How we score

The editorial take

Miramonte Winery's beverage program is anchored by a serious wine operation: a no-reservation Classic Tasting of six award-winning wines at the bar, and a $100 Guided Estate Tasting pairing eight wines with chef-prepared bites in the owner's suite. The bottle list spans 2020 Mem. Reserve to 2025 Albariño, with prices from $36 to $75.50. Wine club tiers add depth. Beer exists only as a staff request.

What should I order?: Start with the Classic Tasting (six wines, $25–$30) to survey the range. For a deeper dive, the Guided Estate Tasting ($100) includes eight wines with food pairings. Bottles worth noting: 2020 Mem. Reserve ($56) and 2025 Albariño ($42), both new releases.
Who will enjoy this place?: Wine enthusiasts seeking a structured tasting with award-winning labels, and those who appreciate a semi-private, food-paired experience. The wine club benefits may appeal to regulars. Not a cocktail destination.
When should I go?: The Guided Estate Tasting is a longer, more intimate option for a special occasion.
What should I expect to spend?: Classic Tasting $25–$30 per person; Guided Estate Tasting $100 per person. Bottles range from $36 for whites to $75.50 for the 2021 Est. Syrah.
What makes the beverage program distinctive?: A wine program with national recognition—Wine Business Monthly's Hottest Brand of 2023, Fodor's 'hippest winery'—and a unique guided estate tasting in the owner's suite. The Sol Society wine club was voted #7 in the nation, and the collection spans rare varietals like Touriga and Mencia.
