"We visited here as part of wine tasting tour and had the lunch here with wine pairing. Food & wines were fabulous and service was great. Would have liked if the different wines were explained as being served but otherwise it was brilliant."

"We visited this lovely winery as part of a three winery tour. It was the largest. We had a wonderful tour with Mila who spent over an hour with us, providing us with an informative tour and ending with a wonderful tasting of 5 wines! We even got a surprise sandwich each from their chef! It was harvest time so the place was busy. There was also a yoga class happening on the grounds when we arrived. Great idea! Yoga and then wine! Wonderful experience."

"We stayed there for one night, it having the perk of offering accommodation within a working winery. However, we didn't get a tour, didn't need one.
The rooms are very nice looking out onto the inner garden, that's nicely tended. Beds are comfortable, there's enough room for clothes and other space for storage, the bathrooms are well appointed and have a window.
The parking is on the other side of the road.
They don't offer cooked dinner (understandably) since there are very few rooms. They do, however, offer to prepare cold cuts or a salad or whatever you might want, that doesn't require instant on-site preparation in the evening.
We had a salad that waited for us ready made and covered in the dining room.
We took it out onto the covered terrace and enjoyed it al fresco while it rained all by ourselves, arrive we were the only overnight guests that evening. Beautiful!
The best part was that we were given access to a fridge fully stocked with wines they usually use for tastings. So, we enjoyed a tasting of some 8 wines (included in the cost of the accommodation/ dinner), at our own pace and choice, being able to compare the wines next to each other, unrushed. Will never forget this evening.
The only downlet was breakfast, when the rushed waiter kinda counted two slices of ham and cheese each, bread, jam and butter at discretion, coffee and tea, too.
But - despite the fact that the cooks were there and obviously had nothing to do (talking and walking at ease through the garden), we couldn't order any egg or anything else. That was it. They also didn't like us taking the plates to the terrace, which we did anyway, it was far too beautiful outside 🤷♂️.
Staff at the reception was very kind, the translate app helped 😉.
All in all tough, I can definitely recommend the experience, we loved it."
