About Folktale Winery & Vineyards
Folktale Winery & Vineyards is the most event-and-entertainment-hospitality-celebrated and folk-tradition-storytelling-named wine destination in Carmel Valley. The name — Folktale, invoking the oral tradition of stories passed between generations around communal fires and celebration gatherings — declares the winery's founding philosophy: wine is most meaningful when it creates and accompanies the most personally storytelling-communal and folk-tradition-celebration experiences.
The Carmel Valley Road estate — with a year-round events calendar featuring live music performances, wine country yoga, food truck festivals, harvest dinners, and the most festival-and-gathering-hospitality-designed grounds available from any Monterey County wine estate — provides the most communally storytelling-celebrating and folk-tradition-gathering-oriented wine experience in the Carmel Valley wine corridor. The extended tasting hours (until 8pm weekdays, 9pm weekends) make Folktale the most sunset-and-evening-hospitality-extending Carmel Valley wine destination.
The estate wine program — Carmel Valley Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, sparkling Brut, and the Estate Red proprietary blend — produces wine with the communal-celebration-folk-tradition-hospitality-designed identity that the Folktale name demands: wine meant to be shared, to accompany stories, and to create the most personally storytelling-memorable and festival-communally-celebrating wine estate experiences in Carmel Valley.
