9 Best Wineries in Madera

“Our visit today for wine tasting was awesome for two reasons. The wine was superb and Nikki (sp?) was the perfect example of what a wine tasting host should be (personable and knowledgeable). We purchased a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon and loved our host!“

“Exceptional Experience Birdstone Winery is an absolute treasure. From the moment you arrive, you’re welcomed into a warm, relaxed atmosphere that feels more like visiting close friends than a traditional tasting room. The staff is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what they do — they make you feel right at home and take the time to walk you through each pour with care and enthusiasm. The wines? Simply amazing. Each bottle is crafted with attention to detail and a deep respect for the winemaking process. Whether you prefer bold reds, crisp whites, or something a little more unique, Birdstone has something that will absolutely delight your palate. Every sip reflects the quality and character of their grapes and the skill of their winemaker. The ambiance is just as impressive. Set in a peaceful, scenic location, the winery offers beautiful views, cozy outdoor seating, and a laid-back charm that invites you to slow down and savor the moment. It’s the perfect place to unwind, enjoy great conversation, and, of course, exceptional wine. Birdstone Winery isn’t just a place to taste wine — it’s a place to create memories. Highly recommended for both seasoned wine lovers and casual sippers alike.“

“This is prob my favorite winery in is all place Madera calif. They have the best moscato at 15% in orange and black that is so very delicious. I moved out of state and I mail order it here normally with paying 1cent when they run their specials. Wish I lived close as going to their wine tasting room was always a great time.“

“This was a pleasant surprise. We usually wine taste in Napa and Paso Robles. I brought my daughter for her 22nd birthday, this was her first tasting and Miguel was awesome!! He was very professional and knowledgeable. He even did a blind tasting in the end for us which I have never seen before . The wines were fantastic!! Even the white wines, which I normally pass on. Great job Cru and Miguel!!! We’ll be back!“

“We just happened to come across Ficklin Vineyards while driving through Madera and wow! We were so impressed. Chase is a fantastic member of their team: personable, friendly, and knowledgeable. As newcomers to Port wine, I really appreciated his approachable introduction to the different varieties and the attention to detail that goes into their winemaking. It made for a memorable and welcoming experience.“

“Bang, The Box was fabulous! Bartenders are phenomenal and estate is beautiful 💕“

“I've been going there for years and I've never had a bad loading experience myself. Of course depending on the day you pickup it could be real busy. Still not bad though, and they have truck parking across the street if needed. I like coming to this place.“

“Their Sangria is amazing! They have quite a few wines that are very good. Small place, but VERY worth your time! Go visit Tony in the tasting room, he's great!

Edit! They just released their white sangria, and it is absolutely delicious! Go try some!!!!“
