Folktale Winery & Vineyards

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.
(2417)

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!
