Reviews for Shadow Mountain Vineyards & Winery in Warner Springs, CA
My wife and I stayed one night in one of their bungalows and had a great experience. The owners, Alex and Pam, were very... friendly and hospitable. The wine was delicious and they even prepared us a little breakfast before we left the next morning.Beautiful place and a great stay! Read more
In the shadow of Palomar Mountain, this is a hidden gem! Our favorites were \"Old Gus,\" from a 90 year old vine. Nothing old... about the body and flavor!\n\nFor a real treat, try their sparkling rosé. Reminds us of French champagne. Seasonal and hard tofind sometimes so call ahead to make sure it\'s in stock. You won\'t be disappointed! Read more
The first time I experienced this winery it seemed wonderful. It was during Covid and I hadn\'t been out in a while. It was... Spring. I arrived right as it opened and the owner was pouring tastings outside. The wine didn\'t really have much body orcharacter, but the surroundings were beautiful. Her art was on the bottle labels, and her artistic touches were found throughoutthe grounds. It was cool, and a quiet, peaceful place to enjoy a glass of wine.\n\nI returned this past weekend, and the groundsseemed to have been let go a bit. It was the weekend after Easter, and there were still plastic eggs sprinkled about the grounds(tacky). The umbrella over the table in back was visibly tattered, but that was just symbolic of the whole place. What once wasa unique use of things like a painted bike and a bath tub on the grounds, now just looked junky. Still, it\'s a beautiful area.But with so-so wine and service, and no investment from the owners, you\'d be better off checking out other wineries with betterwine.\n\nMy guess, is that the owners are close to retiring. And it shows. Read more
High quality wine selection and delicious Chardonnay cheese. Welcoming staff and a wide outdoor seating area with views to the... vineyard and the mountains. Such a magical experience. Highly recommended. We\'ll be back. Read more

July 2021. Sunday. Around 1PM.\nThis our 3rd of the 4 wineries on the North Mountain Wine Trail - in as many weeks.\n\nThe crowd... was light, which allowed us a more personal experience. We met the owners Pam and Alex - both were most gracious andhospitable. Pam filled my glass of wine knowledge to a new high level. So - prepare to learn as well as enjoy.\n\nThe settingand scenery were relaxing. The breeze cooled us on one of the patios as we\nenjoyed a glass of Viognier along with our picnicbrought from home.\n\nThey were having a contest on naming the artistic metal hostess. I thought a good idea was MaryJane -because her head was a pot.\nWe\'ll be back! Read more
Pam is a great host. She and her husband have owned the winery for 30+ years, are very knowledgeable about grapes and have a... delicious variety of whites, reds, a bubbly and rose. Great spot for a bring your own picnic. Pam was wearing a mask whilegiving us a wine tasting and there was hand sanitizer at the entrance. Very relaxing large space with lots of shade, a breezeand a cute family of humming birds. Read more
My girlfriend and I stopped by this magical place yesterday. It was something out of a fairytale. Everybody was very friendly,... even the people outside enjoying wine next to us were friendly. The bathrooms were very clean. I could?ve stayed all day longjust looking out at the beautiful mountains and enjoying some live music. I would make the trip here from the city of San Diegoany day. It is so much better than going to a busy winery in Temecula. I can?t wait to go back! Do yourself a favor and supportthis business!! It is a little getaway tucked in the mountains with some delicious wine. I even got a bottle named after my dogGus! Read more
