Visited yesterday and enjoyed our experience in the distillery tasting room on site next to the wine tasting patio. Max our server was very knowledgeable and helpful. We shared a flight of 4 for $20-our favorites were the botanical gin and the chamomile liqueur which apparently combined with lime juice makes for an awesome gimlet. Since we enjoy mixing our own cocktails at home with friends, we appreciated the recipe card Max gave us at the end. Beautiful winery with lots of choices to try! read more

Had some tastes from Willow Creek when they were at a tasting event in the Bay Area and knew they'd be a must visit on my next trip to Paso. We were told at the event that they take walk-ins, but the website emphasized reservations, so we made one just to be safe. We were greeted in the driveway by the winery dogs, a very welcoming sight! They were great leaders to the tasting room, though they stayed outside for the duration of our visit. We each did the regular flight, which was 1 white and 4 reds during our visit. We did also get an off menu taste. Our favorite from the flight was the whole cluster grenache, we ended up taking a bottle of that one home. We were helped by Erica, she was super fun to chat with and very knowledgeable about the wines. We didn't know this when booking, but the tasting flight came with a snack plate! It had bread, cheese, nuts, some dips, and olives, such a fun surprise. The property and tasting room were beautiful! I also loved that you got to see the massive steel tanks as you walked into the tasting room. read more

We booked a tasting at Willow Creek Wine because it was conveniently located within walking distance of our Airbnb, and had a great experience! This winery is dog-friendly and has 3 friendly dogs that roam around the property. The tasting room had elegant decor with a fireplace, beautiful blue accents, and a calm ambiance. However, we chose to sit outside and the staff members quickly moved our table into the shade. They also brought out a plate of snacks to go with our wine tasting, which was such a nice touch! This included freshly baked sourdough, manchego cheese, apple butter, nuts, and olives. I can't remember which wines were my favorite (this was our second tasting of the day), but I do remember being very impressed with the lineup. Overall, Willow Creek Wine was a gem! read more

We had a delicious tasting of chenin blanc wines, and learned a lot! Unhurried, friendly and informative service.

Always a good experience when we visit Willow Creek Wines. Natalie and Brian provide an ever-changing menu of mostly estate wines, frequently paired with delicious little bites and nibbles from Natalie's kitchen and Brian's garden. We recently enjoyed their Gracious hospitality served up with several wonderful Chenin Blancs, Syrahs, a new Spanish blend, a meaty Mourvèdre and a library pour of Brian's Emerson Brown Napa Cabernet. Do yourself a favor; carve out some time for a tasting at Willow Creek Wines. read more

We stumbled upon this winery after reading the Yelp reviews. Well... they were all true. The wine was outstanding. The ambiance is great as well and we enjoyed talking with the owner as she explained each wine and the story of starting the vineyard. Will definitely be back! read more

If you want a real personal wine tasting experience, you need to go to this winery. A friend who lives in Paso told us to go a couple of years ago and we had such a great time, that on this trip it was our #1 destination on our list. Natalie and Brian are a couple, with a baby in the way, and are also the winemakers. Delicious wines and they also provide a little appetizer which always includes Natalie's home made bread. This time it was a foccia. So tasty, like a mix of bread and biscuit. The bread came with herb butter, green garlic purée, pickle radishes and almonds that had a sweet and salty coating. Fantastic!! We ended up joining the club and got 2 bottles of the super tasty Chennin Blanc. Please go try this winery, great wines and that personal touch make this a must try! Already planning our next visit! read more

We love this family owned and run winery. Natalie and Brian always make you feel welcome. The wines are some of the best in Paso.

Part of me wants to give these amazing wine makers fewer stars so all y'all won't go there and ruin but I cannot tell a lie. First of all don't be put off by the industrial look of the exterior. The tasting room is beautifully appointed inside. The wife and husband team who own and and run this winery are gifted artists. I have never liked a Chenin Blanc - I bought theirs.... Their #23 is fantastic as is their other wines. The snacks they serve are delicious, they also sell some of their preserves. Please Support this wonderful family who make delightful wines, and please be nice! don't make me regret this well deserved five star review by being a disrespectful drunkard. Thank you read more

