It’s a bit of a drive from San Jose, and we had a professional driver take us. Highly recommend that, although self-driving os totally doable. The tour was great! Kimberly was engaging and interesting. The grounds are beautiful and the “origin story” is so cool! Very good wines and the charcuterie boards were excellent! I highly recommend this experience!
An amazing place not just for the surroundings and the views but for the quality of the tour and the wines as well as the tour and other products for sale. Alonso, our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and he definitely has a sense of BELONGING at Copey Estate. He is so proud of the place and its products and it comes through when conducting the tour and the tasting. Highly highly recommend a visit to this winery, incredible views and great products. Must try the Gold Rush.
It was excellent. Very knowledgeable and very accommodating. I really enjoyed the experience where they were able to cater to English speakers with minimal Spanish speaking skills. Highly recommend.
We had Alonzo for our tour guide, he was amazing! Highly recommend!!! He was very knowledgeable about the vineyard. Absolutely an amazing time!!!
Thank you so much! We’re really happy to hear you had a great time with Alonso. we’ll make sure to share your message with him 😊🍷 Hope to see you again soon!
It is a very personalized tour, the history and the process of wine making and golden berry is amazing! They are very friendly and the views are amazing! Very worth it!!🩷
Yes, there is a winery in Costa Rica and we thoroghly enjoyed our expereince there. The tour was very informative as to how they are raising grapes in Costa Rica and also utilizing the Golden Berry (Uchuva) to make liqour & other items such as dried Uchuva and jams. The wine tasting was great and included wines from vineyards in California and Israel that are also owned by the same individual! HIghly recommend this tour and tasting!
This wine tour and tasting exceeded expectations. The story of how the vineyard came to be is amazing. The tour gives in depth explanations of the process getting from plant to wine culminating with the tastings and pairings. Plus, the area is breath taking and the tasting room gorgeous.
I had no idea that there was a winery in Costa Rica. I had no idea that anyone had made a liqueur from golden berries. The Copey Estate Winery educated me on both counts in a glorious way. The tour of the facilities and the vineyards is highly educational for many reasons. The most obvious one was a demonstration of how one can grow wine grapes in such an unusual environment, especially when the seasons are not as well-defined as other more typical wine-growing regions. How they are able to not only grow but harvest grapes year-round is a stroke of genius. All that on top of the uchuva liqueur that they produce and I was sold. The tasting itself covers the full estate, including the liqueur both at room temperature and chilled, but especially wines from Copey and the other estate locations in California and Israel. All of the wines and spirits are notably excellent, but the best of the lot was the Syrah from the Copey vineyards themselves. The food pairings are inspired choices, both pairing well with the drinks and reflecting local heritage. If you are anywhere near the San Jose area in Costa Rica, this trip is easily worth your time and effort.
This is an amazing tour! Love all the little surprises and the knowledge behind it! You would never expect to taste such a high quality from a small country which is not known because of its wine. Golden rush is a must
Excellent experience and admirable work. You learn a lot and value every drink knowing everything it takes to bring it to the table
