Wow! I had my wedding at Toca Madera Winery and it was the best decision we ever made. The venue is absolutely breathtaking and so dreamy. It is so luscious and their grounds are very well taken care of. The bridal suite is gorgeous, spacious with vanities and a bar area. The wine is amazing and the staff is so pleasant. Cortney at Toca Madera is the best coordinator ever! Thank you Cortney for going above and beyond for Joshua and me before, during and after our wedding. She was truly a pleasure to work with, so sweet and made sure the entire wedding party was taken care of. I truly had the best day ever! Thank you everyone at Toca Madera. I highly recommend booking with Toca for weddings, events or just coming to their live music events and taking in the gorgeous views of the vineyard on rolling hills. So spectacular! read more

We loved all of the wines on the tasting menu. Such a beautiful place!!! Our favorite was the Cab-Syrah!

This place is wonderful. The staff is always fun and knows how to play a crowd which is appreciated when I bring my friends VS my parents. They always have something for every taste and love to help you entertain. Tonight I used their dessert wine, it came in my wine club pick up, in an apple tart. Bakers you need to seriously try this. read more

Amazing help and beautiful scenery! Phil helped us find the absolutely perfect wine to ship home, and helped us have the most amazing tasting experience in the meantime. Live music and the ambience make it an unforgettable afternoon, any day of the week! read more

I've visited almost all the wineries in the area and I'd have to say, this one was by far the worst experience. We came to celebrate a birthday, a group of 10 ladies and we felt unwelcome. We walked in, staff looked up and glared, awkward silence in the room, no hello but greeted with "do you have reservations?" We said no but bday girl really wanted to stay for pics. We sucked it up and stayed for her. We got glasses and bottles. They told us that we couldn't sit at any of the tables because they were reserved... I highly doubt it but whateves; we stood and walked around. There were only 5 other guests there. We still made the best of our company. Bought more bottles and left to have a blast elsewhere. This winery may have a policy about reservations but we didn't know about it and there was no private event... but maybe having a sign that says "reservations only" would help customers right when they get to the door. Most of the wines were meh. Just a few good ones (thought about buying more bottles to stock up at home to entertain guests but didn't want to continue dropping more $$$ to support a business with bad service). My girls asked if I'd considered this as an option for my wedding venue, I said "no chance". I recommend going to Fäsi, Solitary Cellars, and Quady for great service. Come here if you'd like to be poorly treated. read more

My boyfriend & I live in Fresno and wanted to go wine tasting but didn't want to drive all the way to Napa! So, for the first time, we made the short drive to the Madera Wine Trail. We made a few stops and Toca Winery was by far my favorite. Immediately walking in we were greeted by a friendly staff and a beautiful scenery. It was slow due to it probably being a Sunday, but we enjoyed wine tasting outside on the patio. So relaxing! NOTE: all of their wine is phenomenal! We ended up buying a bottle of each type of wine that we tasted. Bottles are decent priced too. Nicole & Joseph, who were working at the time of our trip were knowledgable and very attentive! I will definitely be back! read more

Their website did not have any update about events so when I arrived with my family for a afternoon day of wine and picnic we were turned away due to lack of space. Very disappointed with this winery for not updating website and inability to accommodate. read more

