Very cozy and great customer service. Wine tasting was perfect and we ended up buying 7 bottles of wine. Definitely recommend!
Great service and amazing local wines. Went on a Sunday afternoon with friends and was impressed. I would suggest skipping the charcuterie as it’s pretty basic - summer sausage, pickles, olives, some fruit and cheddar cubes. Seemed like some basics from King Soopers. The wine tasting, though, was fun and helpful. Even grabbed a bottle to go for a dinner later this week. Definitely recommend as a start for a drink before dinner or just for drinks after work even. Great atmosphere.
OMG this is a must-stop for any wine lover. The gentleman that served us was AMAZING! His personality and hospitality really left the biggest impression on my friend and I. The wine is also fantastic (so much so that we ended up leaving with 7 bottles) and paired with bread and oil or the charcuterie board really was the frosting on the cake.
My wife, family, and friends were in Colorado for the first time and stumbled upon this place. The experience was one that we will truly remember. The wine tasting was excellent as there was a nice selection of native notes to choose from. The star of the show was our wine expert, Justin. He was very gracious, witty and informative. He made our vacation excursion 100 times better. We will be telling all our friends about this place.
We came in during a winter storm and had the most excellent service. Matt handled our party of 4 with grace while also juggling a busy pop of customers. Great wine. Great snacks. One of my favorite stops in Old Colorado City
i was walking around looking for a nail shop when a man comes outside and says “free wine tasting” i thought he was lying for a second, but i was on my way to get my nails done so i came back after that and they do have complimentary wine for you to try which is cool. i ended up getting a glass of wine and a small charcuterie board, i wasn’t a big fan of the board because i didn’t like the raw sausage and also he gave me swiss cheese because one of the cheeses i wanted wasn’t cut open. swiss cheese is just the worst cheese to me and how could the guy know that, i wish i could have gotten more fruit tbh but the great thing about their board is the delicious bread, it was a wayyyyy better touch than crackers. that bread was fluffy and delicious. whenever i come back to colorado springs, i’ll be making my way here because i still want to try the kakac (spell check) cheese. i recommend everyone to come in and enjoy a delicious glass of wine!
Called ahead to make sure they offer wine tastings. Normally when I go to winery’s for tastings they serve you it at your table but here you have to go up to the bar & try 5 complimentary tastings (which is really nice that they’re free), then you choose which one you want to purchase, glass or full bottle. I personally just prefer to take my time at my own table doing tastings/chatting with my guests so that’s my only complaint BUT really good tasty Colorado made wines!
My husband and I went there a few years ago - pre COVID - and the wine was OK. What you expect from a local winery. I went back there this past August (2022) and it was some of the BEST wine I've EVER had (and I've had a lot from all over the world - I lived in Germany for 5 years and spent time in Chile). I was both amazed and thrilled. I immediately signed up for their wine club and bought a case. I will be going back for more this week (October 2022) for another case. I HIGHLY recommend this place for exquisite reds. Very pleased. They nailed it!!
Abbey was awesome! Come see her and taste some awesome Colorado wines! On the fruity / sweeter side with some great flavors!!!
Awesome customer service! They made us feel like family! The wine was so good we had a hard time deciding which bottles to buy! The food was really good and reasonably priced. We will definitely be back when we return to Colorado!!! Thank you for a great experience!!

This was a perfect stop for lunch with my daughter. We loved the coffee and warm soup on a chilly rainy day and the sandwich was fresh and delicious. The staff was so kind - we will be back - I’m looking forward to doing a wine tasting!
How do I even explain how much fun we had there!! Susan, Matt and Abby were the best! The hospitality was unbelievable! We are from Kansas and will be back at least every year! Make sure you go see and enjoy the snacks and wine!!!
Wonderful wine tasting and really beautiful interior! We loved the wine and the person who helped us out was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Must check out if you’re in Old Colorado!
An amazing place!! It's not to be missed. Friendly people & so knowledgeable. Ask about a free tasting. Matt & Susan, thank you so much. We will be back!
One of my favorite places so far in Olde Colorado City. Stop in for a complementary wine tasting, they have white, fruit, and red wines all made by the Vino Colorado Winery. Bottle will run you $20-30 which is nothing for a good bottle of wine and a fun little afternoon. Try the bread and oil plate served with oil and vinegar and a vinaigrette. Simply thrilled with the entire visit, chill atmosphere, the friendliest service, and just not enough good things to say. ?
