Ladron Cellars

My absolute favorite winery in the Denver area. The owners are super friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. The tasting room is inviting with an upscale, but approachable vibe. Join their wine club and receive invitations to semi-annual tasting parties. An absolute blast!

What a great dtc find! We are wine club members here and love it. The owners are such nice people and so welcoming (even when I've brought my baby/toddler in on occasion). I love that they have a wine club where you get 2 3-or-6 packs a year vs each month as we don't drink that much at home. Also, they do a twice annual party for their wine club when it's time to pick up your shipments that is amazing- unlimited wine tastes, food, live music, and their great patio. My only downside for a day to day visit is that you have to purchase a bottle vs a glass so hopefully you are with others who all agree on what to try!

The best wine you'll find in Colorado! Great atmosphere. Live music on Friday nights. They offer charcuterie boards. They allow you to bring in your own food or snacks. Don't miss out! Come taste! The wine is amazing! Truly a perfect experience!

A new wine tasting experience in Colorado? Tell me more.

One of the best ways to try and experience good wine is that relaxed wine tasting experience. This is an experience where you remove the all that external "noise" and get to try a flight of wines and sometimes paired cheese selection with each wine.

When you walk into Ladrón Cellars you feel immediately relaxed with the decor and smiling hosts. This is very rare to have thugs more "traditional" tasting experience vs the wine bar feel.

We were able to taste their main flight as well the reserve flight. Both were delicious and smoothly guided you through the different blends and tastes follow. Well balanced and some nice complexities that peeked out in each sip.

A few wines that I enjoyed (and picked up a few bottles) this visit were the Matador which was mostly Tempranillo with a little zin (perfect note of some pepper).

The other one I really enjoyed was their 2018 Knuckles. This bottle had and old school bare knuckle boxer art on the front and did it's "jab"on my palate.

We got to have a tour of threat back area and wine making facility and future barrel tasting room. Even though when I came to visit it was snowing out, but they have an amazing patio and looks like a relaxing place to take in a sunset with some wine.

Overall ver satisfied and so glad I found this new wine tasting experience.

I recommend you to try it out, say hello to Tracy and the crew, and let me know which was your favorite from the flight?

Unassuming place in a strip mall but the owner was so friendly. We had an infant with us (not sampling the wine!) and that was no problem for them. Heads up: They only do wine tastings OR wine by the bottle. Their wine by the bottle was reasonably priced. We got a bottle of the Escape Artist and all 4 of us loved it. We also got the charcuterie board which had all sorts of lovely cheeses on it. I am sure we will be back again the next time we are in town.
Oh also worth mentioning is their view of sunsets. Very nice!

Unplanned stop, just happened upon the winery on vacation in Denver. Enjoyed our tasting. The atmosphere was relaxing and the winery dog was fun to interact with. Servers were friendly. Beautiful tasting room, with a shaded patio. The view was fabulous. The wines were very good. Highly recommend, and they are dog friendly.

Meh - they have 6 reds and 2 white wines to choose from. Not available by the glass. The view and the patio are nice. The white wine I had wasn't very good but I was stuck with the bottle. I took it home and made sauce.

I came here with my father for a dad/daughter wine tasting date. We both enjoy wine and know a decent bit about it, and we were SO impressed. This is by far the best winery I've been to (and best wines I've had) in Colorado. We loved the Grifter and Escape Artist. Tracy took time telling us about Ladron, its process, style, etc and gave us a nice (but not over-the-top) description of each wine. We really enjoyed the info, knowledge and attention she provided us. We sat outside on the patio and enjoyed sipping our flights on a perfect Colorado fall day and had the absolute best time. I know my dad will be going back soon with my mom to show her a great new spot, and I'm sure I'll be back again soon!

This place is a hidden gem. Their wine collection was spot on. I am a lover of variety and a selection of blends and they had both. Additionally, I love when businesses make things their own. They have a local artist do all of their labels for them and I loved the creativity. The one of the owners Tracy was super knowledgeable and helpful and we would love to go back. This great for big or small parties.

This is a true jewel! Owners, Richard and Tracy, invite you in to what feels like their home. You are their welcomed guests! Fantastic music on Friday nights that is a relaxing background for their yummy wines and charcuterie boards. Put it on your "must do" list.