1,000 reasons to celebrate but, we were NOT given the opportunity to celebrate at Toca Madera. After an eventful month my friends and I decided to go on a relaxing enjoyable wine tasting experience. We wanted to celebrate our newly weds, engagements, expecting mothers, BA/MA graduates and of course the first timers that were so thrilled to encounter the wine world. We were so glad last minute a lot of our friends did make time out of their busy schedules to spend some quality time together. The adult life has many of us busy and edges us into attending events last minute. From only 6 of us celebrating a wonderful 8 more were able to make a reservation for the same time, wow we got lucky we thought, we were able to celebrate together after all! As we arrived the place was beautiful and we could not wait for some fun. When our groups of friends finally confirmed they were near from their 1 1/2 hour drive we were ready to celebrate. As I entered the building I heard Phill carelessly saying "we will NOT accommodate you guys." Courtney said "your cheating the system." I was speechless and I questioned did I reserve at the wrong winery? No, they simply accused our friends and I of being crooked. They repeatedly said those phrases as if we did not have any sense of comprehension and lacked communication skills. We politely asked we wish to sit separately in our two reservations we originally planned. They excused us from the winery and told us our business was not needed. I turned back and asked may we at least have a refund? Yes. They again repeated their two phrases. While outside we all were speechless at how rude their customer service was to us and we decided never to come again as we don't recommend a negative environment for anybody who wants to have fun. We were so upset our celebrations couldn't take place as planned but little did we know we were about to have the best experience just 10 mins away. One of our friends called Fäsi Winery, they gladly accommodated our large group of friends as they said "better for us, come on over in 20 mins!" We bought over $250 of wine had an amazing experience and a wonderful evening at Fäsi, NOT Toca Madera. We recommend anybody to Fäsi, they appreciate and care for their customers. Thank you Fäsi for making us stay in the wine world. We hope to never face that terrible experience again Phill and Courtney inflicted upon us. read more

Enjoyed wine tasting here. It's a such a beautiful winery. They were prepping for an evening wedding when I went. Wine tasting is either $5 or $7 depending on the list you want to try. However, the fee is waived upon any bottle purchase. It's a spacious tasting room with beautiful art work displayed throughout. read more

The workers were rude and unwelcoming. San Joaquin winery is much better and $10 cheaper!!! One one the workers here at Toca came to the front while my friends and I were taking pictures and questioned us on if we had paid or not, of course we did!!!! Each of the wines had no flavor and tasted like straight up rubbing alcohol. Not worth it and not worth having rude wait staff to ruin your experience. Don't waste your time here. read more

Lovely wine, great time, and most importantly the price is right for such beautiful and delightful flavors!

Sunday Tasting and building smelled like dump station for RV. Glasses were dirty. Kind of meh

1st time attending a wine tasting! The service was wonderful and the ambiance of this Venue was breath taking! I definitely would love to book my wedding here someday. The full cost of our wine tasting went towards our wine purchase. It's a win win! read more

Great vineyard! Customer service was great and ambiance was very nice. My friends and I came here for wine tasting and we loved all of their wines. I normally gravitate towards the reds, but I must say all were exceptional. Definitely recommend coming here read more

Toca Madera Winery has a beautiful back patio. It is a hidden gem in Madera just 10 minutes away from River Park in Fresno. I highly recommend stopping out there on a weekend for a wine tasting. They have multiple different varietals to be able to please everyones pallet. Some of their wines scored in the 90s on the points scale. A 94 and a 91 which is very impressive. read more

Beautiful venue to have a wedding reception and ceremony at. Wine tasted wonderful as well, I really enjoyed the sangria.

So, I grew up about an hour from madera and had no idea that they had a wine trail. Which now makes me feel dumb because the vineyards are literally everywhere! After moving to the Bay Area I became quite the wine enthusiast living so close to Napa. So when I heard about the madera wine trail I thought it would be kind of cool to invite my sister and niece to taste a few wines since they've never been. When we first pulled up I was like ummmm is this someone's house once we walked into the building and saw the back view of the vineyard I was in awe. It truly is an amazingly beautiful property. This is probably the only property that kind of resembled the wineries in Napa. I especially loved the price. It was $20 for all of us and it actually goes towards your wine purchase so already it's a great deal! They had some really interesting flavors like the grapefruit one. I'm usually not a fan of grapefruit but it actually wasn't too bad. The rose was cool although a little bitter but the other 2 were eh. One thing I did appreciate is that I spoke with our server about my sister and niece preferring sweeter wines so he let us try their moscato and sangria as well. My niece loves those 2 and picked up a bottle of each. Still, I wasn't really that impressed with the wine selection. The rating is simply for the wine selection. The property is beautiful and I'm glad I got to take a peek at it because I had been eyeing it for a wedding party venue and it was just as beautiful as I expected. read more