My new favorite winery in Paso (even splurged for the membership). Great variety of wines and origins of the grapes - each with a unique story. The decor was gorgeous with some tastings in a barn, indoor space (with a/c nice for the paso summer) and an open air pavilion. We got 5 tastings + 2 ($15 add on), you also get a tasting plate with homemade pickled veggies, crackers etc. All the wines were great - the vernacular was AWESOME. All the bottles are reasonably priced. Staff super friendly, and the dogs are most friendly... yes they have 4 dogs roaming the property and ensuring you have a fabulous time. read more

Amazing winery cozy tasting room in the barn . These talented wine makers from Paso Robles And Napa combined their wine making skills to make some excellent wines . The Chenin blancs were light and full of flavor and the reds were all great. We especially liked the pinot noir that was a delight. Dont miss the delicious apps included with your wine tasting and the friendly knowledgable wine staff Natalie and Chrisina. read more

The presentation, the wines were amazing, the service and the servers were so nice and knowledgeable. We were recommended to go to Willow Creek and were not disappointed. Sooo good! Go here you will love it. read more

My husband and I recently enjoyed wine tasting at Willow Creek. It was quite an experience! They accommodated our preference for white wine and presented a wide variety for tasting. Their wine is amazing! Their staff is friendly and attentive- lovely. They even provided a charcuterie board to enjoy with our tasting. It was loaded with homemade deliciousness, compliments of the owner, Natalie. The ambiance was pleasant, the tasting room relaxing and comfortable. We are now proud, new members of their wine club and we're looking forward to our next visit. read more

What a find! You drive up to the tasting room past the barn and vineyard. We went to the tasting room in the new main building. The tasting was simply delightful. Cole is a wealth of knowledge. He shared information about the winery and the wines themselves while making you feel welcomed. The nibble plate was delightful which included homemade crackers, romesco, pickled carrots and olives. The wines- lovely. Thank you for a great experience, Cole! read more

Just finished a full day of wine tasting and after discussing with our friends we all agreed that Willow Creek was our favorite. Amazing couple - Natalie and Brian are lovely, they provide a warm and welcoming atmosphere that takes the experience to a different level. The wines are absolutely delicious. I do not care for whites, but the Chenin Blanc was excellent. They made a believer out of me! Their GSM and Vernacular are inspired. And their love story comes through in their wines. Give them a try! read more

Berkeley was a delightful server and hostess. The wines we tasted were top level, and resulted in us purchasing a case of mixed varietals. This is a boutique winery we will recommend to our relatives and fellow wine aficionados. What a rare find! read more

Definitely worth the 5/5 star review. Amazing wine, perfect service, and a great atmosphere. The pours were a decent size, which is always appreciated, but especially appreciated when the wine is this good. I am not quite the cab person I used to be in my earlier wine tasting days, but theirs makes me rethink my stance. The staff was incredibly attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. Willow has been on my list to try for a while now, so I'd say my only regret was not coming here sooner. (Cheesy, I know... but true.) read more

Willow Creek Winery was awesome! Me and my husband had a wonderful time and the wines are great! Brian and Natalie each gave us individual attention and thoroughly explained their wines and their wine making process. This is definitely a winery that will always be on our "must go" list. It is a quiet and very homey feel. Beautiful property. They also shared a wonderful plate of goodness from their gardens that was unexpected and very tasty! I highly recommend checking out a Willow Creek next time you are in Paso Robles! read more

I'm a firm believer in "locals know best" so on our recent first-time visit to Paso Robles, when our host suggested his favorite winery, we were all in. Willow Creek Wine did not disappoint. The wine is fantastic but more importantly, the hospitality at this family run winery is unsurpassed. We had the opportunity to talk with winemakers Brian & Natalie, and their passion for this land and its vines shines through everything they do. It's contagious. You'll enjoy a brand new tasting room, a production facility that features unique concrete tanks and if you're lucky, a fly-by visit from their German shorthair dogs who stay very, very busy. Best of all, you'll feel right at home. We look forward to going back, and in the meantime, count down the days until our club membership shipment arrives. read more

This is a charming small winery run by a local young family. They provide small little touches like homemade snacks paired with your wine tasting. They are super friendly and informative about their wine and the wine industry. Highly recommend this spot. read more

