Presqu'ile Winery 5391 Presquile Drive, Santa Maria, CA 93455

"The chef creating the mezze picnic and specials at this place was so impressive on top of amazing views of the valley and hills, gorgeous architecture and fantastic rosé, syrahs and pinots. We ordered the special gallette made from locally sourced ingredients and the mezze picnic and the ingredients the chef put together was hard to decribe but so satisfying and delicious. Must go, but also reservation is important it gets busy. Side note they allow leashed dogs. Beautiful grounds."

"The service here was excellent. If you like full bodied cabs like Caymus or Austin Hope, you likely will not enjoy this wine. We did not. The only person in our group who liked it, doesn’t prefer the wines listed above. I wish I had known before we spent so much on the tasting. We wasted so much time. The food was delicious! That was the highlight. If I returned, I would order the food and the Sauvignon Blanc only. The wine is not paired at all with the food. The view is excellent."

"Presqu’ile is one of my favorite wineries in California. The wine was superb per usual, especially the sparkling and new releases of the estate Chardonnay. The food was divine as well. Alex and Katelyn were so helpful and knowledgeable when I was asking them questions about vintages and the estate wines. I can’t wait to return."

"I usually don’t post reviews on restaurants but Presqu’ile is an exception. This place is such a gem. It’s upscale without being pretentious, the wines are delicious and the food is even better. Suspiciously affordable for wine country standards, and it’s only suspicious because this is the best winery I’ve ever been to — and I’m from Santa Barbara. Chef Julia (I think that’s her name?) is incredible; never met the woman but I know what she does is magic. Tom provides amazing service. The Scandinavian architecture, coastal California feel and elevated atmosphere has something for everyone here. No complaints. 10/10. It’s giving more than we could ever ask for."

"I dropped by Presqu’ile on a rainy Thursday and wanted to leave a review of the food tasting and our server (Tom). Tom was an amazing host with our group, taking time to explain the wines, the history and the flavors we could expect. Tom’s warm and welcoming energy set the tone for a pleasant afternoon and food and wine tasting. I was a bit worried that as a vegan, I wouldn’t be left with much to eat, however Presqu’ile really delivered there as well! The chef and crew made sure I had plenty of options and communicated to me what dishes I could and could not eat. They even separated them out on a different platter for me. Of course the view from the tasting room was stunning, caping off a wonderful afternoon!"
