We were staying in Garberville and wanted to taste some Humbolt County wines. We call Briceland Vineyards to see if we could taste that same day. Andrew the winemaker was working on a project but was kind enough to accomodate us at 4pm (just 2 hours after our call). We arrived a bit late and he was there to greet us with a smile. He invited us to taste on is patio in front of the winery. He brought out two cases so we could try a variety of wines to include: Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, PET Nat Sparkling, Rose of Pinot, Pinot Noir, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Sauvignon and a bonus wine of Arneis. Its rare that you sit down with a winemaker for over and hour and learn about winemaking. He really educated our group. His wife brought out a beautiful charcuterie board with cheeses, meats, nuts and fruit. I am a wine member at many wineries in other California regions and have never experienced such GOOD winetasting. On top of that every wine we tasted we liked which is also very rare. The Sauvignon Blanc was light and grassy. The two Chardonnays were unlike the heavy oak and butter types that are too big. His red wines were smooth and not too high in alcohol. We left with several cases of wine. I will definitely visit Andrew again when we visit Humboldt County. I highly recommend a visit to Briceland Winery in the heart of Redwood Country.

Andrew was very knowledgeable of the wines and was a great host! We had an RV so we decided to park right down the hill but the walk up was not bad at all.

We loved the wine so much we got a box of wines !

I've had better $10 wines, but that's just my opinion. They do sell some charcuterie items in their store which we did purchase. There was packaging from the items we purchased along with plates and napkins that were handed to us. It was odd there no trash cans on site. We had to dispose of our trash in the small restroom trash they had. I'd say visit for the view, do a tasting for $15 (light on the pours though) and stay to soak it all in.

We tried the Chardonnay, Rose', Merlot, and Harvest Rogue. The tasting is $5 a person and is waived with purchase. Each wine was wonderful and we bought one bottle of each! Their wines were reasonably priced around $20. Also, we called the day before to see if they were open.

The grounds surrounding the tasting room are green and colorful and very well kept. They're a perfect spot to sit back and enjoy a picnic with a bottle of wine. The Pinot Gris and Cab Sauv weren't ready on the day we tasted, so we'll be coming back soon! Tasting fee is $5, which is waived with a purchase of two very reasonably priced wines.

Their "Taste of the Day" takes you on an ATV ride through their family vineyards up a hill to a picnic table that overlooks Anderson Valley, orchards, and grazing sheep. The view is absolutely breathtaking! Sarah and Guy host most of the tastings themselves. They are a multi-generational winery that have been growing grapes for a long time. It's so great to know that you are supporting a family instead of a wine corporation and they are truly the nicest and most kind-hearted people. This is truly an incredible experience! We sipped a variety of quality wines, had some light snacks, and soaked in the incredible views! We purchased many of our favorites to enjoy at a latter date. Highly recommend to all when visiting Anderson Valley! Tips: *They only offer one tasting a day so my recommendation would be to reach out to them through their website well in advance and plan any other tastings you may go to that day around this one. *The tastings are not offered year round so go onto their website to see if they are open during the month you are visiting Anderson Valley. *If you are going in the summer months, make sure to wear sunscreen.

September 13, 2025 - Redwood Valley, CA…read more We stopped by on a Saturday and were surprised at how quiet it was. A big plus: they're dog-friendly. The tasting room itself is stunning, with soaring 40-foot ceilings arching over a central fountain--worth a visit just for the architecture. Flights are $10, and our host was especially generous, letting us try a few wines not listed on the menu. The wines were enjoyable, and the prices refreshingly reasonable compared to many other wineries these days.

When we arrived the lone worker was obviously busy and we were disturbing her. When I said I wanted to do a wine tasting she quickly set up the glasses, quickly put the small amounts of wine in each glass, handed me a list of the wines and walked away. No information, no history of the company, no tales of the land (and isn't that why we visit these places?). About 3 tastes in she asked "how is that?" That was it. I told my husband, even before I'd tasted them all, that there was no way I'd buy any of this wine, no matter how good it was, because the service was dismal. Though the grounds and building are beautiful I was so disappointed. I do not think we will stop here again. We love to go to tasting rooms and get educated and always come away having learned something as well as having a lovely time. Not so at Barra. The service certainly needs work.
