La Serenissima Vineyards & Winery, Warner Springs CA

My family and I had an exceptional wine tasting experience! The variety of wines offered was truly delightful, with each one presenting a unique and robust combination of aromas and flavors. We experienced notes of strawberry, cayenne pepper, and smoky honey to peaches and grapefruits, and even sherry – each wine had its own distinct personality. Each sip was a delightful surprise, and the unexpected combinations made the tasting truly memorable.

Our host, Tony, was outstanding. He not only answered all of our questions with enthusiasm but also went above and beyond by providing us with an insightful tour of his cellar. The passion and artistry with which he described the winemaking process added a special dimension to the experience.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time. This winery is a hidden gem, offering not just remarkable wines but also a unique and enriching experience for wine enthusiasts.

Off the beaten path but Tony and his wines makes it worth it. Definitely bring a picnic as the store in town doesn’t have charcuterie fixings. Tony will edumacate you on wines, his grape varieties, Italy, and Southern California. Plan to spend at least an hour. Beautiful landscape and sitting areas. Wines were delicious and we bought a dozen.

We visited this winery twice in 3 days! First, my husband and I stumbled across it and had such a fabulous experience that we returned with friends. Tony is the real deal. It will be the best tasting experience you’ve ever had and we absolutely love the wine! The grounds are beautiful. Plan on a couple hours and settle in to enjoy what it used to mean to visit wineries. You won’t regret it!

I have never enjoyed a winery more than this one. The wines are top notch, the winemaker, Tony was fun to hang out with and the grounds were lovely. We were with a group of friends and everyone loved not only the caliber of the wines but the experience as a whole. Many in our group joined the wine club while on the spot. It’s an experience not to be missed and we’ll definitely be back!

Pleasant moments speaking about these two words: Wines & Life and try it to make one word!

If you like wine and are looking for an authentic wine maker, Serenissima is a great place to go. I like to avoid the touristy places and try to find the hidden gems of San Diego county's wine scene, and this one is certainly one of the latter. Tony, the owner, is clearly very passionate about his product which I have a lot of appreciation for. He took the time to talk is through every wine. He offers Italian varietals for his whites, which is very unique in California, but also offers the classic Bordeaux grapes for his reds, that you find in most wineries in California. I really liked the Cabernet Sauvignon, the Merlot and the Arneis. He also has a very interesting rose. Don't go here if you're looking for a pretentious experience or are checking out wedding venues, go here if you're into interesting wines made by someone who has passion for his product.

Fantastic! Excellent wine. Beautiful surroundings. Anthony is an amazing host. Thanks for an awesome experience all around!

What a unique and fun experience at the La Serenissima Winery in Warner Springs. Tony was a fabulous professor and an entertainer of all things wine and grappa. We’ll come back back soon! Grazie Tiso!

Thank you Tony for sharing your fervid fascination for wine, as well as your vivacious personality and charming conversation. It was an experience to remember and we'll see you again. Xxx Katie and Tim
