Charene Barnes

Alyssa Becker

Interesting stop while in volcano country. Wines are unique and interesting and staff is knowledgeable. My best friend bought a bottle. It was our second visit (first time was 5 years ago) and they were a little less enticing than in our first visit. Good stop for those who enjoy wine or wanting to enjoy a piece of the local food and wine scene in Hawaii.

Alexander Shvarts

Amazing. Worth the trip from anywhere on the island. Some of the most delicious and unique wines I've ever had the pleasure of tasting.

Jajaval Nakhakes

Norris Anderson

We thoroughly enjoyed the wines . Kendall was friendly and knowledgeable. We had a great time.

Jordan Offutt

Great place to stop in. They serve a flight of all of there wines for an amazingly affordable $8. There are some really unique flavors here. The staff is very knowledgeable about their ingredients, sources and processes. Very unique wines. All were tasty, but some were particularly surprising in how they finish. This is worth the trip if you are even a casual wine consumer. Staff also had great dining recommendations for around the area.

Sarah DeFer

I didn't care much for most if the wines, but the atmosphere and goods are pleasant. I tried each wine and only liked the tea and honey wines.

Bobby Scarlatti

The first three wines were amazing. No joke. This place is for real.

Courtnee Butler

Very good choices of wines to pair! Elle is very helpful! The tasting was Fabulous and reasonably priced 5.00 per person for standard and 8.00 per person for 7 tastings. Definitely joining the winery club.

Jonathan James

Lisa Chavez

I really enjoyed this place. Wines are fruity and some are infused with tea. Definitely different and new experience for me Having been to other wineries in the U.S., this one stands out.

Rachel Butler

2 years ago my husband came back to Texas from a business trip with a bottle of the Volcano Red - THE best wine I have ever tasted. When we decided to take a vacation to the Big Island there was no way I was going to miss the opportunity to visit the winery itself ... I was not disappointed. Knowledgeable, friendly staff, delicious tastes. LOVED our time there. If you like wine, this winery is a must!

Jeffrey Rahm

Sandy McKay

Nice wines, good food!

Nina B

Amazing time. Wonderful service.

Tracy Crocker

We stopped by here on our honeymoon and had such a great time. We were the only people there at the time so we basically got a private tasting. The wine was amazing and we also got to try some of their mead! We flew home with a few bottles that we just couldn't live without.

Travis R

We thought it was nice. Enjoyed the samples and education

Al Thompson

The winery was a little difficult to find on maps, possibly due to a poor signal in this area. We were delightfully successful. The staff proved generous in our wine sampling. They offer a unique range of wine. We found selections to mail directly home. They delayed shipping to coincide with our arrival; our shipment arrived about two of our return. This is a nice excursion for adventurous tourists while visit the nearby national park.

Clinton Emrich

nice people. VERY sweet wine.

Sheila

Nice place. Really good wines!

Eric Hagiwara

Really good wine

Nona Bockius

Great wines!

Raquel Rupple

Exceeded my expectations. Very refreshing to see wine being made this way in this part of the world. Do not skip the guava grape wine, it's one of a kind.

Joshua Maurer

Fantastic location, neat atmosphere and great service. Will definitely go back if I have the chance.

Ron Smith

Friendly, knowledgeable staff who are truly passionate about their wine. You'll want to MAKE room in your suitcase to take a couple bottles home with you!

Richard Blumenthal

Very nice people.

SeriouslyBrandee

I take all my off island friends here to do the samplers n they always leave with the macnut mead. Im not into

Betch Face

They have a friendly and knowledgeable staff as well as a very interesting and unique palate of wines.

Angelika Pointner

Nice staff. Make sure to try the guava-grape wine.

Michelle Rubey

You can taste all the wines for only 8$! The park was mostly shut down so we were very disappointed, but this made up for it! Delicious wine!

C L

Wine tasting was enjoyable. Infusion was my top choice of wine along with the selections featuring the jaboticaba fruit.

Kim Harkins

Every time I've been there... 5

Erin Lane

Tea wine with champagne .. recommendation of the lady at the winery... is amazing!!!

