Balistreri Vineyards

Balistreri Vineyards is a family-run urban winery just north of downtown Denver, rooted in Italian heritage and Colorado fruit. The cellar focuses on minimal intervention methods, crafting wines that are unfiltered and unfined with native fermentations and no added sulfites. Visitors find a warm, handcrafted feel from the tasting room to the barrel-lined cellars. It is a distinctive stop for travelers and locals alike. Guests can enjoy guided tastings or flights, often alongside a seasonal, farm-to-table lunch from the onsite kitchen. The setting includes a bright tasting bar, a garden patio, and views into the working winery, creating an engaging experience. Expect bold reds and aromatic whites sourced from Colorado’s Western Slope growers, along with occasional fruit or dessert offerings such as cherry or late harvest selections. Balistreri frequently hosts weddings, private events, and community gatherings, and it offers a wine club with member perks and releases. The location is convenient to major Denver routes, making it easy to reach for a casual tasting or a celebratory meal.
