Restoration Vineyards was one of our favorite winery stops! The scenery is absolutely beautiful, and it's the perfect place to relax and take in the views. Even though it was 95°F outside, we stayed comfortable thanks to the plenty of shaded seating and outdoor misters. There are cozy chairs on the lawn where we spent quite a while enjoying our wine and the scenery. The winery is also pet-friendly both inside and outside, which was a huge plus for us. They don't serve food, but they typically have food trucks on-site. We did the tasting, which included all six wines currently available. My favorite was the White Blend, while my husband's favorite was the Red Blend. The staff was incredibly friendly. After we ordered our tasting inside, they even brought the remaining pours out to me while I was relaxing outside, which was such a thoughtful touch. Overall, Restoration Vineyards offers beautiful views, great wine, excellent service, and a very welcoming atmosphere. We would absolutely visit again. read more

July 17, 2026 - Palisade, CO Absolutely one of the best wineries we've visited in Colorado! The grounds are beautiful, with lush grass, plenty of shade, and cornhole games that make it easy to relax and spend an afternoon. They also have a dog-friendly outdoor patio, which is a great bonus for travelers with pets. We chose to sit inside and were fortunate to have Zander as our host. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the tasting experience enjoyable. My husband and I shared a tasting flight of six one-ounce pours for $20, and the tasting fee is reduced to just $10 if you purchase a bottle. The wines were outstanding, and we ended up taking home six bottles. Everyone on the staff was warm and welcoming, and the owner, Gary, even took the time to chat with us about their winemaking process. That personal touch made an already excellent tasting even more memorable. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would gladly return the next time we're in the Grand Junction area. read more

Staff was very knowledgeable about their wines but for our tasting, there were times when the pacing was off. All the wines we tried were delicious and their outdoor patio overlooking the vineyard was breathtaking and comfy if you wanted to lounge for a while. I wish they had a little food menu but they were gracious enough to bring us a little cheese and crackers prepacked container. However, a full menu of food would be a benefit here. The restroom was clean. This place was recommended to us by local residents and I definitely know why. read more

Restoration Vineyards - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Palisade, Colorado

This is such a beautiful space. We were on a wine tour and our guide introduced us to Gary, the owner. Since our trip was a celebratory one, our anniversary, Gary brought out a bottle of the sparkling rosé. We ordered a tasting from Marissa, who was helpful giving us recommendations. There are shade sails outside and we were sitting under one, enjoying the snack we had brought along. My brother-in-law was asking questions about the restored cars and that was a fascinating conversation. The vineyard was not only restored to its current state but the owner also restores classic Mercedes cars. The views are spectacular and you can see a great distance. A short rain storm swooped in and sent us running for shelter, but it soon passed and the sun reappeared. Overall great visit. I would recommend going to this winery. read more

This was the second winery we went to when visiting Palisade, CO. They had a nice outdoor area with views of the mesa while surrounded by the vineyards. We got a flight of the white wines - all of which were very unique. Our server was extremely attentive and friendly in explaining each of the wines to us. He was even giving us suggestions on things to do in the area. Our favorite was the resiling- we ended up getting a bottle it was so good. Overall this place had the best tasting wine out of all the wineries we went to! It was also dog friendly and had a food truck outside if you are hungry. I would recommend this place if you are looking for a chill outdoor wine day! read more

This vineyard was great! Stopped by on our winery tour last weekend and loved it. There was live music going on outdoors and some food trucks and booths outside to check out. Inside the staff were super nice and helped us out right away. I ordered the peach sangria outside at the tent and so glad I did. It was amazing and so refreshing. It was a group of 7 of us for a bachelorette weekend and they were so kind and let us sit upstairs In a private area for a while to get out of the heat and enjoy some wine. Everyone loved their wine choices N the sangrias. read more

If you only.have time to visit one winery in Palisade, visit this one! The outdoors area has a great view.of the Grand Mesa and Mt. Lincoln and Mt. Garfield. The red and white tastings had some great selections. They also had a seafood food truck...who knew you could order a hot lobster roll with real lobster meat on the Western Slope? Finally, the owner, Gary, did an amazing job serving and explaining our samples. Awesome place! read more

