    If you want to be treated as family instead of customers, come visit MJA. I've read the negative reviews that are associated with the Yelp review, & all I will say is there are always people who find the glass half empty, but if you find your glass half full & overflowing, MJA winery is the place to be. We have been members for years, & have enjoyed the fruits of the labor that have been crafted in the beautiful art that is MJA wine. Not to mention the Hawaiian coffee & chocolate are to die for! The owner, the workers & the environment are all welcoming & wholesome. Don't bother looking for another winery, become part of the MJA family!

    The BEST wines I’ve ever had. I’ve be been to countless tasting rooms across California, the USA, and Italy, and have never joined a wine club. One visit to MJA changed everything. The wines were so phenomenal that I had to sign up for as many bottles as possible each quarter. If you are looking for exceptional wine, this is the place. 10/10, HIGHLY recommend.

    Fabulous award winning CA hand crafted wines! Kona coffee and chocolate covered macadamia nuts from their farm in Hawaii. If you are lucky enough to be there when the owners in, wow what an experience.

    We had a wonderful time hanging here for a couple of hours. The wine was wonderful and we had some great chocolate covered expresso paired with one of the wines. Thanks for the outing.

    I've been an MJA wine club member since 2014 and just realized I've never posted a review. Santa Cruz is blessed with numerous excellent wineries, about half a dozen of which operate tasting rooms within a block. MJA stands out for their excellent Napa cabernets, as well as a broad range of well-made varieties and styles. They do mostly reds, but their sauvignon blanc is outstanding and a favorite of ours. The tasting room provides a comfortable covered patio as well as tastings inside at the counter for a more interactive experience. Marin is often present, though nowadays his son John is more likely to be pouring. The MJA tasting room offers the most accommodating hours on the West Side, open 7 days a week until 6 or 7pm.

    This was the best venue for the buck. The staff were super helpful. We loved the assistance and the hospitality. We had plenty of time to set up for the ceremony, and Cathy was awesome to help us whenever needed. The ambiance was beautiful and the wine was excellent!
