Hearst Ranch Winery

Love the views n the wine

The view and service were excellent. Having wine right next to the ocean was amazing. The food was good as well as the wine.

Pass! This place used to be wonderful and you can’t beat the location oceanfront. If you’re not a member you feel it as you’re now officially a second class citizen and not even “allowed” to purchase a glass of wine. This visit they sat us at the only table with a blocked view and wouldn’t move us to the open seats with views. Robotic service and tasting list didn’t even include the various blend percentages or any real notes. Very sad to say this is our last time here.

Fantastic tasting room just north of Cambria. The wines we tasted were all delicious, I especially enjoyed the library wine of the week the 2017 Malbec. It's a rare wine where all of the wines you sample turn out to be great. The staff are incredibly friendly and responsive. Prices are about what you would expect for a good winery. When the kitchen is open they serve a selection of dining options including a cheeseburger, bacon wrapped shrimp, and of course the charcuterie board. The food was fantastic and reasonably priced, the serving sizes were generous, enough to split depending on how hungry you are. The views of the ocean on the tasting patio are excellent. I highly recommend getting a reservation in advance as the tasting room inside and outside can be full during popular hours or good weather. If you are looking for a great place to drink wine this is a good location to try.

They do have food

Beautiful location and they have done some terrific upgrades. Check it out for sure and relax.

We absolutely loved our visit to Hearst Ranch Winery! The tasting experience was wonderful (they sources their grapes from Paso Robles), the service was great, and we enjoyed gorgeous ocean views. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. We appreciated the impressive amount of comfortable seating both indoors and out. It's a great place to enjoy time with good company! Highly recommended!

WOW!! What a wonderful lunch. I highly recommend making a lunch res here. If you’re not a member just call ahead to reserve your day/time. The website wasn’t giving accurate availability but I called same day and was able to get in. We dined here on a Friday and it was pretty full with other guests. Extremely beautiful venue. Friendly service. Delicious food all designed for sharing. Fun day date or fun activity to bring your parents to.

This experience today was a huge disappointment. The server couldn’t keep up with what she poured and then acted like she poured extra! This has been our worst experience ever at Hearst.

Incredibly Nice well trained staff had an amazing time while my girlfriend and I were there. We had the Legacy collection which was fantastic a little bit of something for anyone if I dare say. Christopher was amazing Host guiding us through the experience. Definitely recommend, can't wait to come back in the future.

Excellent wines, outside dining area and great food

Our visit to Hearst Winery after touring Hearst Castle was a delightful experience. The wine tasting was exceptional, complemented by a fantastic cheese and fruit box from a local vendor, which paired perfectly with the wines. The staff was highly knowledgeable, providing detailed insights into each wine's background and flavor profile. Sipping wine while enjoying stunning beach views made for a memorable afternoon. Highly recommend!

On a side note: If I was to nitpick, it would have been great to offer an incentive if you had just visited Hearst Castle and offered an extra taste of another wine during your wine tasting.

Wow- wanted to enjoy a bottle of wine in this beautiful outside setting that was COMPLETELY EMPTY at this time and they wouldn’t let us because they only allow tastings - that sucks

We had the BEST tasting experience with Ava! We felt welcomed by everyone and well received as members. I recommend making a reservation to taste.

Great sandwiches and wine
