Jenny took care of us on Heather’s day off. We couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful experience. Super relaxed, delicious wines, cozy and welcoming. We had a wonderful experience at Stonehouse cellars

My family has been going up to Clear Lake since the 70’s. I haven’t been able to get up there as much as I’d like, but was able to spend a couple post-Christmas days at the lake house with my wife and in-laws. My sister, who gets to the lake far more often than I do, recommended Stonehouse Cellars as a spot to visit…

I’m in the wine business – been in wine retail and hospitality for over 20 years – so I know good service and hospitality when I experience it. I can say that we had an amazing visit at Stonehouse.

The tasting room is fantastic – beautifully designed and appointed – very welcoming and comfortable. Has amazing views. We were there on a cold & rainy day and so were not able to walk the grounds or sit outside, but I looks like a great place to hang out, rain or shine.

The wines were also very impressive. We shared 3 flights and got a few extra pours, so we tasted 15-20 wines. I was most impressed by the Cabernets. What I enjoyed the most was doing the Cab flight, which allows you to taste 4 Cabs side by side that were aged in different types of oak. Very informative!

What made the visit so special, though, was our hostess, Heather. She was friendly, welcoming and amazingly knowledgable about, not only the winery and wines, but the history of the area. She wowed us with her passion and knowledge and her multi-faceted talents – pastry chef, scientist, opera singer – all rolled into one. She brought all these skills to the table (pun intended) during our tasting visit. She even allowed us to check out one of the guest rooms – highly recommended.

As a parting gift, she sang us a song – in Italian! We had a choice between Italian or French – went with Italian. Is there anything Heather can’t do??

What a memorable visit! We’ll be back and highly recommend you visit as well.

Recently spent a fabulous weekend at Stonehouse Cellars. The entire house is upscale yet relaxing and comfortable. The accommodations were sophisticated and luxurious. The rooms and bathrooms are good size w excellent amenities. Whether you want to relax on the patio and enjoy the view, BBQ, enjoy the fire pit, relax in the roomy and comfy family room, visit the llamas and sheep, stroll through the vineyard, cook in the kitchen (which is a chefs dream), this is a great place to go on your own, with family, or a fun weekend with friends. Thank you Greg, Jake, Daniel, Mike and Dena for making our stay so wonderful.
