Beautiful grounds, with such great outdoor seating and things for kids to do as well. The owner was outside when we seated ourselves, and he shared his story and told us a bit about the winery. The process, grapes and how they run it. Great guy and very dedicated! It's a lot to do in retirement but they seem to be enjoying it. His wife came out to ask us about tastings , which they do for free! All 12 on the list. The reds were better, I'm just not a white drinker. The whites I was told were sweeter. Pretty good pours too! Great to try so many. The Syrah was my favorite. The price of the bottle was only $21. I got a glass as she gave me so many tastings. We bought a bottle too. They also give you little snack bags which was a nice gesture, little crackers. Inside they had some little gifts things, cute stuff. Loved how clean it was and they were so organized and quick , better service than a lot of bigger wineries I've been to .Sometimes the smaller the better!!

We stopped in on a Sunday while traveling through town. There is a specific Sunday brunch menu only…read moreoffered on Sundays. It was a beautiful day so we sat outside on the patio. I think we were the only patrons at the time. Our server Elizabeth was very friendly and attentive. We were not planning on tasting any wine as we were on a road trip but she mentioned the tastings were small so decided to share a flight. We chose reds. The wine was primarily sweet so not our preference but it was fine. My husband ordered THE SANTA FE / 22 Scrambled eggs, roasted potatoes, bacon, onions and pork green chili. It was quite tasty. I will say $22 for a single burrito with no sides is pricy. I ordered SMAVO TOAST / 18 Two over-medium eggs seasoned avocado on freshly toasted artisan bread accompanied by blistered tomatoes. The eggs were cooked perfectly but the avocado was just spread on a thick sourdough roll cut in half. It was way too thick and needed toasted. It had 3 cherry tomatoes cut in half. It just needed more seasoning and maybe some micro greens or something added. And again, $18 for just avocado toast is just too expensive. However, we were very impressed the chef came out to ask us about our meal and asked for feedback. I provided feedback on the SMAVO and she was super receptive. Very nice and professional. This place looks like it has great reviews so I think their main menu must be on point. I appreciate the customer service!

At our arrival, we were warmly greeted and welcoming by who appeared to be the owner of the place. We appeared to be the first customer of the day. it was sunny with no clouds in the sky; it was a perfect weekend for a quick getaway to a nearby mountain resort. As soon as the owner started to pour us some samples of wines, a slew of people came, one after another, as if we drew the crowd into it. What a great feeling. The wines as well as the customer service were quite good might be an understatement. Running a beautiful winery in this kind of beautiful setting (a few of the pictures posted on this page were taken/done by me) is always someone's dream. YOU SHOULD CHECK IT OUT!

We had our 50th reunion and the facility worked very well for us. We had three functions scheduled here during the weekend. Friday night was a cash bar and finger food. The cash bar was the most reasonable one I have ever used. Glenlivet was $5.50 and I am used to paying more like $10 for this premium single malt. Saturday night was dinner. Menu was specified as Beef Medallions, Abbey salad with blue cheese crumbles and chocolate lasagna. I liked that there was none of the chicken, beef, fish or vegetarian crap. I presume that if someone needed vegetarian that they could call in or just get by, but I've seen too many places where the service gets held up trying to get the right plate to the right person. This system works. Likewise, the salad came already dressed with blue cheese crumbles on the table for those of us who liked to augment the excellent flavor with bursts of cheese. There was no pasta in the desert, it was good and had a clever name. Sunday morning brunch was buffet style with an omelet station. I had an excellent omelet, the hash browns and bacon were offered from warming trays and seemed fresh. I was planning on the omelet and avoided the rest. One of the things I liked is that the price of $120 per couple was all-inclusive, I didn't have to figure out what I was going to attend when I made my reservation. The only quibble I had was the name tags could have used a larger font and a much bolder largest font for first names. We are old people with bad eyesight and failing memories and we see our classmates only every five years or so. Although I might come annually now, I had such a good time.

While the rest of my family tried the wines, my partner and I opted to play several rounds of Cornhole outside. It's a great addition to a winery and definitely made it more fun (I'm sure it would've been better with some wine in our systems!). The guy who helped my family out was super friendly, chatty, and attentive. The place was spotless, well decorated (but not overly decorated), and the view was really nice.

What an incredible experience from beginning to end!…read more Our trip from California started with Sharon, who helped us with our reservation. She was warm, patient, and extremely helpful in making the modifications we needed. From that first interaction, we felt like we were in good hands. When we arrived, Rainey was thoughtful and accommodating, especially since my wife and I were traveling with her parents, who needed a little extra support and assistance. Her kindness was greatly appreciated. Then we met Susan in the gift shop...an absolute gem. We immediately connected when I mentioned that my late mother's name was also Susan. I asked if she knew the meaning of her name, and she replied, "Lily." That stopped me in my tracks because the book I'm writing about my mother is titled The Lily of the Valley. I promised Susan that when it's finished, I'll send her a copy. In fact, our conversation inspired me to sit down and write while we waited to board the dome train. Once aboard, Thomas, our server, was awesome. He was knowledgeable, informative, personable, and made us feel less like customers and more like family. His service added so much to an already memorable ride. The scenery is spectacular, but what really made this experience special were the people. Sharon, Rainey, Susan, and Thomas each contributed something memorable to our day. A truly wonderful experience and one we highly recommend. It was absolutely worth the investment...and gave us memories we'll carry home to California with us. Truly a happy ending and we' come again. LOL!
