to my previous statement, if you're able to book cloud climbers, you're going to have a good time. But what sets a 4-star from 5-star was this recent booking experience. 4-star was them politely letting me know they can't service two people. 5-star is letting me know, explaining why, and seeing if there's other options that might work.