It saddens me to write this review as I love to support local. This winery is local for me and my friends. Three of us attended a Mother's Day yoga class here with our favorite teacher. The class was wonderful! Included in the cost of the event was a wine tasting. My two friends and I are in our 60's , avid yogis and wine lovers. We shared a table with 6 young women celebrating a birthday in addition to the class and tasting. Our pours, all three of us, were consistently smaller than our table mates and tables round us. One of our group even purchased wined which I didn't see anyone else doing. Hard to understand why we were poured less wine, but we all felt slighted. While our teacher will likely return to Toca Winery for more events, none of us will. And the quality of the wine? I won't be recommending it other other wine friends. Enough said. read more

Today, I had an amazing time at Toco Winery, the hospitality and passion of the employees were extraordinary. I thoroughly enjoyed the time we spent at the tasting and learning about each wine. I will definitely return. read more

Messy, unsanitary and customer service was unprofessional. A staff member was drinking on the job. I've never been happier seeing our driver pull up to the parking lot, to pick us up :/ read more

My family and I had a wonderful time at Toca Madera Winery, using it as a place for us to catch up with one another and relax. The live music was great, the setting was beautiful and serene, and the wine was delish! We enjoyed it so much not only did we load up on the wine to take home to Santa Barbara, we joined their wine club! read more

The positives for this winery are the very tasty wine and the friendly staff in the tasting room. That is why it is such a shame that everything else about this place was such a disappointment. Basically, enjoy a tasting a few weekends a year and just avoid it completely when looking for an event venue. We booked a wedding a year and a half in advance, with a $1000 deposit. 6 months later we find out the wedding coordinator is no longer with the company, the date she booked for us is absolutely not available, and she provided company made pamphlets with the wrong pricing (via email, in writing). We were willing to change the date of our wedding with the idea that there should be a discount for their mistake, however the owner then said since she had quoted us an outdated price, the discount he would give us was to honor the price we had been quoted. In the end, I think because he knew they were completely in the wrong, he refunded our deposit. Which tells me the owner of that business does not believe his customers are the reason he has a successful business as he could have just given a fair discount for our inconvenience of moving the date of our wedding after we'd been planning it for 6 months and that would have made things right. Instead he refunded a $1000 deposit for an event that could have made him $2000 plus at least $1000 in wine. read more

The Madera wine trail delivers! Nice people, great wine, and a gorgeous patio area out back where you can relax and take in a view of the vineyards while having your wine. We really enjoyed our visit, and since its so close to Fresno, we will be returning. Often. read more

Words cannot begin to express my disappointment with Toca Madera Winery as a wedding venue. My husband and I fell in love with Toca when we toured it as a possible venue not only for it's incredible scenic views, but also the convenience of the location. Upon arriving the day of my wedding, one of the staff was parked in one of the very few handicap spots available. I asked if someone could move the car as one person in my wedding party is in fact in a wheelchair, and that we would need the space not only for her, but to also make it convenient for vendors to drop off things that they needed to set up. When I asked nicely if they car could be moved before 11am, I was met with attitude, and the car was still in the parking spot by 2pm, which I found to be incredibly rude and inconsiderate. I specifically asked when booking, as well as when I did my wine tasting, that guests not be served alcohol until cocktail hour, as I did not want guests bringing wine glasses to the ceremony and potentially break one, and that there be a cut off limit because I was worried about people making it home safely. I was assured that not only would they not serve alcohol until after the ceremony, but that they would absolutely have a cut off limit, as they would be held liable should anything happen with someone getting home safely. Not only was wine immediately served to guests when they started to arrive at 4pm, but I ordered enough wine for 85 people, only 60 people showed up, and I came home with less than a case of wine - meaning they were overserving the wine. By the time cocktail hr finished, most everyone was beyond drunk. I was also told when I signed my contract that I would exclusivity to Toca for my wedding and my guests from 4pm to 11pm, as they were doing wine tastings until 4pm, which was not a problem. However, when I walked out to take pre-wedding photos around 4:15, there was a massive charter bus blocking most of the parking and the bus belonged to another wedding party that decided to come use the venue for their wedding photos. To say I was appalled would be an understatement. The people who crashed my wedding site, to my knowledge, were never addressed by anyone at Toca Madera Winery, whereas my wedding planner and photographers asked them to leave multiple times. They were still there taking photos when my ceremony started. The other wedding party not only blocked access to parking for my guests, and made it harder for them to get to my ceremony in a timely manner, they also made it impossible for my photographers to use certain areas because they refused to leave. The fact that Toca not only allowed this to happen,, but also did not address it AT ALL is infuriating. I would give them 0 Stars if I could. Do not get married here. The only positive thing is they make great wine. Other than that, don't waste your time trying to plan a wedding here. read more

