The experience is better than the wine. Good to go to with friends or if you appreciate natural wines.

Great wines, in the homemade Italian tradition, made with mostly grapes from Colorado. Wonderful tastings with very good sommeliers and supervised by the owner, John Balistreri and his family. Really good food for lunch and nibbles. I could wish they were open at night, but maybe it's a part of the charm that they close at 5pm!

Great quantity for price and the bartenders are all great fun!

I just want to give this place the BIGGEST review. My brother brought me here and i can honestly say, I am beyond impressed. Janet was so insightful and professional, let alone sweeter than the wine. Shelby, the manager was very comforting and had a handle on the business. Laura was very attentive and knowledgeable on the food menu. Zach did his thing. Compliments to the chef! 😘

Balistreri is the absolute best! I just had my wedding here and everything from start to finish was perfect. We worked with Mattie (we love you Mattie!) and she as really great to work with from touring the venue to the wedding day and everything in between. We loved the family vibe of this venue and all of the staff are amazing. We had so many guests come up to us during the reception to tell us this was the best wedding food they had ever had. Thank you for everything Balistreri! (photos by River and Root Photography)

Three Generation winery serving lunch and dinner. We started with a wine sampling flat, lunch, and dessert. My shrimp was perfectly prepared, and the strawberry parfait was very good. The portions are small, and a bit pricy. They also ran out of menu items. I was excited to sample the wines, but was disappointed in that the flavor palate was not distinguishable. For example, hints of strawberry and all I could taste was an acidic taste. Still, it was exciting to experience a winery right in Denver! I would try them again.

My wife and I got married here and we had a great experience throughout the whole planning process and event! Mattie and her team were great to work with, the space is beautiful, the food was fantastic, and of course the wine is great!
We did a tasting where we stood at the bar. It was very noisy. Every time another couple came they just moved us down the bar.

Such a fun Denver gem! The $10 wine flight is such a steal and the wines are all-natural and delicious. The patio is gorgeous, and the seasonal food is honestly just as good as the wine 👏. It’s only about 10 minutes from downtown but feels like you’ve escaped the city. Highly recommend booking the $20 tasting too — you get to try 15–20 wines which makes for the perfect afternoon!

Lovely family-owned winery! Nice outdoor seating area to have a wine flight. If you primarily like regular white wines, there might not be a lot of options for you, but I enjoyed everything I tried. The nebbiolo and syrah were especially good.

Wine tastings at Balistreri are always so pleasant! And their food is amazing. Being a member is so special.

I visited Balistreri Vineyards today for the first time and It was a wonderful experience! Everyone was so nice, the bartender who provided my tasting was very knowledgeable and made great conversation! The wines were amazing! I have grown into more of a dry pallet and even working in the wine industry myself, Balistreri still had a few grape varietals I had not explored before! The Cherry salad was very good to finish. I had the intention of buying a bottle for home, but left with 3. Thank you for a great visit to Colorado and to your vineyard! I can’t wait to visit again!
Great service
