Folktale Winery & Vineyards

Nestled in the heart of Carmel Valley, our outdoor Wine Garden is the perfect place to relax. We named this place Folktale Winery & Vineyards.

Join our team of wine educators as they taste you through our award-winning wines while enjoying lunch or dinner. In 2015, a band of artists, craftspeople, and lovers of life brought their wandering imaginations and lofty aspirations to a magical piece of land in Carmel, California. Out in the sunny valley, we cultivated grapevines and gardens to craft beautiful wines and experiences to delight th

e senses. Folktale was inspired by the idea that in every great bottle of wine, there is a story. It is filled with uniqueness of place, a year of sun and rain, and the art and craft of winemaking. The story is about our people, our guests, and our passion. This is a love story, and the best love stories never end. Make sure to follow us on all our Instagram: to stay up-to-date!

Unveil the complexity of our 2021 Folktale "The Mountain" Reserve Bordeaux Blend—a wine that embodies the essence of the rugged terrain it hails from. Each sip tells a story, beginning with crème de cassis, black cherry cola, and pomegranate, weaving through notes of cedar, violet, and sage. Hints of mocha, cocoa, and toasted wood add richness, while granite and sugar pine leave a lasting impression.

While this blend is already a masterpiece, patience rewards those who cellar it—allowing its flavors to deepen and evolve over time.
