Knowledgeable winemaker
Tasting is basically outside a small retail store. The winemaker answered all her questions with a smile. Nice experience reasonably priced tasting and some unique gifts in the shop. Definitely a dog friendly place.

Delicious
Friends
Becca was helping us....4 if us vivacious girls, some with less experience.
I knew my friends would love the spot as the wines are yummy, reasonably priced and their dog theme is just really fun.
We all ended up buying a bottle and
I actually committed and became a member. It is such a good deal. Very happy.
Thank you!

Call Ahead to Confirmed They’re Not “Closed for Lunch”
Couples
How disappointed were we when we arrived at 3:30pm this past Friday (07/06/18) to find a sign on the door stating “closed for lunch be back at 4pm.” Since their posted business operation times said they are open to 6pm we were shocked to find they were closed at that time. This was our last tasting before heading to the Oakland airport to catch a flight home, as it was highly recommended by friends who visited recently, and it was not an option to wait until 4pm. The lesson here is to call ahead and not depend on their posted times when planning a visit as they may randomly decide to close whenever they want without any consideration of visitors who plan their time based on their posted information. My wife and I were outraged and disappointed at the same time as we very much wanted to sample their wines since our friends were so impressed by their them. Apparently their business is doing so well they can afford to risk turning away visitors and future customers.

Mutts-Visit Winery
Mutt Lynch has consistently been recognized as one of the foremost dog-centric wineries in the U.S. A portion of their sales go to dog-related causes and their canine theme runs through everything they do. This was my first visit to their Windsor tasting room, but it will not be my last. From the dog sculpture (and two full water bowls) outside the door to the myriad of doggie curios throughout the tasting room, the dog theme reigns supreme. And about those wines: they are all fabulous (as it the atmosphere in which they are served, along with the tasting room staff serving them). Highlights are the reserve Zinfandel, amazingly smooth and approachable for a new release. The Chardonnay was also excellent, as was the Cabernet blend. Another highlight was the Primitivo, the neglected cousin of Zinfandel that is seldom produced in CA. After tasting Brenda's (the owner/winemaker, in the tasting room at the time of our visit) Primitivo, it's hard no to become a fan. All the Mutt Lynch wines are excellent values (especially by Napa/Sonoma standards). Very highly recommenced.

Nice, smaller winetasting
Much more personal winetasting experience than larger facilities. Nice location off Windsor Town Green, near many restaurants.

Underwhelming
Couples
Disappointing to say the least. I went in predisposed to join their wine club as I had read about it on their website. I thought the concept and charitable nature was highly appealing. We had set up a wine and chocolate pairing for 2 pm . We could tell early in the day we would need to push back and called to see if we could move to 4. " no problem, we'll let the tasting staff know " . When we showed up we were told " well, we were expecting you at 2 so nothing is set up. We told the older lady working that we had called but sorry for any inconvenience. She set up the tasting and left us on our own at that point. Zero descriptions on the wine and nothing remotely resembling even casual conversation. Absolutely disinterested would describe it best. I had read a previous review on google which was similar to our experience and had discounted that as an outlying event. Sadly, not so .

Friendly

For any winery to be walking distance to my house, we are lucky, because this one is really nice. The staff is always very friendly, whether it is a holiday weekend or not. Dogs are welcome, and they sell many fun dog/wine trinkets, gifts. Always feel welcome there, and the wine is good.

Our first stop on the trip, loved it!
Wines were good, reasonably priced and staff was friendly.
Also had delicious little bites.
We bought one of their blends.
The wine maker was present and kind enough to take a picture with us and sign the bottle. Will be back!!!
