Villa Creek Cellars
Reviews
Great wines made with passion. The winemaker sources grapes from some of the best vineyards around. Always something new to try. Taste them all in town at the bar at Villa Creek restaurant if you want before you drive out.
This is one of the most diverse collections of wines from a winemaker, Cris Cherry, who's known to simply have one of the finest palates in the industry. His restaurant of the same name in downtown Paso is brilliant, as well. Don't miss the Garnacha and the High Road. His white wine is terrific, too.
Staff are cordial, but pushy like used-car salesmen and made me feel very uncomfortable. Tasting ($10) and wine ($45+) are expensive and overpriced. Each $10 tasting is only comped if you buy $270+ of wine (6 bottles). Unless you have money to burn, skip this one. You get far better taste and value at many nearby places.
The wines produced here by Chris Cherry are as wonderful as the environment they have created at their restaurant, Villa Creek.
We were told of it by recent Cal Poly grads at L'Aventure two years ago. We were joined by a family of three and I suggested we taste outside. It was incedible. Everything that was poured was so well done we purchased all that we tasted and a couple that were not. We will return this weekend and are more than ready to taste this years offerings. P.F.
