Loved this place! So after a day of wine tasting I can truthfully say, everything I tried was awesome. Went here as part of a mystery weekend where picnic items were collected along the way, ending here, where we ate. The owners created the winery as part of a retirement and aim to keep it small, which enables them to give you that personal touch. We will be going back here in the future and have passed the details of this wonderful place to all our friends. Thank you - this was the highlight of our day.
