Staff was so friendly and helpful, I can't rave enough about them! What got me was the view of San Francisco. Since I needed a break, I decided to go with a glass of their Cab Franc which they use Dry Creek gapes. For me, this hit the right notes. They have a regular food vendor on site and the prices are reasonable. Unfortunately, I wasn't hungry but if I was, I would have definitely ordered. I actually think of going back to this place. I could see being here during the week on a nice day, reading a book or doom scrolling with a glass of wine. There is something so zen about it that it's worth going back.

These won't last long in our household, so we'll be back soon for more. Farmstead is also a wine shop that carries an assortment of unique wines you're unlikely to find in big-box stores.
