Great place with great owners and staff. A wonderful place (weather permitting) to sit and relax outside to enjoy good music, wine and food! During "Music on the Ridge" seasons, they provide fans during warmer weather and heaters & wind breaks when the weather is chilly. Good family atmosphere. The food trucks are an added bonus.

Very nice afternoon there. We were on a charity motorcycle ride, arrived to Amber Falls Winery with plenty of parking, tents to sit outside with tastings in tent, huge fans to help with the heat. Indoor wine tastings and gifts in the cellar. My husband found 3 wines he liked so the product was good too!! Definitely worth the trip!

We love Gumbo Sundays. Can not be e how this event has grown. Sort of wish it wasn't as crowded the way it was when it first started. One suggestion, have the music from the band piped to the room upstairs in the building. With so many people saving tables and seats there is limited seating under shelter it would be nice to hear the band when you are upstairs.
