Santa Fe, NM · $$
Founded in 1984, Gruet Winery specializes in Méthode Champenoise sparkling wines. Family owned and run, the New Mexico-based winery produces Pinot Noir and Chardonnay-based sparkling wines and a small collection of still wines, with roots originating from Gilbert Gruet’s Champagne house in Bethon, France. More than 25 vintages later, Gruet Winery has achieved unprecedented acclaim and remains a favorite of the nation’s top sommeliers.
“I’ve been a long time fan of Gruet and it was fun to visit the tasting room. The $20 flight fee is quite reasonable and the pours are generous (although I spit when I taste). The one mistake I made and always forget: let the wines warm up. When served chilled it’s hard to differentiate between the (same varietal) offerings.”
“What a beautiful place😍 Special shout out to Autumn! She was very knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions that we had about wine. She made our trip to Santa Fe a memorable one🔥”
“This is a great spot for visitors and locals alike to experience really good NM wine. The atmosphere is fancy yet casual at the same time with a truly celebratory feel. Alli is fantastic, really knowledgeable about the wines, as well as friendly and fun. So enjoyable to visit with her and taste the different wines they have to offer as well as the yummy bites to accompany the wine!”
“Wines: high quality wine from French grapes in New Mexico. I love their options and especially fancy their Savage line. Vibe: nestled in the gorgeous and historical St Francis hotel near Cafe Pascual, this wine bar could not check more of my boxes: vigas, beautiful bar, great seating options, good beats Service: Alli is my favorite human. I’ve followed her from another wine bar to Gruet and she makes that experience even better. She is knowledgeable without ever seeming snotty. She is funny and kind while also having great recs for wine snobs like myself. Thank you!”
“What a lovely tasting room. The wines are just fabulous. I've always been a fan of their sparking wines but my eyes were really open to the gorgeous still red and white wines they offer. I couldn't be more impressed. The service was warm and friendly.”
