Our family lives less than a mile from Wise Villa and decided to drop in this past Saturday for a tasting. We understood that there was construction happening as it was visible, but a simple statement about that would have been nice. Instead the greeting staff was very confused about seating. Finally we were set outside at portable tables in... More

Went there this past Sunday. Sat and waited for help for 10 minutes. We were doing a tour at 2 which ended up being more like 3. That part was ok but when you walk in it would be nice for someone to explain how it works. To many customers not enough staff. After the tour ( which was great!)... More

We purchased a local 2 for one coupon to tour and taste at Wise Villa Winery. The drive was beautiful and the scenery, breathtaking. On a side note we purchased their Zinfandel at Costco prior to purchasing the coupon and found the Zin to have great potential if left to age a few more years. We were excited to taste... More

I like Zinfandel from Lodi. I like the people who make good wine. I have gone to Wise several times. The wine is only average. The large tasting room seems always vacant. The owner is less than gracious and seems to believe that a minor degree in botany makes him both a enologist and a great vintner. The view of... More

Placed on the top of a private hill, in the foothills of the Sierra Nevadas, with a great view of the whole Sacramento valley is the palatial Wise Villa Winery. Their new tasting room has a beautiful view of the valley, including a perfect sunset. Beyond the perfect location and the perfect tasting room, is their award winning wine. Our... More

First let me say that wine tasting is not my wife's favorite past-time, so when we find a wine she enjoys, we count ourselves very lucky! Tucked into the hills of Placer County, Wise Villa is a wonderful journey's end. The staff was extremely helpful, personable and knowledgeable, but it is the variety and flavors of wine that ultimately prompted... More

If ever experiencing the Placer County wine trail (highly recommend), Wise Villa Winery is one not to be missed. Once you turn off Wise Rd, and through the gates of the vineyard, you are immersed into a new environment. Go slow up the hard gravel road lined with vines to the right and the Tuscan style villa to the left.... More

Very nice place.... the wine is great (and plenty of it - they serve from three separate vineyards) and the staff is friendly. This is a great find, since it is close to Sacramento; on the way to/from Tahoe; and is laid back (not as expensive or snobby as so many Napa wineries are). They are building a new tasting... More
