Unexpectedly wonderful wine tasting with the owner. Walked in thinking it was a regular wine bar; but it’s a local wine shop with local tastings and a knowledgeable owner. Apparently he’s always here ready to talk wine.

Tastings are free if you buy a bottle - and we walked out with 4 great bottles (which meant 2 free and robust tastings.) Had an absolute blast, couldn’t recommend more.

Great tasting room with phenomenal wines. The owner is very knowledgeable and shared with us where every bottle we tried came from. Our time here was a delight and I highly recommend a visit!

Very hospitable, very welcoming, overall very "demure." I was part of a party of 9 for a Bachelorette party and we were happily welcomed the moment we entered. Customer service was top tier and employees very knowledgeable and accommodating. All 9 of us had a spectacular time, would happily come again.

Such a fun stop off after hiking at Yosemite. Great knowledge of wine and I liked the fact it was all from local area. Would definitely come back!

An unlikely combo, this wine bar connected to a ramen restaurant is a fantastic place. The owner is knowledgeable about wine, supports local wineries, and provided excellence service and conversation while we tasted and explored wines of many different varietals. I highly recommend.

Absolutely adorable tasting room (other half was a delicious ramen bar too!) with an incredibly friendly, hospitable, and knowledgeable owner.

Completed a 5 wine tasting (only $15!) which the tasting fee was waived when I purchased a bottle.

While the tasting options are “fixed,” there was a nice variety of reds and whites (I did all reds), and had no problem finding a bottle of wine I LOVED. Wine prices vary with the cheapest being $15 at time of posting and most expensive (that I saw) being in the $40s. Most in $20-30 range. Great mix of vineyards too.

Perfect place to stop to buy a bottle of local wine, enjoy a tasting, or both!

Same building as Little Shop of Ramen. Did a tasting with Kim and she was great! Wines are focused on the Sierra foothills area and a wide variety.

Connected to the little ramen shop. Super cute and very laid back. The tasting was good and had a good selection of wine! Kid friendly. My littles devoured the miso ramen. Didn’t get any pictures of the wine hah
