Sonoma Coast Vineyards 555 California 1, Bodega Bay, CA 94923

"Spencer gave us a fabulous tasting experience, so much so, we signed up for a membership. Plus the wines spoke for themselves. It was a beautiful day and despite being extremely busy, we were never left unattended at all the whole time we were there. We were allowed to taste a number of wines, all were good quality, well balanced and pretty well priced. The access to other wineries as part of the membership is a bonus perk we liked. Overall, 5 stars for sure. Thanks, Spencer! Rob & Merrilee Gelhaus"

"The wines sell themselves. The experience tasting however depends on who you get. We have been members for a few years and have tasted at the winery 4 times. Our first 3 tastings were off the charts fantastic - Very friendly staff that kept us intrigued and offered a couple different wines that were not on the tasting menu, after listening to what our favorites were. Our last visit was not good. The host sounded like he was reading from a script , then offered nothing off the tasting menu even though everyone else in ear shot was offered 2 different wines off of the menu. Possibly a new member to the team. Regardless of the service, we Definitely recommend this winery."

"Friendly staff of three working the sunny day we arrived. They allowed our greyhounds to sit inside while four of us did the tasting sans reservation. $30/each plus tip and we were allowed to pay separately. We started at the bar and then we’re moved to the table in the middle because the reservation didn’t show up. Steady stream of visitors. Most seemed like tourists. We were offered to join the wine club and waive the four tasting fees, but declined this time. As we just got a house in the area, it could be something we join in the future! Clean and airy space. Lots of outdoor benches also but we didn’t want to sit in the sun and there were no umbrellas. Two Restrooms in the back and a few items for sale in the front. Water available upon request. We also asked for a small spit bucket. One of us got the last parking spot so the other car went down the hill where there is a bigger lot. Two of us got bottles from the tasting. We were also offered an extra bubble or white at the end."

"This is nice small winery with beautiful view. Easy to reach the place. Open area seating and kids friendly. We tasted 4 wines."

"Cute little spot in Bodega Bay to enjoy a glass of wine outdoors on a beautiful day. I usually go for cabernets but they do not make any and so suggested their red blend. The red blend was a fantastic recommendation! Will have to revisit next time I’m in the area."