Beautiful setting in Madera? Yes! Brian Whelan and his brother Dr. V took good care of us. Delicious muscat, Syrah and Cab Syrah. A must visit ! read more

I had a blast at Toca Madera! The space they have set up is expansive and the view is beautiful. They had 2 tasting menus while I was there, and both were unique and offered a great bang for your buck. The tasting fees were reasonable, as was the pricing on the bottles. The service was great and the staff was friendly and knowledgeable! read more

Wonderful Winery experience...it really could have been a Napa winery it was that good! We bought 3 bottles and our cousin visiting from Texas bought 4(shipped to her house for free). Classy place with employees that know their stuff. I love that the winery maker is more concerned about the taste than the look of the wine. An added plus was his wines were a little different from everyone else's in a good way. We bought the Moscoto and the Dulce Vida..so yummy! I would totally visit again and buy more wine! I can't believe they're in Madera! read more

One of my favorite wineries around. I have used Toca for a private party on the patio and they were very accommodating to our guests, the wine was excellent, and the views are the BEST around. I have also been here for the Madera wine trail where they host amazing vendors and food trucks. we love to keep up on all their activities because we know we will have a fun time there no matter what. Did I mention the view? read more

Awesome winery! I met a lot of cool folks here. Fresno is very welcoming in my experience. I hope to meet more pleasant people as we continue to live here and start a family. read more

Reservation process online was super easy! I was able to make one the same day I visited. It was a great deal$20 for tasting (for me and my date) and then we could apply that $$ to the purchase of a bottle of wind (we bought 2!). The views are beautiful and the staff was very kind and accommodating. It was a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon and the wine was fantastic! For the first time since COVID, life felt "normal" again. We will be back! read more

Here for a wedding reception and the venue was beautiful but the management was the issue. Constantly had problems with the lighting and power. We brought it up with the management but they didn't help us out at all. Actually told us that we were to blame for the power failures because we kept stepping on the wire, which was not the case at all. read more

O1-29-17 attended the Marie Wilson event at Toca Winery. Marie Wilson did not disappoint, unfortunately Toca Winery did! Toca Winery was not prepared for the following Marie Wilson's beautiful voice brings. One server, good luck getting your wine, (pricey too). I was the designated driver, unfortunately they had no bottled water for DD's. I had to drink tap water from the bathroom faucet. They did not come close to having enough chairs for people to relax and listen to music. Extremely, extremely slow service. read more

My friends and I went to Toca for a 22nd birthday and were highly impressed with the tasting and the staff. Stellar customer service from Ryan, Michael, and Phil. Beautiful venue and laid back vibe. We will definitely be back! read more

The reception party was to begin at 5:30 pm and the venue lost power at 5:00 pm. No staff member was able to get in touch with a manager and nothing was done for the power. The DJ had to run his generator to power the entire venue. We asked the owner for a refund as his staff working that night and a manager we complained to the next day told us to. The manager said this has occurred once or twice before and they believed the owner would give a refund since the venue was not able to provide any power for the entire night. We contacted the owner and he was hostile creating false reports of making a mess and blaming our string lights for causing the entire venue to run out of power. Our decorator and DJ both contacted the venue telling him that the venue was clean and there was no power except from the DJ's generator, but the owner refuses to cooperate. This is a scam business, very unprofessional. Look elsewhere. read more
