This place is great! The wine is ridiculously good and the staff are super personable and down to earth. Everyone I’ve run into there or started up conversation with have been very friendly. It’s a great positive vibe from the wine down. The owner gave me a tour and explained the whole process impromptu when I asked about some of the chemistry details. It was really fun to nerd out and put that O-chem class to use. He genuinely enjoyed showing me and explaining the process. The wine is amazing and place just feels comfortable, relaxed, welcoming… I lack the writing skills to give an accurate description but it’s truly enjoyable. I highly recommend giving them a try.
This place is amazing! We found it while visiting San Diego today and we cannot wait to come back! We got to meet Keith the owner and he and his team are just fantastic! Thank you for a lovely afternoon!
What a hidden little gem! We will definitely be back. Had some wines and grapes we have never heard of before. They have quite a generous fedora/wine club.
Tasting room located in warehouse district. Very attentive server. Very informative also. Tasting fee $25 to taste 6 wines. 2 whites & 4 reds. Wave Tasting fee with purchase. Prices for bottles of wine are very expensive. Whites $32 & Reds $47 & $59. Favorite wines were 2021 Lagrein which was bold & nice finish, Also 2020 Avennio lovely structure. I will definitely come back for sure.
Great wine and friendly staff. Interesting back story about the history of the winery and their wine making process. I can’t stress how good their wine is. I say this because as you drive to their location you will find yourself doubting, really doubting your google maps. Stay with it though. You will be rewarded with a great wine tasting experience.
I was wandering through OB looking for a mellow spot to chill. I was meeting folks later that night and needed to kill time. This seemed the perfect spot as it had enough room and I got to sample wines. Winning in my book. You can order a flight sampler or get a glass.
The fedoras on the wall behind the counter were left behind by guests when they have/had fedora Thursdays.
I have been a Fedora member of Gianni Buonomo Vintners since late 2015, and have always enjoyed walking in for a glass of wine locally, in my OB community. Al and Mark, along with the winemaker/owner Keith, are consummate hosts and always make us feel at home. I look forward to my thrice yearly wine allocation and am happy to stop by a couple times a month to check in on the happenings. I also appreciate how dog friendly this establishment is, as there are many doggy regulars, that I am more than happy to pet.
The wine is outstanding. The people are even better. Walking into the tasting room is like being welcomed into an old friend’s house.
Better than Napa or Temecula and located right in the heart of Ocean Beach. This quiet quaint little bar offers a wonderful selection of whites and reds with courteous and knowledgeable staff members who can help you pick a great wine/s for you. The prices are very reasonable for how exquisite the wines are (~$13/glass, $45/bottle) with discounts if you join their wine club (Fedora member). We visit here frequently and it is the best local winery.
Really nice place to unwind and have a glass of homemade wine. Tasty.

Great wines, locally produced
The new maistalli is great!
Very nice place with a lot of charm! The sommelier was very helpful and had an intensive knowledge of the wines. I’m always interested in learning more about wine varieties and I wasn’t let down here. I appreciated their variety of unique wines and the fact that every wine was enjoyable - a rare luxury for me.
This is a great find! We did a tasting here and all enjoyed it. Nice wine, pleasant atmosphere, friendly and informed staff. Katie was very kind and helpful. The reds are made by the winery and we liked them all!
Wonderful experience!Loved the symphony white wine!
An amazing winery and the best customer service and atmosphere anywhere. Love being a wine club member!
