When Stephen and I used to come to LA just to visit, we would always hit up Malibu Wines.
Off of Kanan and Mullholland, tucked away in the canyon on the way to Malibu, is this little gem of a winery.
You can do some tastings, then buy the bottles and find a table and sit yourself down for some evening, or afternoon (however you roll), drinking.
We packed a picnic of club sandwiches, fruit, crackers and cheese, some slutty brownies, and drove up on Friday evening.
They have valet (god bless america) for $14, or you can park somewhere nearby for free and take a shuttle.
You can only be granted entry to Malibu Wines if you park one of those two ways.
Make sure you bring your ID, because this is the USA afterall.
“BUT THE DRINKING AGE IN THE UK IS 18!”
Someone might have said that.
I can’t recall who…
I think it is funny, how we all of a sudden become loyal to whatever country does what we prefer.
We had an amazing day with my mom, bro, uncle, and my mom’s friends.
On weekend nights they have a live band, which means a lot of drunk dancing eventually happens.
It is prime people watching, let me tell you.
For the record, I was not one of the drunk dancers.
My moves are 100% sober, which is just a different type of embarrassing.

This is one of my favorite places! I’m actually hosting my friend’s bridal shower there next month. Have you tried Malibu and Vine yet? It’s owned by the same people, has the same vibe, but has a restaurant too and is a little less crowded 🙂
That seems like a great place to go! I’m not much of a wine drinker, but I love to people watch!
Although to be able to dance, I’d have to drink some of that wine!
Glad you guys had a great time 🙂
And I clicked on those ‘slutty brownies'(great name by the way!), and they look yummy!
One of my favorite places! Have you been to Malibu Cafe at Calamigos Ranch? It’s really close to Malibu Wines & they have an amazing bottomless mimosa brunch 🙂
Ha! I’m going there next weekend! Can’t wait! Shane and your moves are awesome!
I somehow lived in Malibu for four years and never went there (ok, fine, I was only 21 for about a year of that, but still!)… Time I get myself back to LA I guess 🙂
I will definitely have to check this place out! Thanks!

I can’t even with how Stephen looks at you. it’s the sweetest.
So nice! I’ve been to that winery during my last trip to LA last year. Loved, loved that place. I recommend it to everybody that wants to listen! 😉 Xo,
Seeing you two head-over-heals in newly wed bliss is my favorite!
Tipsy dancing, good wine, and family is just a bonus 😉
Glad you are not losing any time enjoying the summer back in the good ol’ USofA
My favorite place on EARTH! Isn’t Malibu Wines the best?

Soooo good to read your posts from the U.S.of.A! I’m excited for you….
Looks like a blast and what a pretty winery! It would be the perfect place for a wedding! Swoooon.
I seriously thought the link for valet was going to take us to the scene from Clueless where Alicia Silverstone says, “What’s the point? Everywhere you go has valet.” Even though that wasn’t the link, I thought it in my head and laughed. Gotta love wine tastings though!!
You all might as well be royalty…so much beauty.
And I kind of wish your brother had a youtube channel. So random I know but you can tell it would be a class A comedic relief..;)
Love your top! Where is it from? Also your top from your beautiful welcome home reception? 🙂
Seems like so much fun, gorgeous photos.
Ahh, you look so happy! Consider my cold, bitter heart officially warmed! <3
Things I love: wineries and drunk dancing

How did I not know about this place? I’m going to have to swing by the next time I’m down in socal!
You look so happy in all these pics – I’ll have to add this to my list of places I should visit!
Fun! I only spend 36 hours in Los Angeles last time I was there. I totally need to go back and check out places like this. What a nice place to spend an evening with family and friends.
Remembering to bring your ID with you for checks is a pain in the ass, haha. I’ve fallen out of the habit 🙂
thats where we had our wedding reception 🙂
These pictures are so beautiful. Looks like everyone couldn’t stop smiling!
Love from South Africa
Adding this to my list of places to visit in America! Looks like everyone had a really, really good time (Stephen seriously looks a lot tipsy…)
This place looks amazing! Can’t believe I never discovered it while living in LA!
Ok seriously, you and your fambam need to start a magazine or TV show called “How to Win At Life” – you guys always seem like you’re having such a blast!
