Bella Luna Estate Winery

There are several wineries in the area but this one has left an impressionable mark on our small group. We popped in a few years ago just because we were in the area for another event. No reservations, no nothing, we just pulled up without the desire for a pretentious experience. We got welcomed like we were family. We left the event having exchanged contacts with the owner. This is an amazing place, family owned, great wines, great people. Put it on your list if you really want to go to a winery that actually gives a shit.

Fantastic wines and service.

Still have my champagne glasses from 2001!

Reservations are recommended as it gets quite busy. Pets are allowed as well!

I recently sponsored a rescued horse and her baby at Unbridled Sanctuary in upstate NY. I was given the honor of naming her and I chose Bella Luna. As a fundraiser for the care of all the equine there is going to an auction where a basket will be created for each rescue. I needed to find the right items to put in her basket. What a WONDERFUL SURPRISE to find a winery in California that has the same name. I researched reviews and found so many positive I immediately bought one of the beautiful reserve bottles with the signature name along with wine glasses, cork puller and stone coaster. I look forward to the winner of Bella Luna’s basket to enjoy this wine

Bella Luna’s wines are excellent top to bottom! Their Sangiovese and Piccolo have become our go to wines for most any occasion. Love visiting the quaint family owned tasting room and winery, their warmth and friendliness make us feel like family!

Really enjoyed my visit of Bella Luna. First of all, the wines are great! I'm generally a red guy, but they had this white wine that they aged in a concrete "egg" (it's actually shaped like an egg, he showed us the contraption in the back) that was super crisp and refreshing. We ended up buying two bottles, looking forward to popping them open in the summer. The reds were also tasty.
On top of that, we really loved chatting with Lucas the winemaker there. Besides being extremely knowledgeable about wine, he regaled us with stories about the history of the winery and his own personal anecdotes. One thing that I liked about this place is that they put a lot of heart into their plants as well as their blends. Lucas showed us the test tube he uses to try out blends, and he's not afraid to be a little non-traditional with his mixing.
At one point his kids came into the room and handed out little oranges to everyone there. The oranges were delicious.
In terms of the ambiance, there's a little table outside and a few small tables inside, but this place isn't particularly big. Definitely a small, family run vineyard, and it has the hospitality of a small family run place. We will definitely come back. Highly recommended as a stop on any wine tasting trip!

Our favorite winery! Small, family-owned, dry farmed - the very best Sangiovese around! (All their other wines are great, too!) Friendly folks, beautiful surroundings, wonderful events.

It's a lovely place. It was so good they learned history. This is a place I want to visit again. Thank you for the best wine.

Outstanding family owned winery. All of the wines were very good, with the Sangiovese and the Zinfandel being our favorites. The tasting room was very nice and comfortable, and Lucas was a fantastic host, making us feel welcome and sharing some great stories. We’ll definitely be back!

A great small winery with a lot of it's own vineyards. Mostly working on Italian style wines. Well crafted, small production, worth a visit..
