Cavaletti Vineyards — Restaurant in Moorpark

Awesome experience, so glad we discovered this! Refreshingly unpretentious tasting room with great wines and fantastic people. Michael took great care of us, was very knowledgeable and genuinely friendly. Met Patrick the owner briefly, who was very welcoming with it being our first time in.

Appointment encouraged? Check. They even let you know that they tasting room is kept cool at 65 degrees so you can come prepared.
