Frey Vineyards Winery

I don’t understand why anyone would give Frey a bad review. Do they understand that for people like me who are Sulfite intolerant, Frey is a godsend of wineries?
Stop complaining, and start listening!!! I have a partner who loves strong bold reds, and when he tried the Merlot, he was ready to take the bottle and drink it himself.
I joined the wine club last month and this is what I discussed with a friend:
«I just received my first Frey delivery, and I am so amazed and pleased at the selection! I have always purchased Frey from a few over-​priced vendors in Oakland, and I was so overly excited when I opened the box! Everything is wonderful and so yummy. I have a severe allergy to sulfites, and I thought I would never be able to drink wine again; until I found Frey.» Thank you Frey, for your organic and natural instinct to producing wine that even I can drink. We should all drink Frey and drink to Frey! For the Love of Wine, Lili Smith

I bought this at Sprouts I think as I am always searching for a reasonable table wine. This organic white table wine hit all the points for me, reasonable price, organic, NO SULFATES!!! But best of all it has a crisp clean taste. All I have to do now is find where I bought it because it’s my new summer every day white wine! Good Job Frey Family!

My husband and I tried their white table wine and were sorely disappointed. It tasted like stinky, moist feet. Not really sure how else to explain it even though I have never tasted stinky, moist feet. I’m pretty sure that’s how they would taste though. I even posted on their Facebook page that I was upset at purchasing their wine and would not buy it again. They were nice enough to respond to my post after about five days. They had asked how much I paid for the wine so they could help me out. I was sick at the time they posted and did not look for the receipt for a couple days. When I went to respond to their post, about three days later, they had taken down their response post and my original post. Nice to know they are fluffing their posts and probably their reviews on Facebook. Hopefully they can’t fluff the ones on here or else people are not getting a fair evaluation of their product. Either way, I will NEVER be purchasing their wine again for two reasons — 1. It tastes like stinky, moist feet and 2. They are liars by taking down negative posts.

Don’t know the family personally like the other reviews, but was less than impressed with Frey.
To begin with it was hard to find. They have one small sign on the road and nothing on the actual building. Had a hippy-​cult vibe.
The parking was pretty bad and muddy.
Love the idea of organic and biodynamic wine, but was very let down with their product. Not a wine snob, but I know hooch when I taste it.

Just had a bottle of Frey Chardonnay, I have to say it is a very strong flavor. I have had other wines from them and did like it, will have to skip this one

One of the extended Frey family rescued my husband and I on his way to work and gave us a ride to the winery so we could call a tow truck when we got our car stuck on the dirt part of Tomki road (a few miles past the winery — don’t worry, the winery itself is on a nice paved part of the road). I didn’t get to taste the wine because it was about 6am, but the winery and surrounding grounds are lovely, and the hospitality was much appreciated.

The Sangiovese is awesome!
Some of the wine is a bit gamey though.
The customer service is awesome if you order online. Never been to the vineyards.

I love the family and their generosity. The Frey’s have donated wine to many of my sons fundraisers though out the years, even after I left Ukiah. I had this wine at my wedding and love the biodynamic line. It is available at Sacramento Coop and Whole Foods. If you want to support a great family and a small farm, this is real folks!

Frey focuses on organic wines, which can be an instant turn off for some people [my drinking companion thought that all of the wines tasted a bit weird] so depending on your views they may not be your glass of wine. If you like organic wines, then I would seriously recommend this place. I found several of their wines nice [the white and red table wines were good] and probably would have bought a case of the biodynamic syrah which was on sale but I have too much wine lying around. They had a nice, laid back atmoshpere which was nice when tasting their ~15 or so wines. I did enjoy tasting there and probably would have bought more if there weren’t several other places in the area that I knew I was going to buy lots of wine from.

We visited the Redwood Valley just north of Ukiah for some wine tasting. Yes– it is out there but not as out there as you might think. We appreciated the low key atmostphere of the area. We visited Frey Vineyards and were blown away by the beauty of their vineyard and land. Frey produces organic and biodynamic wines– and is the oldest organic winery in the country. The Frey family (10 out of 12) children run the vineyard and live on the 90 acres.
The wine was tasty. I haven’t had a lot of organic wines but I liked the organic Zin and biodynamic Petite Syrah. Some of the wine fell a little flat but if you want a «wine experience» this is the place to go. The grounds felt magical and our host was gracious and kind. Make sure you make an appointment before hand and if you are going to Frey– make an appointment at Oster Vineyards across the street and taste some seriously good Cab!
