18 Best Wineries in Murphys

“Just a great place to wine taste either inside their tasting room or on the creek side patio. And the people are so friendly!“

“We were in Murphy’s yesterday and a good friend that is very knowledgeable about wine and also a grower told us to stop and meet Gary and Sue and have a tasting. Unfortunately Gary or Sue was not available(probably crushing this years grapes to make more spectacular wine). However we met Jim and he treated us like long time friends, talked about the wines and very sociable. Every wine tasted was suburb and we ended up taking 6 bottles home to enjoy later. When we are back in the area we will definitely stop back in and hopefully meet Gary and Sue“

“Intimate setting. Nice syrah“

“Wonderful wine tasting room just off Main Street in Murphys. Walk a few steps down the alley from Toscano's restaurant and you'll find this beautiful little boutique winery that has some of the best wines in Murphys. Very quaint and cozy, super friendly owners on site to greet you, laid back atmosphere with live music on Saturdays.“

“Great wine and great prople“

“I stopped by in late October for a tasting. They have a lovely outdoor area. Kirsten is very knowledgeable as she is involved in the wine making process herself. She answered all my questions about the wine making at Sierra Foothills. I loved Ponderosa blend and picked up a bottle to remember the trip later.“

“The wine is amazing. I especially like the red collection. My wife likes the whites and rose. The service is awesome. We had a chance to meet Stuart, the owner. It was a true honor. I really admire his work. We also met Johanna. She is the kindest and friendliest person ever. We love this winery. We highly recommend it to all our friends. We will visit it again next time we are back in the area.“

“This is THE BEST winery in Murphys! My partner and I went to spend a weekend wine tasting up here and booked an afternoon. We had the entire place to ourselves (bc it was supposed to be closed and they opened just for us) and it was such an awesome experience. You can tell the family who owns this winery really cares about your experience here: the place is so colorful and decorated so beautifully, the wine is delicious as are the snacks that they provided, and they took the time to talk to us about how and why it was founded, the artist who created the absolutely beautiful labels for their wines, their experience in this town, how they celebrate their culture in their lives and work, the work that they do helping survivors of SA, and so on. Not to mention that the wine was really delicious. Their son has so much experience in fermentation microbiology (and a PhD in microbiology) to add to their expertise. They do such a wonderful job of joining science and art, I can’t recommend this place enough. I highly recommend this place: five stars on all aspects. We came out feeling tipsy and full of wine and love for this winery.“

“I been a club member of this place over a year…love their Cab and Barbera. Pam is amazing with her customer interaction and makes you feel like family when you go to their tasting room! Highly recommended when you feel like having a good glass of wine ❤️“

“Great place to take friends winetasting, especially on the front patio“

“Amazing wines ❤️❤️❤️❤️wonderful people always feels like family when your there !!!!!“

“A favorite stop in the Sierra foothills. David is a wonderful host and his wines have a touch of the Napa Valley in their flavor.“

“We had a party of 18 ppl and we called last minute to see if they could accommodate us and they happily did so. We had such a great time and the wines were very nice. Nick was our server and he was very knowledgeable about the wines as well as funny; he gave us a good time. The atmosphere was also very clean, modern, and beautiful which made it even more enjoyable. Plus it was a chilly day but their patio heaters along with the wine kept us nice and warm.“

“Great experience. Very down to earth and creative!“

“All of their wines are delicious and the cheese and wine tasting was great! Rebecca was fabulous and really made our experience over the top! Highly recommend, especially if you're looking for a more laidback atmosphere.“

“Hovey is a beautiful winery with great wine! We visited on Friday afternoon and were greeted immediately and seated outside. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable about the wine. If you're in Murphys don't miss a visit to Hovey!“

“While the wines are ok, this winery is a destination stop. Get ready to spend half a day. Get pizza. Get a bottle of cab Franc. Sit in the patio. Enjoy the wine and food. Walk to the lake. Explore gift shop. Admire the huge gold nugget.

Lovely.“

“After a few days of exploring the cool little town of Murphy’s and numerous wine tasting stops, we fell in love with La Folia Winery. The shop on Main Street is a fantastic spot for great wines, amazing people and a bunch of nice hats. Our hostess Shannon was fabulous and fun, made us feel right at home. We are now members of their wine club and look forward to many more visits to La Folia and the Murphy’s area. Mark Elledge Aug 2023“
