Did a tasting at Gruet this Monday. Highly recommend the experience if you like sparkling wine. They offer four different tasting flights and they are very helpful explaining the difference among them. Tasting was $16 for four pours but the server was very generous in adding two other types of champagne/sparkling wine.See more..

During our visit (in Deming for 1 week, currently on day 5) and we have visited the tasting room 4 days in a row! We have thoroughly enjoyed browsing the goodies in their place with lots of cute signs, etc. We love sitting at the tasting bar and enjoying a glass of wine while speaking to Paulo. Definitely a place to stop into. And, they do Harvest Host (RV Camping) at the Las Cruces location and we were told they are going to start it at the Deming location soon. So, Harvest Host peeps - if in the area, its worth checking out!See more..
4.5Rio Grande Vineyards and Winery(33 reviews) - Phenomenal experience Thursday: Spent More than 3 hours Wineries & Vineyards
We were traveling thru the area and came upon this winery by chance. We were warmly greeted and felt at home. The owner and his wife explained the history of the area, the early origins of wine making in New Mexico, and the various types of grapes that they grow. We tried wine tasting for four different varieties. The owners went out of their way to understand our palates and match the wines that they served to what we would enjoy. We had a wonderful time, made new friends, and ordered some fine reds. We will return!See more..
We had Raymond (the owner) all to ourselves for our tasting. What an education we received! He is personable, funny & so informative! We were able to take our time & just soak in the experience. Almonds & chocolates to clear your palate in between tastings, what's not to love! Gorgeous view as well.See more..

4.5Ponderosa Valley Vineyards(30 reviews) - A unique gem with excellent wines! Thursday: 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Wineries & Vineyards
Stopped here while passing through the state. Spent over an hour with Mary, who was very helpful and knowledgeable about the wines. This place has won many awards and it’s evident why. Great red blends, great service in a unique environment. Cool metal sculptures make me never want to throw away old tools. The friendly dogs were a bonus- they weren’t managing at all and pretty much acted like we didn’t exist. This stop was the best part of the trip!See more..

The owners welcome you and make you feel like family as soon as you walk in the door. We chatted while we tasted several wines. We enjoyed a glass of wine with our picnic lunch on the patio. They cleaned off the table and moved the cats off the patio, so that we could enjoy our lunch. Wines are good and view is amazing.See more..
4.5Tularosa Vineyards(22 reviews) - Nice Experience, good wine, and Harvest Host Camp Site Wineries & Vineyards
We found this location on Harvest Hosts along our planned route. As we arrived later in the day, we didn't have a lot of time for the tasting, but we enjoyed the time we had. We also enjoyed the service and company. The wine in this region tends to be on the sweeter side, but they're still good and the red's were pretty smooth. If you get the chance, give it a try. If you're a member of Harvest Hosts, you'll enjoy the stay, its a nice quiet location. #harvesthostsSee more..
4.5Acequia Vineyards & Winery(22 reviews) - Best little winery in New Mexico Spent 1-2 hours Wineries & Vineyards
This was one of the best wineries we have ever been to, and we’ve been all over the country. The hospitality was outstanding. The owner was in the middle of cutting his grass, and stopped and spent lots of time talking to us and helping us sample many of his wines. His pride truly shows, and he’s one of the friendliest people we’ve ever met. I would highly suggest even if you have to go out of your way stopping by this vineyard.See more..
I was traveling across country and visiting wineries in NM and happened to find Amaro Winery after trying some of the other wineries in Las Cruces. I found that Amaro had the most comfortable environment. The service was stellar but more than anything I appreciated the ambiance, the music outside on the patio was lovely and the weather was perfect! I would highly recommend this establishment!See more..
Yes wineries tasting room is a bit off the beaten path, but well worth the visit. They have a beautiful view of Caballo lake and an extremely peaceful environment. The wine maker, Brad Shattuck, his son, and often his business partner Virginia are on site. They are incredibly welcoming and warm. They are passionate about what they do and they enjoy sharing that with others. I can particularly recommend the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon. I anticipate the 2020 cab will be just as good! There are a wide variety of wines that will appeal to every palate. It would be a shame to travel through New Mexico and miss this winery.See more..

My wife and I do many vineyards and wineries back home in MN and WI. We were visiting family in Carlsbad for the first time and decided to try this place. One of the few wineries we have tried where the wines are good up and down the list, both whites and reds. We ordered pizzas as well. It's good the staff warned us about the pizza size, because we are used to "personal" size brick oven pizza at most wineries we go to (who have pizza). The pizzas here were basically a large size pizza you would find at a pizza joint. We were almost the only ones at the winery that day at lunch time, so the service was fine. The wines were good enough that we bought a case of various wines to bring back home with us. We will go back again when in town to visit.See more..
A surprisingly nice find in such a small town. We went in February during COVID because it offered an outdoor patio that we were comfortable enough going to. Tables were far enough apart and all employees wore their masks correctly. We ordered at the bar and then sat down outside. I was happy to see other options besides wine such as cider and beer on tap. They also offer a few appetizer options and we got the soft pretzel and cheese and artichoke dip. All yummy! I'd also mention that their merchandise is amazing. Their logo and branding materials were designed by an ENMU graduate and includes really fun art. I had to buy a crew neck sweatshirt and a sticker. I'll probably return for some cups or such in the future.See more..
Stopped in to this quaint winery while my husband and I were celebrating our 5 year anniversary in Mesilla, the atmosphere is very inviting and I have to say the Luna Rossa Gewurztraminer is one of the most delicious white wines I've ever had anywhere. The service was good, not pushy. People out on the patio with their pets and even the dog looked like he was having a great time. Overall very charming and I can't wait to go back. =)See more..
El Alamo is an amazing little secret in Alcalde, NM. The tasting experience is by reservation, but don't let that scare you away. It just means you'll be treated like royalty. This is an unpretentious winery and tasting room with a number of award-winning wines. The signature wine is a bourbon barrel aged Baco Noir. Fantastic!See more..
5.0Mesa Vista Winery Tasting Room(2 reviews) - Should have been the first stop on our wine tasting tour. Spent 1-2 hours Wineries & Vineyards
Building has a cute exterior and the inside is charming. We were greeted the minute we walked in. Already an improvement over the first stop. Comfortable atmosphere, not overly crowded. 5 tastings for 5 dollars and if you purchased a bottle of wine, the tastings were free. They have the only brick and mortar yarn store in the area. The yarns are made from bamboo, yak, alpaca, soy etc. There was live music on Saturday. Currently they have watercolors by Debra Vance on display.See more..

4.5Camino Real Winery(2 reviews) - Best Little Winery in New Mexico Spent 1-2 hours Wineries & Vineyards
Really off the beaten path, this 16 year old one man winery really shows it has been a labor of love. The tasting room is located at the back of his house in a large add on room that also serves as his operation center. Tasting his wines amidst all the equipment is instructive, interesting, and something different from the usual. We liked all the wines, and especially the sweet white - Oñate Gold He asked where we were from in Texas, and after finding out, he told us of a couple from our town that makes bi-monthly trips to his winery and buy cases at a time. Turns out we know them, and the next time they go, they are going to pickup a case for us!! The owner says he is going to move his wine tasting to a commercial location in a couple of months. Hope it has the same warm friendly atmosphere.See more..
