Great wine, I had their cab. Nice people working here with a down to earth vibe. Great artisan pizza by "A Pizza My Life" and wonderful atmosphere!

Happy we stopped here!We did two wine tastings and a wine slush. Per the server recommendation, we did half rose half Zinfandel and it did not disappoint! We mostly loved that it was not overly sweet, a perfect balance.To top it off their fall decor was a nice touch!Also, they have different events going on such as live music, we’ll definitely be back to check them out!

Relaxing location for a wine tasting stop out in the countryside. You MUST try a wine slushy. The owner was available to chat with. She's very charming. We'll be back for certain.

This place is a gem! Loved the wine, the people and the facilities. We had a large group event and we contacted Smokin Barrel about three weeks prior and they were the most helpful and accommodating business we have ever dealt with. They asked what type of food we would like so they could hire a local business and we decided on wood fire pizza by “A Pizza My Life” which was also amazing.Do yourself a favor and give Smokin Barrel a shot and you will not regret it.

Great wines and awesome owners! I highly recommend checking out this new winery in the Loomis area. They have recently added a wine slushy club for those who enjoy a different wine experience.

Great outdoor wine tasting venue. Super nice people with fine wine. Soul food truck was an attractive addition.

Overall: underwhelming, bland service, but inexpensive. Unfortunately, the place FEELS cheap. I'm no fancy wine connoisseur, but I've been to my share of wine tastings in the Napa, Jackson, and placer areas, as well as wine tasted at amazing vineyards in Argentina and Chile. This is the first winery I've been to that the server had zero information to provide us on the wines. She just said the name, poured a TINY sample, and walked away. Such an awkward experience. There are so many wineries in the area, this one fell short. The plus: it's a beautiful property, and the drive there is also very pretty.
This was only our second visit, not that we haven't tried to get back sooner. Good wines, really nice Barbera. Cab Franc was good, too. Mitch, the owner, was making the rounds and it was good talking to him. Ashley kept the wine coming and we enjoyed talking with Jo, Mitch's m-i-l. Ashley talked us into joining the wine club and looking forward to some wine and winery events.

This place is adorable and the gowns that serve you are just the best. It's a small place but those wine slushies are out of this world. Get the "mixed" one and thank me later.

Sweet discovery! Boutique winery; good atmosphere; friendly, welcoming! I recommend their tasting flight and the rose wine slushie!!

Definitely a great place with great wine. Enjoyed the relaxing environment sampling their delicious wines. Ended up taking a few bottles of Barbera home :)