What a great find this place was! We loved everything about it, the service, the wines, the location, and the snacks they served. They have some of the best chenin blancs I've ever had, each very unique and well made. The reds were also fantastic. The service from Berkley was amazing, everyone we met there (including the three German short-haireds) was great and they seem to love what they do. It shows in the wines and the hospitality. We can't wait to go back. read more

Super hospitable staff. The owners are very nice. Great wine. Nice property and vineyard with a farmhouse feel. Inside and outside seating options. read more

Willow Creek is the total opposite of a corporate winery-you get the owner/winemaker pouring you their blood sweat & tears labor of liquid love-their wine. In a very cozy barn/house, you'll sample some amazing wines. I'm very partial to their white wines-a rarity in Paso-now well known for bold Rhone reds and the varietals. We especially loved the chenin blanc. In years past, if anyone offered me some chenin blanc, I'd definitely pass but WCC's chenin blanc was impressive. I should say it's horrible, don't visit because they're rude and mean, so there's more wine for us. But that's opposite from the truth. Brian and Natalie are an amazing couple who bring their passion for wine and produce some amazing small batch wines. In present Covid times, WCC will stop you in your tracks by offering you the old style of offering wines. It's like the old days of no fancy tasting rooms, just opening up some wine in a relaxed atmosphere where you hear from the people who are producing the product-how often does that happen? You'll get some teaser bits from their private garden, you'll chino them up wanting more but politely appreciating all their efforts. You'll be hard pressed to find a more down to Earth winery with Brian and Natalie.q read more

Went here and loved it! Friendly husband and wife. Very relaxing. Our little one ran around the property with the most amazing dogs. It was a very nice experience! Don't miss out! read more

If you are looking for the wine makers and owner/operators to be on site and share their love of their craft then this is the place. We have only been twice now but both visits were amazing. They provide little bites from their garden which is a nice touch. They pour their unique blends and you revisit as much as you like. They do have a wine taste profile that is not like the other wineries, I can't explain it but they are tasty blends. They are dog friendly too! Seating is limited so I recommend reservations but I think they would find a way to accommodate you if you dropped in. This is definitely one of our new must go to when in Paso. read more

This is a cute family owned winery. Husband and wife team serve and chat with you about their wines and their property. They serve the wines with homemade snacks. The wine is really good. read more

This small project is located at Sona Estate in Paso Robles. Brian and Natalie are a charming couple that make make some interesting and delicious wines. I tried 3 separate and distinct labels, the first specialized in chenin Blanc, the second was Rhone blends, and the third was Napa cab. I typically like chenin so this was a great find, I think I was most surprised by the quality of the Napa cab. I'll definitely add Emerson Brown to my lineup. read more

We stopped by unannounced only to be completely delighted by the friendly atmosphere in the fantastic wines some of the best you will find in the area there Chenin Blanc is outstanding You can really tell when people love what they're doing by the way they just enjoy everything in their day and everyone who comes their way what a fantastic group I couldn't say enough read more

We love coming here on Paso trips! Great wines paired with great snacks paired with great winemakers - it's worth a stop on every Paso visit. read more

We stayed at Sona Estate and would recommend the winery / estate to anyone! It is a beautiful estate/winery and Dennis/Candy are incredibly kind and warm. We hope to stay with them again in the future! read more

Amazing wine and great service! We got a tasting last minute and it did not disappoint. As a native Paso Roblan, we brought guests from out of town here for a tasting. We will definitely bring more! read more

Wonderful winery, great wine and a wonderful couple that own and run it. I'd suggest you stop in. I don't think you'll be sorry!

Girls weekend started off poorly at a different winery where we made reservations for 2 charcuterie boards...received nothing but horrible service. Our sober driver Sandy suggested Willow Creek. Omg - amazing. One of the owners greeted us when arriving. Server was amazing (forgot her name but cool Hindu tattoo on arm) explained everything, was super sweet and then the owner brought us yummy bread his wife/business partner made with incredible romesco and other goodies. We were having the best time. I only really like whites and loved the entire tasting flight (reds and whites). Two of five joined the wine club and another bought a bunch of the veggies they jar. We even loved the soap in the lavatory! Great place that I highly recommend...as fabulous wines, friendly staff, very chill dogs, tasty snacks and the tasting room was homey. Barn looked nice but didn't go into as was reserved for party. Thanks Willow Creek, my group is still talking the great experience and wine! read more
