“5 stars for Sam, our host, who is the nicest person we met in a very long time! Also 5 stars for the wonderful Pinot Noir we were served.Before Longoria wines moved in, it used to be Wine Therapy. While we didn't like their wines and service, the ambiance was a lot cozier and the couches very comfortable. The new decor is beautiful, but it is a bit cold and the rounded couches are extremely uncomfortable and narrow. It is not something we want to sit at for a long time (something interior decorators should pay attention to!). Also, when we asked for cheese and crackers, we were told they ran out.We want Longoria wines and Sam to thrive and stay alive, so hopefully they can bring some warm lighting to the place and comfortable seats!“
“Even though I would've driven right place this place nestled in a semi-industrial feel location. Overall, this is exactly what I would expect of a wine tasting. Tasted 5 different wines from the reds and roses. Our server seemed very knowledgable about the different wines. I know nothing about wine and appreciated her suggestions and insight. While I was hopeful I'd be wrong, I knew the chardonnay was going to be my least favorite since I have yet to find one that I like... from any where.It was a super chill patio experience. Apparently this is a popular place for dog owners to hang out with thier pups. Inside was live music but everyone still hung out on the patio because of either the dogs or the weather.The cheese board was a nice compliment to the wine, the nuts and crackers were helpful after my 2nd wine. It would've been nice to have some additional options for those who can't do cheese or have nut allergies. Ended up purchasing some of my fav, the Sauvignon Blanc (2022) and can't wait to share it with friends!“
“Grassini Family Vineyards exceeded our expectations! The service was exceptionally friendly and nice, making our visit memorable. We opted for the Estate Flight and Chocolate Pairing, a delightful combination of their exquisite wines and perfectly paired chocolates. The outdoor seating provided a lovely ambiance, enhancing our overall experience. A stellar choice for wine enthusiasts seeking not just great wines but also exceptional service and a charming atmosphere.“
“I had come to Valley Project several times since working in a tasting room down the street but had one visit back in July that left me very impressed with the wine and customer service. Jason was my server that day and after joining the wine club, we have enjoyed every visit to their tasting room and look forward to Jason's hospitality every time. The wine is great and atmosphere is lovely, Jason goes above and beyond to provide us with excellent service every time we visit.“
“One of our go-to places when visiting Santa Barbara. We've been coming here for a while now and have been on and off and on again members. It's not one of those winery on the vineyard types, just a small operation that makes wonderful wine! I'd also be remiss if I didn't mention how friendly their staff is.“
“Amazing place! Really felt at home at Jamie Slone Wines. Lindsey did an amazing job of making us feel welcomed and cared for on a particularly rainy day in Santa Barbara. She gave us some great insights into wine tasting and recommended a really interesting book that she uses to evaluate wine. Really homey vibe and great staff that went the extra mile to make our experience special! Only disappointment was not getting to meet Jamie himself who is apparently working the bar quite frequently.“
