My husband and I were exploring with our 3 kids today and stopped here. We had a wonderful time! We tried 3 red wines and they were all excellent. We enjoyed the charcuterie selection albeit pricey. The best part was how welcoming the staff and owners were. Bob was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the wine selection. Lynn was great with my kids and she even let them help her with some horse duties. The kids had a great time and we enjoyed it too! The prices are higher here than most places but the adventure (and high-quality wines) made it worth it. We would love to come back and hang out with some friends soon.

Our group truly enjoyed the wines, atmosphere and Caleb who served us. He was very knowledgeable about the wines and history of the establishment.

We were enjoying some wine this weekend and saw the owner yelling at a group of patrons who had children playing by the pond and in the two shallow ditches that were not roped off. Its refreshing to see children enjoying the environment, but unfortunate to witness especially during a time when compassion and understanding should be infectious. They should consider closing the area off.

We loved this winery so much we returned today with our daughter. The French style wine is amazing, we were at the pre-grand opening of the new tasting room for the pick up party. We loved the patios and outdoor seating in the olive grove. The live music and valet parking was a touch of class.

Dont come here with any children. We had several kids ages 4 to 7 and they were playing by the pond area. The people here are not tolerant to children messing around. If you have the type of kids that sit on an iPad and read a book youre good. If you have kids that run around and play, beware. They will not tolerate it and will yell at you. The owner basically gave us an ultimatum and told us to leave. Im pretty reasonable about our kids. They arent angels and they arent devils.. they are normal active boys. This was a disappointing experience and I hope you can go there with a understanding of what kind of establishment they are running. Single people with no kids will be welcomed, otherwise find someplace else.

I went wine tasting for the first time today. Every winery around the area was great... But I have to say, Domaine Artefact absolutely stood out. The staff was very friendly, and the wine guy (dont know the technical term) was extremely knowledgeable. He not only knew the wines, but also the science behind their flavors. Overall a fantastic experience.

This is a recent boutique vineyard and winery in the area (first planting 7 years ago, first wine sold 2 years ago). The wines were excellent! The owners were doing the tasting and were so friendly that they gave a tour out into the vineyard for anyone interested. We bought the Roussane and Grenache wines.
