Atmosphere was a bit cold and honestly was a bit dirty inside. Tasting experience was pretty surface level. Wine was produced off site at a different location but was really looking for a higher quality experience and wine. Overall bummed took the time to stop when was limited on time and so many other options to experience.…

MrrMatthew, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I’m sorry to hear your visit wasn’t up to expectations – yours or ours. We pride ourselves on offering a great experience to each of our guests and listening to and learning from their feedback. We agree with you, there are many wonderful wineries to visit in Dry Creek Valley and we want to continue to be one of them. We invite you to give us another chance next time you’re in the area.

When I researched wineries for our recent trip to the Healdsburg area, I was immediately drawn to Amista's wine and food pairing because the food sounded special while not offering over-the-top, unusual bites that we would not make or eat at home. We made Amista the first winery stop of our trip. When we arrived, we were greeted warmly and seated at a table outside that was set to welcome my husband and me. Tammy took such great care of us! and we enjoyed chatting with her very much. The food pairing was lovely and delicious! Shrimp, meatball, salmon, chocolate, etc.. and the wines were great. The best part was experiencing wine that was perfectly suited to foods we love. The big surprise was when I tried the Illusion dessert wine with dark chocolate and cranberries. I do not care for sweet wine, but this wine was fruity and delightful with the chocolate. We made it one of our purchases from Amista and I can't wait to share it with our (also not sweet wine lover) friends, along with dark chocolate, of course! We took our time and enjoyed the peaceful view, and when we finished we walked 'the loop' around the pretty vineyards. It was a lovely experience from beginning to end, and we will visit Amista again on our next visit to the area.…

Barbara, we are pleased you enjoyed our wine and food pairing. I especially loved hearing that we succeeded in creating pairings that real people would make at home. We hope you have fun sharing Ilusión and dark chocolate with your friends.

What a great experience! Lovely location, friendly staff who were also very knowledgeable about their wines, and good wines. Small winery that specializes in sparkling wines, of which my group bought many.

We visited during the Winter WINEland weekend, January 13-14, 2018, and they were pouring delicious zins from 2013, 2014, 2015 plus some other wines. Everyone was very friendly and helpful and it is a beautiful winery. Other wineries visited and enjoyed over the weekend: J. Rickards, Papapietro Perry, West, Zichichi, Martorana, Mill Creek, Armida, and Porter Creek. And we stayed once again in our favorite Glen Ellen at our favorite Jack London Lodge and gratefully they survived the October wildfires and are doing well. Do not be afraid to visit the wine country. It's as wonderful as ever!…
