“Always friendly and helpful! Wonderful wines 🍷“

“Always a lovely day at Hollys 🍁🍷🍁“

“We came to this Vineyard for a wedding!! The venue was SPECTACULAR! Every year inch of this venue is pictured perfect! The beautiful greenery, the pond, the horse stables and the barn. The deck for the bride and groom’s first dance with the pond as the backdrop. The acoustics in the barn were great. The barn had three large sliding glass doors to open up the barn. The cocktail area is very intimate for guests. Plenty of parking for guests. If you are looking for a place to have your wedding? I highly recommend this Vineyard!!“

“Fun for a tasting! The tasting menu was vast and delicious, with a mix of white and reds. We went when it wasn’t too busy and Jeff and Mike were both lovely. Beautiful view! They have grab and go food or you can actually bring your own picnic and eat it below the deck in the beautiful garden! Will have to remember our picnic next time“

“This winery is one of the best! We visited for a wine tasting and the gentleman was so informative about the wines and how they are harvested, we couldn’t get enough of his knowledge! The wines, all six, that we selected on our own were excellent! We will probably join the club when we get home! Also, there is a picnic area that you can purchase a charcuterie board or cheese and crackers, spreads and dips to sit down and enjoy with your bottle of wine! It’s fantastic!“

“This winery is an absolute gem in Placerville! Their wines are absolutely delicious, and the variety of reds is truly impressive. The S&M wine, in particular, is everything I love about a bold red—big, full-bodied, and wonderfully jammy. It’s the kind of wine I could enjoy year-round, whether in the heat of summer or on a cozy winter evening - with or without food!

Beyond the wine, the owners and their entire staff are so warm and welcoming—they make every visit feel special. I highly recommend making an appointment to taste here; it’s an experience you won’t forget!“

“Amazing place! Had a great time.“

“Miss the winery. Thank your shipping !“

“We too have been members for years! What happened to Debbi and Nate? Wow, sad to hear, Debbi was 1 one of the main reasons we went FH, besides wine, but she truly made it extraordinarily special! Hopefully she's ok.“

“Best wines I’ve had, EVER, in this part of the state. We went for the Valentine’s lunch and it was a revelation (pun intended?). Tina is an exceptional cook, Frank and outstanding winemaker, both are lovely hosts, and their entire team is so kind, helpful and knowledgeable. My mother and I are excited to visit again.“

“Love sitting on this dog friendly patio gazing at the Sierra Nevada foothills listening to fun bands drinking outstanding wines. Life is good!!!“

“Great ambience and the staff goes above and beyond!“

“BlueBarn Provisions is an absolute gem in Camino! Everything about this place feels thoughtful and elevated…. from the cozy, charming atmosphere to the beautifully crafted menu. I had the Roasted Turkey with French Brie + Peach Jam, Spring Greens on Ciabatta, and WOW. The flavor combo was perfection; savory, creamy, slightly sweet, and so fresh. The peach jam with the brie took it to another level, and the ciabatta was perfectly toasted. You can tell they really care about quality ingredients and presentation. This is the kind of place you go once and immediately start thinking about what you’ll order next time. If you’re anywhere near Camino, this is a must-stop. 🥪✨“

“Great place, gorgeous views, free wine tasting and good quality wines at a reasonable price point. Less than $30 for most wines and the best part is that they are already aged quite a bit before release. The service was great, too. Rachel was super friendly and laid back. We bought several bottles of 2019 & 2020. It’s awesome to get wine that’s six-seven years old at this price point. Super glad we stumbled upon this gem. We will be back for sure. Highly recommend.“

“$15-$25 flights with one bottle purchase you get your fee waive. Beautiful winery with lots of grounds to cover for a nice hike or stroll. There’s a lake and beautiful IG Worthy photo ops areas like a walkway covered by roses. Easy to order flights and light snacks available inside the bar and deli. Overall it was such a vibe here. Make reservations as they fill up fast“
