Clif Family Enoteca

“We did the Wine and Food pairing. Keegan was an amazing host who explained the wines and processes for making them exquisitely. The food was delicious and abundant. Two of us could not finish all of the food that we were given. Although we thought the presentation of all the food at once was beautiful, some of the food got cold because you couldn't possibly eat it all while it was warm. We highly recommend visiting and trying this family's wines.”

“The Cima tasting was out of this world. Chef Magnus put together food pairings with their farm and local vendors that went perfectly with the side by side wines Clif produces. The stunning backdrop only enhances the overall experience you take through the valley. Mickey not only cares about what he pours but tells the story behind them and takes you through the wine making process. Always a 10/10 time at Clif!”

“After such a stressful week, this wine tasting experience complimented with yummy bites, was exactly what I needed. Mickey was extremely knowledgeable and made sure our group had a stellar time and left full and happy. Clif always puts their best foot forward in everything they curate, most specifically their food. I will be back for those delectable cured bacon 🥓 and soft boiled caviar egg. Thank you Chef Magnus for all of those yummy bites 🤤. Highly highly recommend this experience!”

“Absolutely amazing place! We did a wine tasting and lunch which were both excellent. Our highlight of the experience was our host Mickey. He was extremely personable, knowledgeable, and passionate about the vinyard. The food was equally as memeorable, thanks to the incredible chef magnus. Overall, I would highly recommend visting Entoca vinyard.”

“Gorgeous setting and delicious food, but could improve their personalization. I’ve been a member at Clif Family for years and finally splurged to try their Enoteca Pasta e Vino experience. It is a 5-course luncheon with wine pairings hosted in their private enoteca overlooking the vines, complete with a personal attendant and private chef to curate the experience. The food was delicious, the wine selection was superb—including their Howell Mountain Cabernets (Cold Springs, Croquet, and Cima)—and the private room was the perfect intimate space. It was such a relief to have a private area where I didn’t have to worry about disturbing other guests while having an infant in tow! However, I’m giving this experience 4 stars instead of 5 because it felt surprisingly generic for a winery that typically excels at personalization. In advance of our reservation, I was sent a questionnaire requesting our music preferences and celebration details, but neither were acknowledged during the visit. Why ask for that information if it isn't going to be used? It felt like a missed opportunity to make the experience truly magical. Overall, it was a good experience with top-tier food and wine, but I expected a bit more of that "Clif Family magic" when it came to the details.”