Brian DaSilva

Good service and really good wine.

Jesse Smith

Expensive. Try there. Buy at the store.

Cynthia Hoffman

Interesting and different wines here. A pleasant atmosphere and staff!

Dan Stypa

I stumbled upon this winery in a magazine while waiting at the airport and am so glad I did. It was a great spot - such a nice way to cap off our time at the Volcano National Park. For only $10, you get a guided tasting of all 8 of their wines. They’re all pretty good and it was a fun hour spent. Some of their wine is sold at the ABC Stores in Waikiki Beach so we bought a bottle before leaving.

Scott Tanaka

Friendly helpful staff and amazing wine.

Joseph Farlow

Really good selection of housemade wines. We really enjoyed our time here.

Debra Lines

Nice place. The Mele smelled the best, and the guava grape tasted the best. Then again I like sweeter wines.

Stephen White

Great winery with a local twist ideal to visit after a day of volcano watching.

Erin Schauder

We only tried the tea. Each tea flight was $5, which is a pretty good deal. The lady at the desk was very knowledgeable about the tea. It’s cool that it’s America’s southernmost winery.

michael mclean

Real friendly staff fun place wine was a bit fruity for our tastes

Terry Hensley

We have visited countless wineries in Northern California(our home state). Our experience at the Volcano Winery is definitely at or near the top of the list. Given their unique location we expected mostly a novelty experience. However, we were very pleasantly surprised! Our server Beth, was very knowledgeable, friendly, engaging and helpful. And, the wines were very good. We ordered a half case, and it was difficult to agree on which six bottles to choose, because of the many good options. If you visit the south end of the island - make time for the Volcano Winery. You won't be disappointed.

Jeff Sullivan

Very friendly and informative. I really enjoyed the tasting . Good flavors to the wine.

Basil Maurer

Very nice array of flavors! Love the green tea infused Mead

A+ Psychlone Computers

Some really good sweet whites made from fruits! I really loved their Port though!!

Faith Parry

The experience is super cool! The wines are a bit young. But a few were quite delicious and it was cool. I thought the tea was outrageously expensive. The tasting was affordable and the wines were reasonable. The guy doing the tasting was fun and had a lot of good information to share. I am glad I went.

D Slater

This was one of our stops we made on an excursion and so glad we did. The people were very nice and the wine tasting was delightful!

Afton Dombroske

Great experience. The tasting was fun. Tasty wines and cheeses. Shipping option takes the hassle out of bringing bottles back to the continental US.

Becky Larsen

$8 for sampling 8 wines is a great deal. I ended up with a bottle and their bulk sample package of cheeses hehehehe It's was really good.

JoAnna Porter

Great place! Great wines! We had the classic tasting, a tea tasting, and a coffee. Would recommend it all! The Volcano Red and the Macadamia Nut Honey Mead are lovely!

James C. Futch

The tour was awesome, very informative, excellent tea sampling only for us.

Crista Morones

An awesome experience!

Arnold Stone

Best wine on the Island. No sign on the side road to the winery.

Jackie Claux

The only winery in the Big Island. Great wine!

Veronica Belshaw

Great wine, most attractive website too!

Kevin Boos

Absolutely fantastic wines, and cheap tastings ($5) to boot!

Phili H

I prefer dry red wines but overall I enjoyed my experience here. I was a fan of their meads and Jodi was wonderful and helpful.

Karen Stout

Nice staff! Great wine!

Linda Nelson

Fabulous views!! Experienced an earthquake, saw an eruption on Kilauea and had some great wine.

Holly Struve

Loved the different variety of wines we cannot get in the states.

Henry Schwartz

Fantastic place and LOVELY people:) they even lent me an allen wrench to fix my broken sun roof! We loved the wines especially the use of guava, jaboticaba berry, and macademia nut honey. Definitely go out of your way to stop by.

Paige Vickers

Great winery with some floats and samples for you to purchase. They also have some cheese platters and tea flights as well! Great staff with a lovey environment, would highly recommend stopping buy to learn about their winery and sample some wines. They have a range from dry to sweet desert wines. If you want to purchase you can buy and take with you or they also do ship!!

