- Sonoma CountyApril 18, 2013Buena Vista’s founder, Count Agoston Haraszthy, arrived in Sonoma County in the 1850s and planted some of the state’s first European varietals, laying the foundation for the Buena Vista Winery.Upvote6Downvote
- Tania MartinezJuly 2, 2016Great tour (history, good wines, and excellent service). The decoration is a little hipster for my taste but adds a great personality to the winery.Upvote3DownvoteUpvoted Oct 6
- Lisa ZaengleinFebruary 21, 2017Wine tasting is currently $20 per person for the non reserve, not $10 like others tips. Still a good value for $20, as the wines are pretty good.Upvote3Downvote
- Arthur MitchellMay 13, 2021The new french owner destroyed the old California vegetation and feel of this winery. This was a true national historic site. He installed phoney glitz and destroyed history. SadUpvoteDownvote
- Elaine LawsonNovember 10, 2015One of the oldest vineyards around. Be sure to go when they have a wine sale. You can get great bottles of wine for $5 to $15!UpvoteDownvote

- herm pugayJanuary 21, 2015The oldest winery and the first one in California! Founded 1854 and ground zero for the wine industry! Wonderful tasting here.UpvoteDownvote
- The Dijon clones Chardonnay is the best I've found in either Sonoma or Napa and merits a stop all on it's own, but it's only periodically available.UpvoteDownvote
- Ashley MeadDecember 9, 2015Tome for the experience, stay for the wine. The Sheriff might be the best red blend in Sonoma.UpvoteDownvote
- Jason NeelDecember 1, 2013Great Winery! First Winery in California and has been recently renovated. Very nice experienceUpvoteDownvote

- Jonathan HanenAugust 2, 2013Talk to The Count. He knows his varietals and vine stalks.UpvoteDownvote
- Maddy LockAugust 19, 2011Our server was awesome, but while we were purchasing wines, some guy came and told her to go wait on another party. She said she had to finish w/ us, but he said they were "important." What a douche.UpvoteDownvote
- Paul LomaxAugust 28, 2013Interesting history (although the founder sounds like he was a bent as a 4 dollar bill!), but pretty average wine. Over priced. You're paying for the landscaping.Upvote1Downvote
- Come visit and do a taste and tour with The Count!UpvoteDownvote
- Rob Pat The Traveling ScholarAugust 19, 2011Apparently black people don't have green money..After a wine tasting, I was ignored for an extended period of time. I was about to place an order but decided to leave due this awful treatment.UpvoteDownvote
- Bill HDecember 29, 2010Nice place for a picnic. That's the only nice thing. Bad Chardonnay, very rude service.UpvoteDownvote
