    This is a nice tasting room off the main street. We ordered a red and a white flight. I enjoyed the Rose. They ask if you have reservations but it was not crowded.

    Spectacular wine tasting experience. You'll want to join the high energy atmosphere with regular fun events to enhance the warm welcome one always receives by the Four Brix team.

    A wonderful winery with a great restaurant. Very beautiful inside. Friendly staff. Great to go up the stairs and look down from above into the giant barrel rooms! A very special place.

    This is by far the best winery in Ojai and just about all of their wines are organic. The staff are excellent and the tasting room is cozy and intimate. Truthfully I've never been much of a wine drinker, I spent years as a brewer and never really found any wine that I liked. After the 1st time visiting this place and drinking two glasses of Arts and Crafts and one glass of the Rose, I was hooked. We bought a couple bottles and enjoyed them at our hotel after as well and low and behold, no hangover. After my fiancé and my 2nd time visiting we became club members and honestly I haven't had a bottle that I didn't like. I guess it helps that the wine is organic and they (usually) don't add sulfates.

    My fiance and I got engaged in Ojai, where I proposed on a hike overlooking Ojai and the bottle we drank to celebrate the moment was the Rose. So needless to say Casa Baranca will forever be a part of our story.

    Great place to share funny time with friends and families. This place is hidden from the street but when you find, you will enjoyed a lot, the will be so fast.

    Is no so expensive but, seriously i felt confortable. Christine is a very good host. The stick bread you can buy there are delicious but also if you want, you can bring your own food. Us bought a pizza and our experience was awesome.

    Cantara recently started making its own craft beer under the Flat Fish Brewing Co. label. Great decision! We sat down for a flight of the six beers that Flat Fish currently produces and they were all good to excellent.

    My personal favorites were Bounce Ball (British Brown) and Amber Jack (American Amber). My wife’s favorite was Long Drift (IPA).

    If you get a full flight, be sure to order something salty (chips, chocolate covered pretzels, etc.) to cleanse your palate.

    Cantara’s wine is also available at the same, small storefront. Next time!

    Unfortunately this place is now closed. Used to be across from the restaurant Winchesters. The winery is still producing but they don’t have a tasting room anymore!

    Katie and Scott are friendly and knowledgeable. Mary and Justine found out the welcoming atmosphere. And that is BEFORE you get to the amazing wine! They also host special events and Sunday Fundays to add even more fun to your visit.

    Their wine is excellent and Diana was so accommodating. I tried and bought the Moscato and Beautiful wines which were very unique and smooth. Will definitely go back.

    Love this little gem of a winery. Such a nice relaxing getaway. Customer service has been excellent the last few times we've been. We enjoyed the wine too. You can order lunch and get it delivered or bring a picnic lunch. Peaceful place and would be a beautiful venue for an upcoming milestone celebration.

    Such a cute place for wine tasting! Had a Groupon for flights for two with a cheese plate and a hummus plate and two glasses of wine. Totally impressed by the wines, the food, and the staff. Highly recommend if you're in Ventura.

    Unique and really good winery! My husband and I really enjoyed our visit to this winery. They have unique takes on wines that were amazing! The owners are personable, and we enjoyed chatting with them. We went on a brewery and winery tour of the area, and this was our favorite!

    I used to like this place in pre-COVID days. BUT, things have changed. And from my perspective NOT for the better.

    Back in the good old days, the atmosphere was casual. No need for reservations to listen to music. No cover charges (which their website fails to mention by the way, at least as of 7/8/24). Today, it can be $10 per person and possibly more. Since wine by the glass will cost you $15 minimum (or more in most cases) and by the bottle it can easily exceed $60, I don't see the need to add on $10 per person charges for things that used to be FREE like local music.

    What used to be a mostly open patio, now is surrounded by a tall wooden fence. Keep in mind that this place is in an industrial area and is behind a stone/slate business so noise should not be an issue. The patio is now enclosed with tables setup in a strict linear pattern. Far too much structure, but it fits with the $10 per head fee for music.

    True to form, they still are 95+% red wines. They do have a rose at the moment, but who knows for how long. So if you prefer white wines or at least having the choice, this is not the place for you.

    They use the slogan, Toast The Train. This refers to the fact that the property is right next to the railroad tracks and as trains went by and often blew their whistles in the old days, you were supposed to toast them as they passed. Well with the enclosed patio, you no longer can see the train as it passes. Nice touch!

    And people (the two owners specifically), you own a winery that attracts customers (both current and new) to your location. So you are customer-facing. Try to smile once in awhile. Try to be courteous to both those you know and those you do not. We can do without the indifferent attitude and scowls.

    The good news for those of you who have bothered to read this far is that there are alternatives to this place in the Ventura and Oxnard areas - ones that are quite good, have local music (FOR FREE) including some of the bands you'll pay $10 or more a person to see at Plan B, have a more balanced selection of wines, have lower prices AND are actually friendly. So my advice, go to "PLAN C" - other wineries.
