We had such an amazing experience at Working Dog Winery and absolutely loved everything about it!🤩🤩🤩 This place is truly dog-friendly - dogs are not just allowed, they are genuinely welcomed. There’s even a food truck for people and a separate treat truck/store with goodies for dogs, which is such a thoughtful touch. You can bring your own chairs, small tables, and blankets, set up on the grass, and really relax. There’s plenty of outdoor space, but you can also choose to sit indoors if you prefer. Bringing your own food is allowed as well, which makes it perfect for a laid-back picnic-style day. We brought our own wine snacks and made a beautiful charcuterie board, then enjoyed a tasting of five white wines. Every wine we tried was delicious! We loved it so much that we ended up buying a bottle to take home, along with some tasty treats for our dog from their shop, which sells their own wines and dog goodies. The atmosphere is relaxed, welcoming, and perfect for spending quality time!😌 We highly, highly recommend Working Dog Winery and can’t wait to come back again! 🐾🍷✨
The experience was very good and the service excellent. We did the wine tasting. Loved their wines specially the Ugly ducking
We threw our elopement party here & could not have asked for a better experience. Sharon, Amanda, & Carlee were all so easy to talk to through the planning process & even more helpful the day of (along with their team of amazing people who helped set up!) The party went smoothly, everyone loved the wine, & we just had the best day. Outside of the event, we’ve been here with our pup to enjoy the lawn & love it every time. Cannot recommend them enough, so we just keep bringing all of our friends & family around!
I recently hosted a summer party at ‘Working Dog’ and it could not have been a more perfect experience. Beautiful vineyard views, great staff and the wines are fantastic . The space was perfect for mingling, and the relaxed vibe made it feel really special. Highly recommend for group events or just a fun. Special thanks to the owner of the winery, Amanda. Mike was super helpful.
We come here often and love the place. We are dog people and love the dog friendly environment. Bring your chairs and food and taste some delicious wine with live music on weekends.