Such a great spot with fabulous food trucks, music, and wine. I really enjoyed the space and thought it was a perfect spot for one last look at summer. The band was awesome and very much our vibe. We loved one bottle of sauvignon Blanc which was the second one on their menu. Service to close out is a little slow when they are busy so give yourself time. read more

Very good wine. They do a few interesting things outside of the Boedeaux varietals, like pinotage and barberra. Excellent service from Blake. read more

Visiting vineyards in Grand Junction? Don't dare skip out on this one. The tasting, like most places, will be what you want it to be. Put more into it and ask appropriate questions, expect a better experience. The stand out with this Vineyard when compared to others is the beautiful outdoor seating area that is encompassed by Vineyard. Enjoy your crafted vino with a view of the mesa. Amazing. A Ma Zing. read more

Restoration Vineyards - Lovely outdoor patio 5-17-2024 - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Palisade, Colorado

Probably my favorite winery in Grand Valley. Their wine is top notch, they serve in nice stemmed glasses (even for tastings), and they bring each glass individually and explain about them. Mark is the best! Keep doing what you are doing Restoration!!! read more

Went there for a quick happy drink while in town from Phoenix, Josh was the greatest employee, he helped us with wine choices and even our seats outside to face the view we wanted, Josh made this visit the best visit we could have expected read more

Lovely spot we came upon while on a road trip from CA to WI . If we lived in the area we would be regulars! Staff is knowledgeable and friendly, and the outdoor seating area is beautiful. Wine was very good. Unique blends. My husband and I liked both the reds and whites served in our tasting. Bought a few bottles to take with us cuz we can always use some Restoration! Would give it a 5star if they offered better snacks. read more

Excellent! We found Restoration Vineyards on Yelp. It was a 5 star location based on the beautiful setting, atmosphere, friendliness, and wine. They are dog friendly too. The inside bar and serving area is small but there is plenty of room for sitting outside. We look forward to returning! read more

Such a great space, great wine & welcoming staff!! We rode our bikes to several wineries/vineyards in the area but this was our favorite. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly and the wines were great. They have a beautiful outdoor space & even had a fire going. The cherry on top was the complimentary s'mores station!!! Because it is the slower seasons they did not have the food trucks on a Sunday when we went. read more

Stopped by intending to do a tasting, but learned that Restoration Vineyards doesn't do tastings during Band in the Barrel events (and we didn't know what that was!). We were initially disappointed and going to leave to move on to the next winery, but so glad we didn't! We ended up enjoying the Barbera wine on the lawn until closing and had the best time listening to live music, sipping on some delicious wine, and soaking up the awesome and relaxing vibes! read more

Wonderful space to enjoy Colorado wines! Ryan was most helpful and knowledgeable when speaking of the different varieties. A great experience overall! read more

We had a GREAT time here on Saturday, even though the weather was hot. Live music, food truck and a very lively atmosphere. Because of the event, they we're only serving bottles and glasses, which was fine with us since was our second stop of the day and we tasted at our first stop. We had the Albariño and it was delicious. Josephine our "wine angel" was so friendly and attentive, she definitely added to the experience. The whole staff was very welcoming. If you only have time to go to one winery, I would definitely suggest Restoration Vineyards! read more

Restoration Vineyards - Bottle on ice and music on the lawn! - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Palisade, Colorado

This is probably my favorite winery in Palisade. Everything is absolutely perfect about this location: beautiful grounds with lots of outdoor seating space (perfect grass lawn vs gravel that most of the places have), breathtaking views, amazing wine, outstanding customer service. They can accommodate huge groups of people, and have quite a bit of different wines (specializing in dry wine) to choose from. On certain dates they also have live music. Wine tasting is $15 and if you purchase a bottle of wine, they take it down to $5 and apply $10 to your wine. I definitely recommend checking out this place! read more

