Really a review of Cava Ocho’s vineyard Rincon De Guadalupe in the San Vicente Valley. We arranged a tasting since we are constantly out in that area(hour south of Ensenada and not in the Guadalupe Valley). What we expected was a tour of their facility and a tasting turned into a 3 + hour afternoon enjoying wine and baja with the owner Julio and family. Truly a wonderful experience. Spectacular wines. Wonderful setting. Fascinating history of wine making in Baja California. We look forward to visiting Cava Ocho — if they share Don Julio’s philosophy for service and quality, no doubt it will be spectacular.

While in Ensenada this weekend to participate in the Rosarito-Ensenada bike ride, we had the pleasure of dining at Cava Ocho. Cava Ocho is a warm yet elegant restaurant that started as a wine tasting room and evolved in to a hot dining spot. We came for the pizza and we received so much more. We started with the Ensalada RG, a mixed baby green salad with pears, tomatoes and feta cheese tossed with a bright Dijon vinaigrette. The salad was large enough to serve two people. The wood fired pizza(Serrano ham and arugula) complimented the salad perfectly. They serve a house salsa on the side. This incredible salsa was a compilation of dried chile de arbol in an olive oil base. Spooned on the pizza, the salsa highlighted the saltiness of the Serrano ham and the bite of the arugula. We chose a 2012 Sauvignon Blanc which was crisp and clean. There are six wines to choose by the glass and eight to choose by the bottle. The staff was attentive and very friendly. One of the owners, Aaron Guzman stopped by our table and gave us a brief background of Cava Ocho and the winery(Rincon de Guadalupe) which is in the San Vicente Valley. Aaron is truly committed to serving thoughtful, high quality food and wine that is also reasonably priced. This place is a true gem and we look forward to a return visit.

Cava ocho es una cava boutique de la vinicola Rincon de Guadalupe. Esta se encuentra en el puro centro de ensenada, cuenta con 9 etiquetas de vino para degustar. Cava Ocho se alio con La Stella Pizza para crear un menu mas sofisticado de sus tradicionales pizzas en un ambiente muy agradable y acogedor, un buen lugar para ir a charlar, tomarse una copita de vino acompañado de una buena pizza. Muy recomedable la pizza de chistorra con tomate deshidratado y queso riccota acompañado de un vino entre barricas
