In every great bottle of wine, there is a story. Those stories are about people, passion, places, life, love, laughter, nature, and celebration. Stories are what inspired us to build Folktale Winery & Vineyards.

Nestled in the valley just 5 miles from the Pacific Ocean, Folktale is conveniently accessible from the Monterey Airport and the Monterey Peninsula. An easy drive from Silicon Valley and the San Francisco Bay Area, Folktale is a one-of-a-kind winery destination. Situated on 15 acres of sustainably-farmed Sangiovese vineyards and gardens along the Carmel River, it offers numerous venue settings with which to delight you and your guests. Whether your group is small and intimate, desiring a large feast and celebration, or a memorable corporate retreat, our aim is to create an experience tailored to your group. Each of our venue locations has its own unique feel and narrative. We invite you to discover and enjoy this idyllic setting with the award winning wines, food, natural beauty, comfortable climate, and the warm hospitality of Carmel Valley.
