MJA Vineyards

We are open for Tastings. Come for the wine...stay for the Aloha! Is it possible to make the intangible, tangible? To define love, or to capture the feeling of a sunset? That's the challenge when it comes to MJA. It's not just a destination, it's an experience that goes beyond the wine, mixed with the aroma of chocolate & Kona Coffee, the setting and the people... It's the Aloha! Actually, we handcraft around 8000 cases of our Aloha each year, right in our Westside Cellar in Santa Cruz. We sell our wines directly from our Tasting Rooms because our philosophy is that we want you to be able to buy the highest quality wine that we can produce at the best value possible. That's why we offer weekly specials such as "take 3 bottles for the price of 2", and 20% off everyday for our Kahuna Wine Club Members, and 30% off on club pickup days. And our 100% Kona Coffee that Marin (he's the MJA) grows on the Big Island of Hawaii, was voted as America's Best Coffee by Forbes Magazine.

We had planned a Sonoma/Napa trip since April. The disastrous wildfires started while we were in Rohnert Park and we scurried back to San Francisco and San Jose – disappointed that our Wine Country trip was disrupted, but feeling much compassion and sympathy for the folks directly in the fire’s devastation. We found an awesome alternative destination near Los Gatos – Byington Vineyards & Winery. What a remarkable venue at the end of a rather challenging trip up Bear Creek Road. Our personal “Uber” driver Bob navigated a Dodge Caravan along the winding narrow road where there were more than a few places/turns where his fellow travelers were a bit white-knuckled. Byington has beautiful grounds and splendid views of the Santa Cruz mountains from their Wedding Hill. Bailey Garcia was the ultimate host in the tasting room and was truly knowledgeable about the wines on the tasting flight, as well as the history of Byington. Bailey even gave us a brief tour of the wine cave that made our day. Picnic tables, BBQ grills, and a Bocce Ball court are on the premises and if visiting on a Sunday, be sure to check out their live music offerings.
