Such a beautiful place to spend a few hours with some delicious wine and snacks. They have a patio with large tables and umbrellas where you can order from the tasting menu. Redwood trees are in all directions yet the view is wide open across endless grape vines. A "sense garden" (If I am remembering the name correctly) is situated... More

We were staying at the Farmhouse Inn and came here because it was one of the wineries on their "partnership list" (aka waived tasting fee, yay). The wines here were pretty wonderful - their chardonnay is definitely special as are the dessert wines. The intricate label design on the bottles is also some of the most creative and detailed wine... More

Picked this one at random whilst driving through the area. The wines were very good and quite reasonably priced. Tasting pours were generous. The gardens outside were very pleasant and we were able to enjoy our picnic to the accompaniment of a bottle of their excellent Chardonnay.

We were here visiting Thursday 1-3-13 around 3pm and the young lady conducting tastings was amazing. She was so knowledgable and made me and my partner feel very special. This is a great place to stop in and visit..... Don't miss it.

If your wine tasting adventure takes you down westside road from Healdsburg to Guerneville (and it really should) you must stop at VML. The wine maker, truly talented Virginia, specializes in Pinot Noir but every wine I have had there has been great. Wines are an exceptional value and every time I bring friends there they always find some to... More

This winery is not to be missed, the grounds are breathtaking and Larry was extremely knowledgable and had us take our wine as he took us to the crushing barrels and gave us a little education on their processing of their wines! Jenn was a wonderful employee as well and talked a lot about their wonderful wines and their sister... More

The gardens are beautiful with lots of herbs and fruit trees. The staff was fun and knowledgable. The wines were good. The gardener suggested we try some almonds off her trees, delicious. They also had great recommendations for activities and dinner.

Lovel rich dessert wine with just the right amount of sweetness. Though not really lovers of Chardonnay, their 2010 Russian River Chardonnay was a keeper.

We loved it so much that we became members and we don't do that very often. Delicious wines, really nice place, awesome service and great prices. Not to be missed if you're in the area.

I have been to VML many times, and every time I am very impressed. The second time I was in there the Tasting Room worker remembered my name and treated my like a wine club member. Beyond the customer service, the VML grounds are beautiful, the tasting room is so modern and clean. On Saturdays they do free Tri-Tip along... More
