Sheehan Winery Old Town Tasting Room

Our hotel had given us a coupon so we figured we would check them out. I tried one of their flights and enjoyed most of the wine in my flight. Autumn explained our tastings and she was great. Took her time explaining the wines. They also sell some local beers and non alcoholic options. Even if I didn't have a coupon, I would recommend. They do not sell food, just some snacks.

Off the main square of Old Town, in a cul-de-sac of quaint shops at street level. There are other wine tastings around, so look for the sign. It's next to an Outdoor-wear Hiking store. Lots of seating. Attentive servers, well versed in the wines they serve and their own, Sheehan wine. It was fun to learn how they partner with local sports teams for a unique wine for the team.

Naomi & Lucy were most helpful at Sheehan's Old Town wine room. Helped me to make the best wine choices for me. Luckily found a parking place on the Plaza. Ended up taking home more wine than I intended. No downside to that decision, for sure. Disappointed that I will be out of town and not able to pick the grapes down in Bosque Farms. If You have never done it....give it a try. Not hard to do. Makes me feel like it's my Chamby. Meet lots of Yelpers as well!

What can I say that I have not already said over the past 8 years of reviews regarding my mostest favorite winery ev-ahhhh?!? Sheehan is da top shelf high grade zenith bad ma'am-a jam-ma of New Mexico nectar, and I may be understating the situation....If you've never heard Sean Sheehan share the "birth story" of this winery, or all of the delicate intrinsic details of the grape and its processes... you're missing out. It really should be on your bucket list. *Are we sure Sean wasn't part of "THE JASONS" brought over to the U.S. to work on matters of an "alchemical sensitive nature," and this winery is just his cover? Can anyone confirm or deny?!? Cause his brew is pure magic*Over the moon that this tasting room has opened in Old Town, and joining the wine club is really the only path, my friends. So many perks, and by far the most sensical way to stock your apocalypse bunker pantry shelves and secure your future happiness....am I right, or am I right?!?My recommendations? Well, Chambourcin is my love language, but let it be said that there is much more to be explored in the Sheehan-multiverse. The Cinsault Rosé is such a brilliant gem (speaking from someone who doesn't really do "Rosé") - that Tempranillo, tho...buenissimo! My most recent discovery is the Ollpheist - scrump-didly-umptious! And I also took home a bottle of the 2022 Cabernet Savignon on my most recent visit which was truly mahvelous, dahlings.I could go on, but I'm gettin' thirsty....Cin Cin! Salud! Sláinte! Cheers!

This is a cute winery located in Old Town Albuquerque. It is a bit hidden as are most of the shops in Old Town. There is no food here but you can bring food in from other places around, we did not do this. The person working on the day we went was fairly new so I am glad I had read the reviews before going as she really did NOT tell us much about the wines nor the wine flights. We did get 1 wine flight to share which I believe was called the New Mexico flight. The wines were good but again the person working really needed more training as the pours were not great. When asking what the pours were 2 oz or 3 oz she pointed to an imaginary line on the glass.

What a fun tasting room. The service was great. We appreciated the information shared with us about the wines. We ordered some nibbles... which were yummy. I wish we had real plates and utensils to use instead of landfill-bound items. Perhaps they can reconsider this as they do have a dishwasher... it would actually save money (and our planet).

If your looking for a local winery and a place to try a taste and see what you like, or what would pair good with a food. This place is a great start. It's located in Old town which is a great location. I walked in and got greeted right away, found a nice place to sit, plenty of tables and nice atmosphere. I was given a menu and a explanation of what each section to look for. Sweet, dry...ect. The menu had a good selection and choices. I picked 3 of the sweet wines. I was given a good amount to taste and along with the wine you have a choice to get a charcuterie to go along with the tasting. They didn't have the meat one so I went with the cheese, with some fruit, nuts and veggies which was fine. I liked all 3 wines but my favorite was the #2. Not sure what other places there are for local wine tasting but, I was happy to have tried this place first.

Friendly staff with nice wine knowledge. The location is big and bright, open with lots of seating. The wines kept our interest. It's a nice place to get apick me up.

Through our Yelp ambassador and fellow New Mexico resident Destiny L., I learned about the Sheehan Winery Old Town Tasting Room.Sheehan is the namesake of its owner with vineyards that I know of in at least Albuquerque and Las Cruces.Although I don't make it up to Albuquerque often as it is a 5-hour drive from where I currently reside, I ensured this was at the top of my bookmarks when I said goodbye to my daughters and ex-husband on 6/13/2023. I'm glad I did as Lucy, my server, was super informative and friendly!I opted to do the "Taste of New Mexico" tasting. It had five wines to select from which is $15 per person, but Lucy - who also organizes the book club here - offered to let me do a side-by-side tasting of both rosés.They also have a "choose your own flight" option with 6 tastings. If that does't suit your fancy, you can have a glass of wine or there were a couple of cocktails and I think beer that they offered.I had traveled to a few vineyards in Mexico and Southern California last summer. It is true that New Mexico wines tend to be on the sweeter side.Taste of New Mexico Flight:#1 - Gruner Vetliner. I really enjoyed this white wine. Gladly, I bought a bottle ($24). #2 - Dry Rosé or Semi-Sweet Rosé. As previously mentioned, I got to try both. I could not decide which I enjoyed more. #3 - Olliphiest. All I wrote in my notes for this one was "okay." Lol. Day drinking after being up since 5AM is all I can say.#4 - ELG Mourvedre. This one has grapes from the border of France & Spain, but they now hail from Las Cruces. I loved this red wine. It was good and smooth. I can envision a green chile dish paired with this! So I bought a 2020 bottle ($25).#5 - Red port or white port. I chose the red. It was too sweet for me. Should have brought snacks to solve that problem.It's a lovely little shop in the very unique, historic area of Old Town Albuquerque. Add this place to your bookmarks the next time you're in the area.RATING BREAKDOWNWine: 5 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: 4.5 | Price: 4
