Fantastic French inspired cuisine and great wines to match. Not much of a red wine fan but this place made me one! Recommend the Syrah

Presqu’ile is one of my favorite wineries in California. The wine was superb per usual, especially the sparkling and new releases of the estate Chardonnay. The food was divine as well.Alex and Katelyn were so helpful and knowledgeable when I was asking them questions about vintages and the estate wines. I can’t wait to return.

I usually don’t post reviews on restaurants but Presqu’ile is an exception. This place is such a gem. It’s upscale without being pretentious, the wines are delicious and the food is even better. Suspiciously affordable for wine country standards, and it’s only suspicious because this is the best winery I’ve ever been to — and I’m from Santa Barbara. Chef Julia (I think that’s her name?) is incredible; never met the woman but I know what she does is magic. Tom provides amazing service. The Scandinavian architecture, coastal California feel and elevated atmosphere has something for everyone here. No complaints. 10/10. It’s giving more than we could ever ask for.

I dropped by Presqu’ile on a rainy Thursday and wanted to leave a review of the food tasting and our server (Tom). Tom was an amazing host with our group, taking time to explain the wines, the history and the flavors we could expect. Tom’s warm and welcoming energy set the tone for a pleasant afternoon and food and wine tasting. I was a bit worried that as a vegan, I wouldn’t be left with much to eat, however Presqu’ile really delivered there as well! The chef and crew made sure I had plenty of options and communicated to me what dishes I could and could not eat. They even separated them out on a different platter for me. Of course the view from the tasting room was stunning, caping off a wonderful afternoon!

Id been wanting to visit for decades (literally) and finally made it down to Presquile - Ive been missing out!!Checking out the machines during harvest was an extra special treat (thanks to the back of house crew for being so accommodating!) and Matt is our new gold standard for every winery host: our glasses were never empty, we never felt like hed disappeared, but we also had some time alone to talk about the wines, soak in the view(s) and happy-cry over the delicious food accompaniments. THE CHEESE!

My fiancé and I made the trip to Presquile from Santa Barbara and it was the most amazing experience thanks to Tom! He spent so much time with us (even after closing) telling us about the grounds and selecting wines specifically based on our likes and dislikes. We will most definitely be back to see Tom and can’t wait to bring our family to experience presquile as well!

This was such a nice experience! This visit was sometime in February, so it was a little chilly but being in the sun was warmer and very nice. Went around noon for a nice lunch and some wine with the food/wine experience.The wine was fantastic! I’m not even one that loves wine, but I was blown away by how delicious all options were. The food was also amazing and was inspired by Asian cuisine we were told. Couldn’t have asked for a better selection of food items. Also added the charcuterie plate, which I’d prefer to see some changes; maybe more olives and the menu said there were figs on the board, but didn’t get any.Our waiter was nice but didn’t talk much besides asking if we were local to see if we wanted to buy into the wine club. Otherwise there was a waiter from Pennsylvania (same!) that I listened to at his tables and he was so personable and friendly. He even came to say hi to us and talk about being from PA!

We visited Presquile yesterday for an afternoon tasting. We have been to many wineries over the years, and this tasting venue is by far our favorite. The structure and seating space create a wonderful environment, and the energy was so positive and welcoming! We ordered the Farm Mezze Picnic for food, which was absolutely fantastic! A beautiful presentation and the food was delicious! The wines were also wonderful, especially the Chardonnay and Pinot Noirs made from their estate grown grapes. The owner also came by to say hello and share a bit of history of the winery, which was so nice. We highly recommend a tasting here - you wont be disappointed!
