We greatly enjoyed our visit with Cecelia and Enriquez Estate. The wine was fabulous and the time Cecelia spent with us was greatly appreciated. If you get a chance, it is definitely a worthwhile visit and you will leave uplifted by the story behind the vineyard.

Just the most perfect day visiting Enriquez Winery. Made an appointment for a tasting after being introduced to their wine at our resort. Just fantastic! The wines are all splendid and we tasted the wines in the middle of the vineyard. Became a club member…loved the story of how the wine came to be and how the journey continues…so glad we could be a part of it!!!

Six of us met at Enriquez for a tasting and we all got an individual charcuterie box with cheese, crackers, olives, dried fruit, nuts and honey. Our host was Meredith and she was delightful. I left with 2015 Tempranillo $54. 2017 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley $52.00 and Russian River Rose Non-Vintage $38.00. They are not set up for walk ins. Reservations are a must.

We had a very nice time staying at the Enriquez Estate property and chatting with the proprietor Cecilia over a wine tasting. The lodging was pretty simple -- not exactly "luxury" -- but was fine for a couple nights. I really enjoyed the wines here - especially the chardonnays. It's hard to not like the wines from Russian River! We recommend this winery in support of small vintners instead of large corporations. Nice spot, I hope Cecilia and the team do well!

Such wonderful property, people and tasting

Enriquez Estate was absolutely fantastic! Lovely location, excellent wines, and the hospitality was second to none! I particularly enjoyed the brizio, rose, and tempranillo. Definitely a must visit if you are in the area. Highly recommend!

Loved it so much we joined the wine club!! A small estate winery with excellent wines and great hospitality. Thank you so much for our great afternoon tasting - we can't wait to go back!

I've had the pleasure to visit the Enriquez Estate property as well as sample their wines several times and it has been wonderful!If you get a chance to visit their families property, it will be a treat to meet the staff and Cecilia as all of them are all in on the trade. It is definitely off the beaten path though and do not expect an elaborate million dollar tasting room, more so expect a country home vibe tasting out in the vineyards or their barn. I've been to quite a few tasting room and quite honestly, I tend to lean more so to the less pretentious wineries and Enriquez is a prime example of top tier hospitality. While their focus is mainly on Pinot and Tempranillo, they do offer some other low production wines. I was lucky enough where my good friend booked us a tasting the one time I visited their actual location and it was wonderful! We tasted through their entire portfolio and loved most of them as well. Of course I am a stickler for Tempranillo, so while theirs was good, I am just so accustomed to the bold Rioja flavor profile. Their Pinot's were quite good as well, but some were a tad expensive in my honest opinion, but small production sometimes comes into play for price point. Overall, it's a solid 4 out of 5 for me, but I do want to hit it as a revisit though!

Enriquez is a fantastic winery to visit. Rather than a modern, fancy expensive building, you get to sit in a beautiful outdoor space right next to their vineyards. Their wines are unique and fantastic across a wide range of prices. And Meredith is a wonderful host that will provide an absolutely wonderful tasting experience. Enriquez is my absolute favorite winery in the area.

I highly recommend doing the virtual wine tasting! My wife and I had a great experience and it was wonderful to speak with Cecilia Enriquez. It was a great to learn her process of the wine making and her breakdown of each wine we tasted. To top it of the wine was great along with the snack box that came with the package! Overall, this was awesome and my wife and I will definitely look forward to doing another virtual wine taste with the Enriquez Estate Winery!
What an amazing experience we had! I loved all of the wines and The owners knowledge and attention to detail and conversation was amazing! She does a great job - I joined the wine club and I I can't wait to go back!

We had such a wonderful experience at Enriquez. The wine was delicious, the weather was gorgeous, and the personalized experience topped it all off. We were able to enjoy our tasting with Meredith as our host, and she was truly exceptional. She was tons of fun and knowledgeable. By the end of our very leisurely tasting, we felt as if we had made a new friend. Thank you for that experience, Meredith; you are awesome! Do not hesitate to make a reservation to taste at this winery!

Meredith was super personable and treated us like royalty for our entire private tour. Lunch in the middle of the vineyard was preceded by a tasting of excellent wines; we bought the tempranillo, brisa, and a couple of others--delicious!We also stayed two nights in the Milk Barn, which is a completely renovated cabin with all the amenities. We purchased a lovely charcuterie box and a bottle of the sparkling red (excellent) and another red wine.There are two delightful farm cats, Salt and Pepper, who are so friendly they come running like dogs when you call.Highly recommended for a relaxing and beautiful weekend, a great base for exploring the many, many wineries in the area. Also enjoyed the Italian restaurant in Forestville for dinner.

Enjoy carefully hand-crafted wines in a beautiful setting. Host Meredith Barlin is wonderful and knowledgeable about the history, wines and greater location. Her generous hospitality was the highlight of a perfect day.

A beautiful place to enjoy delicious wines. Riley's Rose is bar far my most favorite and Cecelia understands what it is to be part of a small business and a community. With her help we were able to raise over $15k for some very in need non profit animal rescues. They came through with a HUGE donation for our silent auction and the support was truly invaluable. You guys are AMAZING and I tell people about you as often as I can get them to listen.
