John and our dog Nikita. John loves Akita's and he always has a treat for our girl.

Hands down my favorite place to come have some good wine and great conversation. John is the most gracious host - always makes us feel like we have come home. My favorite from Rocky Creek is his Zinfandel- I think it's 2018. Very reasonable prices for some really amazing wine.

$5 Wine Tasting For 4 Wines
Vic C.

Rocky Creek Cellars has a dog friendly tasting room and wine tasting is $5 for 4 wines (all red on my past visit). I came by this winery last Sunday afternoon with my husband and little girl dog. There was one party of 3 already in the tasting room, so pretty quiet for the most part. The girl behind the counter greeted us and started us on our wine tasting. Unfortunately I did not like any of the wines but I do have to say that I was surprised that their red wines were not as acidic as other reds that I have had. My husband did like the cabernet (he usually likes cabs in general). We did get a chance to try the ruby red dessert wine even though it was not part of the tasting. The only reason why was because after an older couple came in for a tasting, the girl behind the counter had offered it to them (and because we were next to them, she offered it to us too. But I don't think she would have offered it to us if the couple was not there). I truly LOVE dessert wines but did not like this one at all. It didn't have the same sweetness that I was expecting from a dessert wine. The tasting room is rather on the small side. There is a couch to sit on and lay out if there is little space left at the counter. You are also welcomed to walk around outside (a great patch of grass right outside of the tasting room for pets to relieve themselves (and their humans to get some fresh air). The girl hostessing our tasting told us that the owner (John) made all of the tables in the tasting room. They are really a work of art. There is a unisex restroom behind the counter and was clean upon this visit. Service was not overly friendly but relaxed. Also was not overly attentive but wasn't a big deal to me. Overall, our experience was A-Okay, thus the 3 star rating. By the way, the only food served here is complementary crackers and Hershey chocolate kisses available for nibbling.

My wife and I have been visiting Paso for over 20 years. After driving past on 46 West many times We finally decided to stop in and taste at Rocky Creek. What a wonderful experience. The wines are aged longer than most wineries and all were great. John, the talented winemaker was super friendly, funny and had many amazing stories. We felt like family when leaving. I'd highly recommend visiting RCC.

The wine is good but the front of the house staff was rude. The older man made odd comments. The experience.was not enjoyable.

Great winery for someone who likes light body reds. Staff was very friendly and the dogs were a wonderful treat. Great family operation.

Amazing Winery! Architecture and Wines! Lots of history in this tasting room and one can spend…read morehours learning and wandering around. Historic meets Urban is how I would describe it. The tasting room was named one the top #19 wineries in Architectural Digest (August 2018) in the WORLD! And #2 of the top #19. Now that's amazing and well deserved! Lacey was our tasting room host and she was wonderful! She knew all the history and well described the wines. She didn't rush us and encouraged us to relax, wander around, and enjoy the tastes. We were on the fence about one of the wines, and she offered us an older vintage so we would know how it would taste in 10 years! That worked! We were very impressed with their wines and they definitely sell themselves! The inside is very roomy and comfortable. There is also seating with nice views, should you want to relax outside. Definitely have added Epoch to our list of wines to buy and places to visit for future Paso trips!

Amazing wines in a gorgeous setting with a great wine guide(?Brady?). This was recommended to me…read moreby a friend and they were spot on. It was a lovely sunny and breezy spot on a hot day. The indoors is as beautiful as outdoors. We had our tasting outside. The wines were amazing. Along the lines (taste and price wise) as Law winery. Our guide was well informed and very personable and fun and we had time just to sit outside and enjoy. We also were given some bamboo plates and napkins to enjoy the sandwiches we brought in as our tasting was at lunch time and we didn't know purchasing cheese and charcuterie was an option. Had no intentions of buying when we arrived but left with 6 amazing wines. 4 big reds and 2 delicious whites, their focus is of course the big reds classic to Paso. We will return! Loved meeting the vineyard cat too! What a great day.
