Blue Fox Cellars In the Valley Wine Tasting Room — Attraction in Monterey

Came here with my husband on our honeymoon, and this was our last winery stop for the day. So glad we did, but upset that it wasn't the first place we visited. We had the whole place to ourselves (because it was a Tuesday afternoon in a small town probably), and the owner did our tasting. He is the chillest dude. We spent I don't know how long there tasting every wine, and the entire time was spent with engaging, hilarious, and insightful conversation between the owner and us. We were told the history of each wine, and how it compares with other wineries in the area. It didn't come off as pretentious or one-uping, as it did confirm what we heard about the other wineries when we visited them. He also offered advice about nearby trails and local spots along hwy 1 to eat that is less pricey than the more touristy restaurants. His wines were unlike any wine I've had before, you can tell he cares about the product. So glad we spent our time here. And yes, we did do that hike! Definitely come here if you are in Carmel Valley, you will not be disappointed, and if you are...there's something wrong...

Updated review! We went back again and perfect as ever!!

Absolutely perfect day!!! Our server Will was personable and extremely knowledgeable. The ambiance is idealic. Birds chirping light breeze and sunny! Great patio in a park like setting! As great as everything else was the wine did not disappoint!! So often the elegant tasting rooms have so so wine. Blue Fox Cellars wine was the best we had had all day! And varietys you can't get elsewhere. We took several bottles home. A definite must go...

I love this place. Truly great wines and the absolute best person offering tastings. Grace is our girl! She's passionate about the wines and she's just a great person. She really adds that personal touch to your visit and she knows and loves the wines on offer. I can't wait to come back (all the way from Las Vegas 😎) to spend some more time talking about wine and chilling with Grace. Just awesome! Happy to be in your wine...