Jerome Robinson

I'm a foodie & very picky. This place had the best bbq ribs & chicken that I've ever had in the country. Absolutely amazing. The coleslaw, macaroni salad & corn were very goid too. The wine was different & unique. Very good wine, but it was the food that sold me. Out of this world. I definitely want to know their secret. I've been to 3 different islands and this place was my favorite so far.

Melissa Morton

Very friendly! Excellent customer service. Wines are superb! Definitely a must do location!

Daniel N

Pretty nice place and friendly staff.

James Amrod

Friendly staff, sweet wine.

Dillon Keech

Visited 2/25/19 - It's a short jaunt off the main road, but a beautiful little store with an extremely reasonable sampling flight! All the wines I sampled were unique, not only from each other but from anything I have ever tasted before; the big surprise, however, was the best green tea I have EVER tasted! Well worth the visit - and they do ship their wines to ease your transport concerns.

Cristobal Alvarez

Wine tasting was very nice with a barbecue style dinner very nice.

Natalia Komissarova

Great local winery with fun testing of wine and teas. Good prices for local wines. All stuff is so nice and friendly

Rhonda Medeiros

Loved this place...tucked in it's own hideaway the place was very welcoming and the staff was fantastic... the wine tasting was superb....thank you for a fabulous afternoon!!!

Nick Bickford

Excellent wine and very friendly staff that walk you through the wine tasting.

Dan Dimitriu

Nice place, nice people, interesting wines

Kira Lillehei

Great wine!! Stopped here while driving around the island. Thought it would be fun to stop in for a tasting. We loved the wine so much that we left with a case! You absolutely need to try the "Infusion" wine. I am ordering another case very soon!

Kris Sands

We did wine tasting here along with a BBQ after a day long tour. Excellent wine variety

Jacob Smith

We had a blast here and Jodi was awesome and super nice! The guava grape wine is amazing.

Christopher Isaacs

You know that feeling when you find a wine that makes a great evening even better, well I didn't find it here. I purchased two reds and both were equally disapointing. Somewhere between Sunday service sacrament and Fruit Punch Malt Liquor, I peeled the label back assuming to uncover the Welches logo. The second star is for what I presume is a distinctive taste of Volcanic wines that people actually seek out. If that's the case and you like the lava juice, then this is the place for you. The real lesson here is, don't show up to a Vineyard and buy for the sake of novelty.

R. Lee Donaldson

This is very unique winery with some very good and unique wines. Cute little showroom that is comfortable and relaxing. Staff are very knowledgeable as being friendly. It is a must stop to see this hidden gem if heading up to the volcano.

Ryan Swan

Love this place! Been here twice on two separate trips to the island. They have great wine, and a cat!

Mac thedutch

Such fun great wine.

Joslynn K

I LOVE this winery born and raised here and only yesterday was my first time going. I will be going back

Jim Morison

Good little winery.

КБ . Q.

I bought "Macadamia nut honey wine" ... DON"T BUY THIS!!! This is not taste as a honey vine or anything nice - it taste as very cheap, whipped up made, medieval PPBV (Poorly Purified Bread Vodka). This Macadamia nut honey PPBV is also overpriced - $15 for 375ml tiny bottle. Yak... another lie on the advertisement.

Igor Zilberman

Fun place to visit and try some local wine

Lauren Fritz

Such a charming establishment. Lovely employees, the owner was wonderful. And the wines are great! Such variety, and each with their own local flair. Since you can only buy in the islands, you have to take some home! I'm lucky I live on Maui and they supply, but mainlanders, bring it back with you :)

Ted Smethers

Very informative. .The girls knew their products

Taylor Yatogo

Unexpectedly one the best part of going to the crater despite the park being closed at the time! Even if you don't like wine you might like their options and award winning teas.

Jason Wrisley

Good wines & friendly service. They also have kama 'aina discounts.

Kristina Havens

So glad we stopped and got a taste of the island!
