I was instantly impressed when we drive up. Over 7 acres of vineyards and 2 access of homestead. There is plenty of shade with comfortable starting where you enjoy the delicious wine and view of the vineyards.
This was my first visit to a vineyard ever and Im glad I chose Grant James. The staff is amazing, especially Jacques! The service was out of this world and the wine was Amazing!! I am still here as I am typing this because I am so blown away by the service that I have to received. Thank you again Vineyard Grant James!! You guys are awesome.
The wine was delicious, and the atmosphere was incredibly endearing. The staff made me feel like I was a part of their own family, and I genuinely cannot wait to visit here again! Thank you for the amazing time (:
I am happy to report that I have had the most friendly and educational experience at Grand James Vineyard. Jacques, the owner, was very inviting and warm upon our arrival. Being a vino, having visited Napa Valley, Paso Robles, and many other wineries, I have found this winery as one of the best wine tasting and touring experiences as I’ve ever had. I highly recommend this establishment, my significant other and I had such a great experience here!
The wine was good the location was pretty the patio was great and the dogs were so cute and will behaved
Delicious wine and awesome view!
Great little boutique winery. This is not a big, fancy operation like some in the area. Frequently, the owners are serving you, and you can discuss the grapes, happenings, even life in general.Never tried one of their wines that wasnt delicious. The have live music on the weekends to make relaxing on the patio mote enjoyable.Whether you have a tasting, or a bottle youre always welcome.
Amazing piece of heaven and great local wine! Come try it, you’ll love them, their atmosphere and service. You’ll feel right at home!
Wine was amazing, Volantis was my favorite, service was great as well. Quaint, relaxing sitting area. Mom and pop feel. Jacques was great and friendly. My only suggestion is to change the music to something more wine tasting like and not Spanish merengue or salsa. I am Hispanic and hear that music often so having some relaxing music would add to the experience. Still giving it 5 stars because it was a good experience and we used a Groupon which they accepted with no issues. Keep up the good work.
Excellent wines! Suzanne and Laurie were such a joy to be around. Loved the atmosphere. We joined the wine club.
Enjoyed a tasting out on the patio. It is very dog friendly. Great service overall. Barbara was great and gave us some snack mix and our pup a biscuit.
Beautiful setting and amazing wines. And, I absolutely LOVE the jalapeno sangria!!
A breath of fresh air after all the huge commercialized Temecula wineries. All family owned and operated, yet still five star wine. Great opportunity for a trip to the “country” if you’re fro San Diego. Bring a picnic and your dog (they are VERY pet friendly), and enjoy beautiful spring day wine tasting!
I really enjoyed everything about this winery—the wine, the family, the scenery, the dogs, etc.There is a charming, comfortable family feel. The owners are so nice and so friendly! I definitely will be coming back here and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice and relaxing time (whether or not you drink wine).
Great Winery. Wine, patio, and staff make for a wonderful experience. Also good live music sometimes.
We had a lovely time at this winery! The owner Susanne is such a wonderful woman, she is the winemaker and grape grower as well! I loved their Phoenix and Malbec. Highly highly recommend.
Great customer service and delicious cheese balls. Love that it has such a family owned feel. Highly recommend if you want a nice day in the Vineyard and also want to support small businesses.
Okay this place is awesome. I purchased the yelp deal $10 for $20 before I left and had no problems redeeming it. I had one tasting which was no charge since I bought a bottle of their Super Tuscan blend. Most of the wines in the tasting set were too sweet for me, but the owner kept coming by and pouring me tastes of off-menu wines. The outdoor seating, the two guitarists performing, and the lovely garden provided a fantastic relaxing atmosphere. Will definitely come again wih a picnic lunch. Local Ramona eateries will deliver there as well. Loved it.
Amazing service with great wine! The owners are lovely as well. Additionally a great view accompanied by adorable dogs :)Will definitely be making return visits to this great venue!
Amazing ambiance. Spicy jalapeno Sangria is surprising and delightful. Beautiful views and with a sweeping breeze. Great place to hang in the afternoon!
Love that this place is so dog friendly. They gave my dog water and a little treat while I enjoyed my wine!
The wine, people, and atmosphere are the best! If you’re looking for a fun and relaxing afternoon, Grant James is the place to go! The Jalapeño sangria is amazing!
They have such a diverse range of wines! I’m a big sweet wine person, so their “off the menu” Rose was perfect for me. My fiancé loves their Volantis. I can see why they are the #1 winery in the area!
Best wine in the area. Friendly service and music. Id highly recommend making this a premier stop if trying wines in the area. Best wine out of the 7 wineries we tried. However try multiple...dont just rely on my unexpert review!
Loved their new release Cab! We will definitely be coming back.
Amazing hospitality and yummy wines! Dont miss this! You will love every moment! Thank you!
We are from Rancho Bernardo, so it takes same amount of time for us to go the vineyard at Temecula or Ramona. We always choose Temecula due to the number of options we have it there.This is the first time we been in a vineyard at Ramona and we are very glad we did. We were here for friends Birthday Party. I was pleasantly surprised at the atmosphere here. Kids had lot of fun running around the fields.Really good wine, great ambiance, and really nice knowledgeable and friendly owners.Top WinesThey are known their good red wines/* Barbera is the best Wine: clove, lengthy finish* Syrah* SangioveseHighs* Great Wines* Great location if your are going on Ramona side.* Great for watching the Sun Set, high on the hill.* Outside Ranch Atmosphere is greatLows* No FoodI will go there again for great wines, good atmosphere and amazing powners.
Spent a Sunday afternoon at Grant James and absolutely love this place.. bought two bottles of the Volantis.This place is a must when you come to Ramona or San Diego
Had a geat time with very nice wine, wonderful personal service under the shade of their patio cover while enjoying the breeze and hillside view.
What a sweet time we had here!Loved their Merlot and Malbec! 10 out of 10, would recommend!
Awesome vineyard, Great Owners, Superb Wines!♡♡♡ Open Fri-Sun, after 12 Noon to Dinnertime at 5 or 6pm. Enjoy the pergola seating, relaxsing view.Vineyard Grant James Ramona Ca off Old Julian Highway.
Great winery. Awesome people. Beautiful view. A must visit.
Best people. Outstanding wine across the board ..and a very peaceful location...you wont regret visting and tasting and the plus are the owners !!!Great people
It only took my husband and I one visit to Vineyard Grant James for us to decide to become members, and we are SO glad we did! This is now our favorite spot to take friends and family who come up the hill, and anytime we have a free weekend evening, you can usually find us here. Great wine, great people, and great views - what more could one want?! Save yourself from the drive to Temecula and check out all the Ramona wineries instead - they are truly hidden gems!
As always, a great ride, 200 miles for a glass of wine.
My first time going to a wine tasting and it was delightful. The owner was very friendly and gave out great advice for us newbies. Her daughter was kind enough to be our photographer for a short while and even posed us and suggested which areas were best for photos. With our groupon purchase, we were given 5 tastings and a sixth of our favorite of the 5, which was a fabulous deal. My favorite was the Phoenix and Volantis. You must also try the cheese ball! Each bite and sip of wine had a burst of sweet and cheddar goodness!It was such a nice getaway from the busy city and I very much enjoyed sipping my wine and viewing the scenery.
Super Great. Love that Winery.
Flavorful wines. Owners are Gera!
Simply the best.
