Vineyard House at Folktale Winery

Nestled in the picturesque Carmel Valley, Folktale Winery is a storybook escape where the enchantment of fairytales meets the sophistication of fine wine.

The Vineyard House: A Picture-Perfect Event Venue
Tucked among lush vineyards, The Vineyard House is an elegant retreat that seamlessly blends luxury with the artistry of Folktale’s winemaking tradition. This expansive 6,000-square-foot villa offers an unparalleled experience, complete with state-of-the-art amenities and a sense of exclusivity.

With four private rooms and a grand living space boasting twenty-foot vaulted ceilings, the house provides a breathtaking setting for celebrations both intimate and grand. French doors open onto a wraparound patio, where guests can sip wine while soaking in panoramic vineyard views. Whether hosting a wedding, milestone celebration, corporate retreat, or team-building event, this refined setting sets the stage for unforgettable moments.

The Wine Garden: A Haven for Wine Lovers
For those who appreciate life’s simple pleasures, the Wine Garden at Folktale Winery is an irresistible retreat. Imagine lounging with friends under twinkling string lights, a glass of wine in hand, as the scent of fresh vines lingers in the air. This relaxed yet lively setting is the perfect place to gather, share stories, and indulge in the beauty of Carmel Valley.

During a recent visit, my boyfriend, Matthew, and I spent an evening savoring a flight of Folktale’s expressive wines. We paired our tasting with the Sweet Heat 2.0 pizza—a heavenly combination of honey drizzle, spicy Italian sausage, pepperoni, stracciatella, fennel pollen, chili oil, and honeycomb crumble. As the fire pits crackled and lanterns cast a soft glow, the Wine Garden became a dreamlike escape, perfect for unwinding after a long day.

Wines and Vines: The Soul of Folktale
The vineyards at Folktale Winery thrive under Carmel Valley’s distinctive climate, yielding grapes that translate into wines rich in character and depth. Each bottle tells a story—one of the land, the climate, and the careful craftsmanship that nurtures the vines from bud to bottle.

Though Folktale Winery is a charming destination year-round, autumn brings an extra layer of magic. The vineyards transform into a tapestry of gold and crimson, offering a stunning backdrop for tasting sessions and seasonal events.

More than just a winery, Folktale is a destination that embodies romance, relaxation, and the art of fine wine. Whether you’re planning an elegant event at The Vineyard House or looking for a leisurely afternoon in the Wine Garden, Folktale Winery promises an experience as enchanting as its name suggests.
