Engelmann Cellars

My second time here. First time was 4 years ago for the chocolate and wine journey only to return again years later for the same event. This was our 3rd stop. To be honest I wasn't to excited about it since the last time I was there, there wasn't a whole lot going on. But boy did they step it up from 4 years ago. There's plenty of parking. When we entered there were so many people and live music going. So many beautiful decorations and places to take photos for IG lol the staff that was pouring our drinks was very kind. They had a variety: reds, Chardonnay and beer. The ones we tired were delicious. They had many local shop and food vendors laid out across their outdoor area. The restrooms were nice and very clean. My party and I had a great time and ended up staying longer than expected.

We came here for their Friday night outdoor concert. What a perfect venue. The sound is by Mike of Wizard Sound. It is absolute PERFECTION! He is constantly walking around to make sure everything is balanced and that the acoustics is spot on. If you haven't been here, you need to hurry! There are only 2 more concerts. Next week is supposed to be AMAZING! Friday October 20, 2023, THE ULTIMATE 80'S CONCERT EXPERIENCE with Fasttimes!

Wow! What a wonderful place to spend a Sunday afternoon! I'd been to Engelmann's a few times back in 2016 or so, but most recently visited on a Sunday in June. Beautiful, huge grassy area with trees for shade to spread out in your own chairs or picnic blankets. No charge on Sundays. That day there wasn't a food truck so we brought our own snacks. There are some tables a available to use as well. Since the last time I was there they have added a really nice bathroom. The indoor tasting room and bar looks amazing! Nice and cool on a warm summer afternoon. I tired their beautiful rosè, delicious! Their bottles/labels are stunning. Besides wine they have Coca Cola brand canned sodas, hint water, and a few more options. They also have beer on tap! A few snack options as well, great variety of chips, cheese platters and crackers and these awesome chocolates! Great service and set up. I'd love to come back very soon. Short drive from Herndon and 99 area.

I was really disappointed at my last visit to Englemann for the Bruno Mars tribute. I have been several times over the years and thoroughly enjoyed myself. However, some people are now freely smoking pot with no one to monitor it and it is out of control. There is a designated smoking area for cigars because of a cigar booth, not a fan, and it was clearly announced during the intro to please stay in that area. But it is not being observed either. I witnessed several people smoking pot, vap cigarettes, and cigars in and around the audience all thru the night. The pungent smell of skunk weed was everywhere and annoying. I nor my guests will not be returning. Very disappointing.

Engelman Cellars has a great venue! Lots of green grass to spread out on and tons of shade. They had a couple of food trucks, but I ate dinner before I came. We drank a couple kinds of wine - Chardonnay blend and Sommer Quartet, which is sweet. Both were delicious! You should visit this place.

The most amazing venue for any occasion, especially for our wedding. My husband proposed to me at one of their Friday night concerts. Which if you haven't been and you're in the Fresno area it's a must! I've been to many events out there over the years. The communication with the owners and staff was smooth and easy, everything is laid out in the contract. They gave great suggestions for our other planning needs. They have very generous requirements. You do need to remember they are a small business, which is what gives it the magic. The most serene moment is when the sun has set, the wind is blowing, and the strings lights are on. October was a great month for a wedding out there. Their lawn was green and healthy. So many photo op spots around the venue.

Our favorite local winery! Summer concerts have begun every Friday night for the 2023 season and they are so much fun. They also have beer in addition to wine and even had an amazing seltzer. Different food trucks are also there each Friday for a variety of local foods. A big night I'm looking forward to is Tom Sandoval and the most Extras playing on June 16th!! Also, if you become wine club members, you get into all the concerts for FREE!

I have been there twice, the last time I took 2 bottles of water in my bag. They would not allow sealed water bottles in to the event. But you can take any type of snacks inside. (They bring in food trucks for the events). They won't let water bottles in but snacks can go in????? Really! In what universe does that make any sense? If i was a food truck owner I would be pissed to see everyone walking in with food. Keep the food out so food trucks make money!!! Not a bottle of water. Use some common sense!! I won't be back. It sucks. This place has no clue!!!

Engelmann Cellars is a must do in Fresno! They have an amazing selection of wine, beer, seltzers and non-alcoholic options to keep your thirst quenched all year long. The venue is just stunning!! It's one of the best spots in town to watch the sunset. The Friday night summer concerts are so much fun. There is ample room to get a great spot in the shade, so bring a chair or blanket and sit back and enjoy the tunes. There are always delicious eats at the great selection of food trucks. Sundays are family & pet friendly and there is plenty of room to run and play. Plan to bring food as there aren't food trucks on Sunday. I highly recommend this place and can't wait for my next visit.

We absolutely love this winery,People are friendly wine is great and the grounds are very nice and clean.And the music on Fridays is awesome.
