Great foothill wine tasting in a comfortable family space around a nice pond. Large trees to provide shade and large grassy areas with tables to enjoy a glass or two of wine or a picnic with your family- or both. Join the wine club for great discounts and access to great wine and events. I hope to see you out there.
Love this place. The sangria is amazing and it’s dog friendly during Covid. Highly recommend ◡̈
First time here, gorgeous views !
Met friends there about a month ago and was really impressed with their wine and ambiance. Loved their signature Sangria. Had a great time and will definitely return!
It was busy when we came. The rain brought lots of people inside. The seating was limited and with the event going during our visit it was even more limited. It was a great blend of tasting and this included sangria...parking is limited...the restroom is outside of the actual tasting room. They have about four tables and four stations of seating with furniture. The tasting is 7 p.o. with five wines and four sangria choices.
Lovely place to enjoy their incredible wine selection in an emblematic cave. Theres also a pond you might be able to see.Im from Spain and this place really reminded me of my home country.
Saw the Ghost Quartet. It was an intimate arena for such a play. We shared a bottle of wine before the play and it was superb...Im not a big red wine drinker, but the red wine we had was one of the best Id ever had...not smokey or oakey... very smooth on the palate with a touch of fruity plum. The facility is handicap accessible, very clean and cozy, with the wine tasting being in a cave. Delightful experience and will return....suggest others do, too!
There is no other winery that I would go to besides Vina. It is a household name with my family because the wine holds such meaning for us. Not only is it the best tasting wine in all of Auburn and surrounding areas, the owner is a TOP NOTCH woman. There are not enough great words I can use to describe this fantastic place. Go check them out.
Excellent beautiful setting
Amazing wines and great staff
Lovely local winery specalizing in Spanish style wine. Absolutely lovely grounds. Gazebo by pond for tasting in fine weather. Otherwise tasting is in wine cave. Selection of tasty snacks. Tapas at times!! Did I mention great wine!!?? If you dont have time for a trip to Spain, here is your best shot.Note: they often exhibit art work by local artists. Some of it for sale on site.
Came here based on the reviews. Many of the reviews speak very little of the wine quality, they place an emphasis on the makeshift cave. Having traveled the world and having sampled wines throughout varying regions. The Wines we sampled at Vina Castellano were mediocre-at-best and definitely a major disappointment..... This could have explained why there were so few recent reviews. Never mentioned the $7 wine testing fee for such mediocre wine. Normally when a winery has blends, its to compensate for their inability to attract the purest. Blends provide for much more profit. I would never recommend this place to my wine connoisseur friends.
This place is PHENOMENAL! I went here while back from New Mexico visiting my family. Let me tell you, Sharon is INCREDIBLE! She is such a hoot and so much fun. She explained all the wines to us extremely well and was so fun and kind! Will definitely be back the next time Im in town and so looking forward to their wine club! Thank you Sharon!
Cool cave! Lovely atmosphere, nice long driveway through the vines. Good Spanish wines. Snacks available and some wines served with chocolate. $7 for tasting
Love coming here & doing some wine tasting while picking up our wine club. The cave & the pond have the best atmosphere!
Amazing cave! The wine and location are spectacular. Especially their Sangria! So worth a visit!
Lovely cave wine tasting, the sangria was refreshing and best we have ever tried. Looking forward to the next time we return for tapas and wine!
Lovely location, friendly staff, nice facilities and delicious wine and food.
Fabulous wines.. Fabulous staff.. Fabulous venue!
They have a wine cave and the grounds are beautiful to visit in summer. The staff is extremely knowledgeable. The wine is expertly made in the Spanish tradition. It is a family owned and run operation with a legacy in Spanish wine making. Wine club members get the added benefit of private events including; outdoor movies and tapas tasting parties!
Lots of fun out here. Such an awesome place for families and couples. Gave me lots of activities and exiting ideas for get togethers!!
What a find~a MUST experience!!! Great wine and tapas in a casually elegant atmosphere. The friendly staff gave excellent service. Will definitely do this again.
This place is my favorite. Extremely hospitable and superior customer service. Great selection on Spanish wines I recommend the garnacha and the tempranillo
Excellent wine (all wines) and great friendly service!! We will keep coming back!
Paid for tasting but the pour was so short it was tough to really taste. Wine seemed decent but overpriced. Will not go back.
The Syrah was delicious and grounds accessible.
Super friendly service, great ambulance and even better wine.
We really like this place. Owners are friendly and very down-to-earth; the wines are wonderful and different from those at other wineries in the area.
Great wine in a great location - served by friendly people. A bit off the beaten path but worth the drive!
Winery has not lost its luster spectacular and some awesome handcrafted wines are among the best in all the Placer and Nevada County‘s.️
Amazing wine and amazing people!
Friendly staff, great selection of wines, a pond to sit around while eating cheese platters! I loved the wine cave the best!
Great hosts, great neighborhood winery with Amazing wine and a cool gift shop
Great atmosphere... the wine was very good and so were the people
Lovely spot! Fell in love with the little chihuahua, Pulga, and walked away with a tasty Garnacha
Best Tempranillo on the planet!!
