My best friend from school and his wife are members of this place, I personally want to disclose that I don't like to have biases, but I liked the experience!!!!!!!! The staff is attentive and wonderful at educating and explaining wine and their process. The decor is lovely, the desert wine and a few others are a joy! Tasting was a bit overcrowded but I don't see it as an inconvenience, rather a sign that if the wine is good, people will come!

Very cool vibe. Fun events. Great merch. They also have a very good bubbly. Huge outdoor seating area. Definitely worth a visit.

I went here when doing the Placer Valley Wine Trail Map and I was pleasantly surprised beach this was my first winery that I had been to in Placer County. I definitely enjoyed the wine and flight is by fair the best option! The reason why I took off one star is that the ambiance is interesting and the our server was not as attentive as we would like. For example, we had trouble getting and paying the bill.

We were honored to have Phil (owner, winemaker) be our pourer. We learned a lot about each wine and enjoyed each one! Will be back!

I wanted to like the place more. Plusses are a nice atmosphere and employee effort. We showed up at an event that was way more than they could handle. 1/2 hour wait for wine tasting. Tried just 3 wines and bought two bottles so we could find a place to sit and drink. The wine was just "ok", but in fairness, we only tried 3. No tables to sit, as there were twice as many people as seats. The owner made a great effort, hobbling around on a broken foot. That alone raised it from a 3 to a four. Unfortunately they need to be better prepared for a crowd if they advertise an event. At the very least, have some extra tables available for surprise crowds. I will try it again some time and hope for better.

Always enjoy our visits. Great place to spend a spring afternoon but the summers can be hot!

Great place. Super popular and crowded. But the wines are just ok...just my opinion.

Wonderful wine, friendly staff, owner/wine maker a delight to chat with. Perfect way to spend a Sunday.
This was a disappointment as the wine flights we tried were not what we expected excluding the Tempernilo. Rhone style wines can be very good but not here.

What an amazing winery with great staff and owner(phill who is extremely knowledgeableand makes all the wine). Excellent quality wines. Music on a Saturday and the perfect vibe. 10mins from I80.

My wife and I visited recently and I couldn't have enjoyed our visit more. Each wine we tasted was delicious and made the decision of what ones to bring home a challenge.The staff were all very welcoming and friendly. While everyone we talked to was very welcoming and friendly, I really enjoyed talking with Matt. Not only was he very knowledgeable and informative but he shared that in a manner that was interesting and down to earth. While I know beer very well, I still have a lot to learn about wine and he didn't make me feel like I was in a pretentious environment like I have at other places over the years.I definitely plan on visiting again next time we're in the area.

Went wine tasting with several friends at Lone Buffalo Vineyards recently and had a great time sampling their many and varied offerings. Owner Phil was very helpful providing details and was a great host. We were inside, but they also have a large covered patio area to hang out and fully enjoy the rustic location.

Lovely stop on a whim from Lake Tahoe to Sacramento. Cute location with exceptional hospitality. The wines were all well received but the Tawny Port stole the show. Thanks for a great time!
