The most delicious wine. So clean and lovely on the palate. Local, organic, no sulfites so no headache. I love the Rick's red lately. Smooth and easy on the palate. All of their wines are complex and vibrant yet complement the food without overwhelming.

This is a small tasting bar within the Julian Station. We enjoyed our chocolate and wine tasting. Selena was very knowledgeable about the wines from the region. She spent a lot of time talking to us about the varietals from the local wineries. The chocolate was tasty as well. We found a couple of wines that we liked and purchased them. We can't want to return and see what new wines they have to taste.

Cute little tasting room in an indoor mini mall. Sommelier knew his stuff and let me pick from a wide selection of chocolates locally sourced from Carlsbad. Yum!

I had to check out this place after I saw my coworker's Instagram story featuring this gem. It is located in the Julian Station, just a few minutes from Julian's Main Street. My boyfriend & I did a tasting, grabbed a couple of chairs outside, & enjoyed each wine. We loved how all of the wines were local wines & we especially loved the Apple Wine. Yes, Apple Wine! We never heard of it before & it was refreshing & delicious. The host was so kind & gave us so much information about each wine & the vineyards, which was definitely a nice touch. & at the end, we chose a piece of chocolate to enjoy with our last tasting.

Kim was providing us with our chocolate and wine tasting and she was amazing! Great service! This tasting was located among other vendors. My husband and I tasted cider, wine, and beer from three separate companies! It was a great time, great service ?

The staff was very helpful with our selection. We enjoyed a lovely chilled Malbec Rose with some tasty grilled food on their patio. Definitely will make a point of coming back.

This was a fun little stop on our way to Julian. My friend isn't a wine drinker and she didn't think she would like the reds and dryer wines but to her surprise she really enjoyed them. We did a wine and chocolate pairing and the chocolate is locally made and is pretty amazing! The wine is also local to San Diego county and we started with an apple wine which was the sweetest of them all and really good. As we went from whites to reds the depth of flavor got better. The hostess was awesome, friendly, attentive and pretty knowledgeable in regards to the wines. If you happen to be driving out to Julian stop in for a wine and chocolate pairing... I highly recommend!

Great small batch selection of local so cal wines. The owner is a really nice guy he is knowledgeable funny and friendly. Great place to stop and relax after a day exploring the town, but truthfully you could just drive up here for this place and chill for hours.
