Scratch Wines

“Went to a live jazz performance here. Great small venue, relaxed vibe, and knowledgeable staff. Great wines, too! The space was clean, well maintained, and with a modern, but almost retro-60's feel. The wines are classic Monterey - Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from the Salinas Valley and SLH. But Sabrine Rodems, the winemaker (a very busy girl in these parts, making wines for many of the local labels), also does varietals from other nearby AVAs, like Paso Robles. Recommend.”

“I love this stylish wine tasting room in Carmel Valley. Lots of abstract art and designer lounges. The space is tucked away in the back of Carmel Valley Village. Sparkling wines and pinot noirs were delicious. They also offer food pairing: charcuterie plates with salumi, cheese, nuts and olives. Our host Anthony helped make the experience even more memorable. I’d love to bring a group of girlfriends here for a wine tasting birthday party in Monterey. There’s also a patio for outdoor wine tasting.”

“I went on a Tuesday and was the only one there but the hostess, Maria, was still very present and took good of me. Fun wines, my fav was probably the brut rose and the standard brut sparkling wine. Beautiful tasting room”

“I’m not sure who was happier between my dog and myself at Scratch’s tasting room. All the wines were absolutely delicious, and the service was phenomenal. My dog also got the VIP treatment enjoying treats and a complimentary bandana. One of my favorite tasting rooms in Carmel Valley.”

“What a gem! The space is beautiful and comfortable. Scratch has an eye for design and for fine art. The wines are off-the-charts wonderful, from delectable bubbles to uncommon varieties and blends to classics like Grenache, Pinot Noir, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The staff are warm, friendly, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. Scratch was the highlight of our trip to Carmel Valley.”
