While the patio isn't covered, there are a handful of umbrellas for the dozen or so tables. The staff were friendly and remembered where we were on the tasting journey.

The location is absolutely beautiful, with amazing views that make it a perfect place to relax and enjoy great wine. After reading some of the other reviews, I think it's worth pointing out that the winery does not provide food--and that's not uncommon in the wine industry. If you'd like snacks, simply bring your own. It wasn't a big deal for us at all. Overall, we had an exceptional experience and would definitely recommend Grassini to anyone looking for great wine, stunning scenery, and outstanding hospitality.

Finding ours was a little adventure--we went through an alley and made so many left-right-left-right turns that it honestly felt like an outdoor escape room.

Everything was really good, beautifully presented, and we had a great time. Definitely a fun stop while exploring the Funk Zone
