    Had a really nice time tasting at Parsonage recently! While tasting rooms are plentiful in Carmel Valley Village, apparently big bold reds are not, that is unless you come to Parsonage. Unlike most of the tasting rooms in town, they offered two red only flights. The two flights were the premium, which offered 4 tastings and the reserve, flight which had 3 wines. Since there were two of us and I'll take any opportunity to try new wines, we did one of each! We let the tasting room associates know that this was our plan and they accommodated by switching up the pour order so that we could try all of the wines from lightest to darkest and were able to do a side by side of some. We came on a Saturday and didn't have a reservation, but we were able to be sat in the raised tasting area out front. The indoor tasting room is fairly small so if you are hoping to taste indoors a reservation is recommended. We had a nice little heater that was very powerful and kept us toasty outside. The tasting room associates were extremely attentive and didn't let us go long with an empty glass. They were also knowledgable about the wines and history of the winery. My favorite wine of the day was the estate pinot, which I ended up taking home with me!

    Came here after having a not so great experience with tasting elsewhere and this place was exactly the wine tasting we were hoping for. I recommend this place for sure. Everyone working there was super nice. While bringing out the wines for us they actually told us a bit about the wine and the label. It is so cool that the labels are pictures of quilts! They have some quilts in the tasting room and the detail is just crazy to me. Anyway back to the wine, our party bought 2 bottles each. All the tastings were really good. The bdl, cyrano, the Syrah, and the wild card red wine were all purchased. I would come back to their reserve tasting next time.

    The only tasting room open on a Monday with an available reservation... took a chance & booked it. Nice wine with a variety of flavors for every palate. Beautiful outdoor seating area & knowledgeable staff. Be brave and taste the wine from the wildfire!! It's interesting & strange to learn how the devastating fire altered the flavor. COVID restrictions impacted the opportunity to eat while tasting & no outside food is allowed -- this is the only negative.

    A friend and I celebrated our 30th birthdays in the Carmel Valley. Our first tasting room was Parsonage, and I immediately had a connection. This is a family Winery, and everyone has a part to play. The wife makes quilts-beautiful quilts, that are displayed in the Tasting Room, both in actual their quilt form, and digital photographs (so they don't fade), in addition, they made up the wine bottle labels. I myself am a sewer, so it was neat and fascinating to me to see quilting displayed so elegantly. Such a treat, and definitely added a unique touch to the Tasting Room, that I will not soon forget. The wine of course was delicious. Reds are the way here. The best was their Syrah, and a unique red blend. Summer, the host that day, was another reason we loved this Tasting Room so much. She was such a sweet, friendly host, and we interacted easily with her. She remembered my friend who had been up to the winery a couple months before. She talked with us easily the whole tasting, and seemed to be genuinely invested in the product and devoted to the family behind the product. We were here on a Friday afternoon, so we were the only ones in for a while, she had a couple locals come in to drop or pick something up, but she never forgot we were there. I definitely recommend visiting the Parsonage Tasting Room, should you happen to be in the Carmel Valley!!

    We went on a beautiful day and loved sitting out front but they also have indoor seating. We ordered the reserve tasting and loved the stories behind the names of the wines. It was informative!

    A lovely tasting experience. We did not have reservations, but we got there right when they opened and they were able to seat us. There are only 4 outdoor tables right now because of Covid, so next time, I would make a reservation. All of the tables had a heater next to them and the patio is covered. There is also hand sanitizer on every table and they are dog friendly. They have 2 different tasting flights available, and we chose one of each so we could share and taste everything. The Syrah and the blends were standouts for me. We purchased 3 bottles, which more than waived our tasting fees.

    Nice place.

    So the wines were all ok. But the staff isn't as friendly as the should be in the hospitality sector. Good location and nice art made by the owners wife , but as MARCO would say, I'm not a fan. Slow service.

    Not a winery but more of a wine bar. We were disappointed to find this to be so. We will read the fine print more closely next time!

    Their Snosrap (parsons spelled backwards) is their low cost, off-estate wine and it is excellent for the price.

The hostess greeted us immediately with a complimentary splash of rosé and walked us to our table right away (no waiting, no confusion, just genuine hospitality!). Within minutes, our server came over and kindly offered us a few wines to try before ordering, which felt like a lovely mini tasting experience. We ended up ordering the Big Basket snacks, a bottle of Chardonnay for the table, drinks for the kids, and of course took a sparkling wine home with us as well. A small detail I especially appreciated: the wine box is simple cardboard without oversized branding or wasteful packaging - practical, elegant, and actually reusable. The atmosphere here is absolutely wonderful: a beautiful courtyard, soft music, charming decorations hanging in the trees, a cute swing, and some of the most gorgeous blooming bushes and landscaping we've seen at a winery. The entire place feels so thoughtfully maintained, peaceful, and inviting. We spent a couple of hours there without even wanting to go anywhere else afterward. We took so many photos and already know we'll definitely be back. Thank you, Holden, and the whole team for turning our day around.

Nestled along the rolling hills, the estate has an immediate sense of calm, quiet, elegant, and intentionally intimate. It's the kind of winery where the experience feels carefully curated, yet completely unpretentious. The wines themselves are exceptional. Pelio leans into cool-climate sophistication, producing whites and reds that are wonderfully balanced, expressive, and full of character. Their Pinot Noir is especially noteworthy, bright, layered, and gently complex, with a finish that feels almost coastal in its freshness. The Chardonnay is equally impressive: crisp, clean, and beautifully textured without ever being over-oaked. Every pour reflects thoughtful winemaking and the unique Carmel Valley microclimate. The staff is knowledgeable without being pushy, offering insights into the estate's philosophy, vineyard practices, and terroir with a genuine sense of enthusiasm. The setting, surrounded by vineyards, soft breezes, and sweeping valley views, makes it easy to linger. If you're exploring Carmel Valley's wine scene, Pelio Estate is an absolute must-visit.

There is a large, lanscaped outdoor space with many seating options and a Bocce Ball court. But as with most tasting rooms in Carmel Valley the outdoor areas abut the main road through town so there is some noise and not the views you might be used to when wine tasting near a vineyard. That said it was walking distance from our hotel and the town is easy to navigate. Service there means they bring all of the tastings in individual glasses at the same time so there is not much interaction with staff unless you buy something or ask a question. I had to ask about the backstory of the owners and staff didn't share much about the terrior of the wines. You can order food (maybe just pizza?) there from Corkscrew Cafe across the street where we ate later that night. (We didn't love the lemon prosciutto pizza we had but lots of food on table nearby looked delicious.)

We had an excellent Charcuterie Board that included generous portions of high-quality meats, cheeses, and accompaniments for a very good price. It was a great place to while away some time on a beautiful CA day. We definitely recommend stopping here.
