We were lucky enough to find the only winery open on a Tuesday while driving down the PCH with our pups, and what a find it was! Claire, one of the owners, gave us the warmest welcome and even invited our two leashed dogs to join us. Their property is pure magic—a serene slice of heaven in the Salinas Valley.
The wine tastings were fantastic, and the pours were generous. Dennis, Claire’s husband, joined us a few times to pour and share fascinating details about their home and vineyard. Their passion for what they do shines through in every part of the experience.
If we lived closer, we’d absolutely be regulars. Thank you, Claire and Dennis, for sharing your story, your gorgeous property, and your incredible wine!
With gratitude, David & Josh Chappell & Siouxsie Sioux

The selection of wines is impressive, and the sparkling wine options are particularly outstanding!

Spent a pleasant afternoon outside with a wine tasting. Employee Julia did a terrific job matching wines to our preferred tastes. Very enjoyable wines, nice views and terrific people.

Winery was lovely..however the roads getting there are awful. Hit a pothole heading home about a mile outside of winery and it destroyed my front tire.

We are locals & this is one of our favorite places to visit. Wine is great. Our most recent visit was not so great which was rare, we were ignored while others around us were serviced consistently. I took the opportunity to express my experience with a gentleman who was working there. Customer service shouldn’t be selective & being a club member didn’t even improve the experience either. Hoping our future visits don’t repeat todays

Small family owned winery. Absolutely best sparkling wine you can get, hands down. The winery is cute and pleasant, great place to enjoy the sun with a nice glass. But what really makes it is the staff and owner. Genuine, caring, good people. There's nothing to not like. Don't question it, just go.

Excellent wine, Dennis is a master at what he does
My husband and I stopped in on a Wednesday around noon and had an amazing time with Daniella. We did a tasting and were immediately greeted with some delicious welcome pours of their sparkling varietals. We then each did a tasting and not a single wine was a disappointment. The vibe was relaxing and so much more welcoming than some of the more commercialized vineyards in the area. We were so delighted with our trip, I would have stayed longer if we had the time to spare. It was a lovely experience and I highly recommend! Dennis also stopped to speak with us briefly and we got to learn more about the vineyard and the seasonal impacts it has on the wines available. Honestly 10/10 would return!

We visited Odonata on a super quiet weekday. Only 4 more people were visiting at that time. It was a lovely experience. You can tell that the Odonata Team is very passionate about what they do. The wines were very good and the venue was beautiful. Highly recommendable!

A winery with a very friendly Eric. The wine is refreshing and easy to drink, and the price is reasonable, so it is good value for money. You can enjoy tastings in a place surrounded by wine fields and broccoli fields, so you can spend your time at a very leisurely pace. This is a recommended winery.

We started here as part of a three winery tour on a Saturday. We were the only people there early in the day, and we had a long visit with the winemaker. The setting is perfection! We loved the wines. We would definitely recommend, and we will definitely return.