A must-stop if you are visiting the Palisade area. We decided to opt for a wine tasting as we heard amazing things about this place and wanted the whole experience. The wine tasting comes with 6 pours (3 white, 3 red). All of the wines were delicious, but their white wines are amazing!! After the tasting- we lounged on the chairs under the nice shaded area and listened to a talented musician as we sipped on our peach Sangria. The ambiance was everything I could have hoped for - beautiful scenery, delicious wines, and staff that was as cordial as they can come. We didn't eat here, but there were two food trucks parked directly on their grounds. I more than once looked around at everyone's smiling faces thinking "This place really knows how to make people happy." I can't wait to come back to Palisade to do it all over again and try some more of their delicious wines. Put Restoration Vineyards on your list of wineries to try, you will not regret it. read more

Best winery I've tried in the valley this year! The atmosphere is lovely and so peaceful being that it is a little off the beaten path. The service was warm and attentive as well. I wish I had tried the red wines but, I am a California full-bodied red lover lol, so I tend to enjoy the whites on the Western slope more. And Restoration's whites did not disappoint! The albariño was crisp and had a nice minerality. The vermentino was reminiscent of a chardonnay. The partially shaded patio was the perfect place to relax on a sunny spring day. The views of the vineyard/orchard and Mt Garfield in the distance were the icing on the cake! read more

This place was great! Wines were delicious and interesting. Annette took great care of us. We will be back.

Saturday afternoon delight We dropped in on a hot July Saturday afternoon after visiting 2 other vineyards. The vineyard has large sun shades stretched across their lawn to provide much needed sun cover. A live band of three were entertaining the patrons. 2 food trucks offered gyros and Thai food. Wine is cheaper by the bottle instead of per glass. Vineyard closes at 5. We would return. read more

Restoration has a really nice courtyard with shaded seating and plenty of chairs. The views of Mount Garfield are stunning too. We had a few servers stop by and chat, all super friendly and the tasting is only $20. They also usually have a food truck, Southern Belle was there the day we went and it was delicious. read more

Another solid vineyard in Palisade among the dozens. The location is one of the best with great views and beautiful well kept grounds. The tasting room is relatively small but they have ample outdoor seating for when weather permits. It was busy even on a random weekday mid afternoon. The wine is good with a couple that stood out more. One downside is they have a very small selection. read more

Restoration is a great spot for outside wine tasting. The little courtyard was wonderful to sit at and enjoy the outdoors. The reason I am giving them 4 stars is because of variety of wines. I am a sweet to semi-sweet white wine lover, Restoration has mostly dry wines. Wine however is subjective to taste. Their tastings you can buy 4 whites for $10 and if you buy a bottle you get $5 off your fee. Same applies for the reds but they only have 3 red wines. If you do all 7 it is $15 but if you buy a bottle it is $10 off your fee. Even though most of the wines were on the drier side, we were able to find a bottle to buy making our tasting fee only $5. Overall it was a great little winery to checkout but I wouldn't necessarily go again. read more

I HIGHLY recommend Restoration to anyone visiting Palisade. This is one of my favorite wineries to visit. The wine is amazing, the service is stellar and the ambiance is unrivaled. This is one of the few wineries that has a grassy area with chairs. The band and the barrel series on Saturday's is such a fun touch. You do need reservations to attend to reserve your spot early! read more

We went here on the recommendation of some friends, and it really did live up to all the hype! The tasting bar was small and intimate, and we had a good conversation with some folks who were next to us. We chatted with one of the servers too, who was he husband of (one of?) the winemaker, who does all the car restorations. Everyone was so nice, and they had a lot of information about the wine. They also had an interesting tasting where you could compare oak-aged versus aged in stainless steel. I think we both preferred the oak aged. Overall this was such a fun experience with really nice people! read more

Amy from Green Barn recommended this winery to us while we were picking up peaches. They have a large lawn area with comfortable chairs with an awesome view of the vineyard and mountains. We did tasting for $10 for all 6 on the list. The wines both white and red were a bit too dry for me but the hubs enjoyed the Chardonnay so we purchased a bottle of that. When you make a purchase, they waived the tasting charge which is an added bonus. read more
