"Best experience for us. We visited this place when they had their grape stamping event going. We enjoyed that event where they offer you picking grapes and later stamping them. It was very new and unique experience for us. Surprisingly once to you are done stamping, you can have them printed on a t-shirts provided by them. It was really a great deal. We also got a chance to taste different types of wine. This a really a nice place to have a fun one day visit."

"The people here are really friendly and the owner is an ex engineer turned wine maker that is able to talk about the process at a very technical level. It isn't that big of a place but it feels relaxed and the wine tasting is like a little adventure, moreso than at most wineries I have been to. They actually had a white port, something I never even considered would be brought into existence and after tasting it I wondered why I've never tasted it before. I am sure there are some wine snobs shaking their fist and rueing the day, but it was very tasty nevertheless. The most interesting part of the tasting is when they presented two of the same wines with the only difference being what they were aged in, either oak or stainless steel. The difference was amazing and we almost got into an argument over which was the superior aging media."

"We had such a lovely time here. We didn't do a winery tour instead we just got a bottle and enjoyed the weather outside. The wine was very nice and we were able to walk among the flowers. It's a dog friendly place. Our dog enjoyed it there too!"
