joseph filippi winery

Inland Empire, not Napa / Sonoma. So lesser quality, but lots of history to read about in the casees. $5 for 5 tastes or $15 for reserve tasting. Sunday BBQ vendor serving $14 2 ribs 1 hot link 3 sides. Add a bottle of Cab Franc and head outside. Nice enough.

Great room with plenty in the cases to read about local area wine production history. you can do a $5 tasting of 5 pours or $15 for reserve pours. Wines were decent, not at the higher levels from the NorCal wineries. Sunday at 2pm they had BBQ provider on site. $14 for 2 ribs, hot link, greens, mac/cheese, baked beans. Grabbed a tray plus a bottle of cab franc out at the picnic tables. Would come back and do some more exploring,

The staff is good and the gift shop has some unique pieces. The museum has apparently moved and that was sad. There is plenty of parking and the tasting bar is well stocked by knowledgeable staff. I am not a wine expert, but I found the wine not to my liking. The gift shop is expensive. It sort of reminds me of a tourist trap, but not as tacky.

So unfortunately I disliked the wine here. It all had weird tastes. Maybe I am a wine snob but this to me was not at s good. That being said, I really liked the actual tasting area. It was like a Rancho history museum and had some cool things up on the walls. That is the saving grace of this place.

This historical winery is a must visit and purchase center. The staff is knowledgable and affable. The wines are of the best quality and the excellent prices are a big plus.Wines are an individual taste item - for me the Pilippi Winery is TOPS!

Expected a family-run wine experance. Discovered a tourist shop selling everything wine related. Local wines were MUCH more expensive than fine German wines from the wine-goods.Unless you enjoy the apparently overpriced red wines, there is not any reason stop here.

looking for something to do while vacationing in the area and stumbled across this winery and now a wine club member. Can't wait for my next shipment. The service was atmosphere and service was great. Somewhat a Napa/Sonoma feeling but in a neighbor setting.
