Tasting room is very small so this was the first time after trying a couple previous times we found room to sit at the bar and taste. I really wanted to like the wines more since it was a good experienece but to my palate they were pretty average for Murphys nothing really stood out as a must buy. We left with a couple bottles wines but will stick to our favorite wineries in the area for future tastings.

Outside surrounding the space you'll find picnic tables and other seating scattered about. The day I visited it was a bit chilly and they even had blankets placed around to help keep us warm. Such a nice touch that went a long way. I didn't spend much time inside except for when I went to the bathroom, but it was nice and cozy, too. This place is family owned and operated, and of course, everyone is extremely knowledgeable about their wine, where it comes from, and all that stuff. My friends and I got flights, so we could try a little bit of everything. Each new wine our waitress poured came with a back story and I loved it. All of the wine we tried was great and I can't remember exactly what they were, but my favorites were the white wines, I know that. While they don't have food, we were welcome to bring food from outside so we grabbed a few pizzas from down the street to munch on while we were there. I'm not from the area, but I do visit every so often and I can totally see myself returning whenever that day comes.

Unlike other tasting rooms they do not charge a flat rate tasting fee. In fact, they don't charge, trusting that you will want to buy a bottle or two instead, out of enjoyment or guilt (saying this in jest - their wine is perfectly nice and the guys there do know their wine).

Not sure how much tastings actually cost, but I believe it runs the gamut of most of the fees in the area which average about $15 per person. The owner didn't say how much the fee was but that we would "work something out." I tried about 6-7 different wines, my favorite being a rare Italian varietal (can't recall the name) but at $70 a bottle it was out of my price range.

We felt home within seconds and left with delicious wine (must try the barbera!!!), a fantastic experience and what felt like lifelong friends. My husband and I became Instant fans! Vina Moda became a must-stop for every future visit. 10/10 recommend!
