That was no problem for us, since we were hungry and had brought a pizza with us. We figured we would sit outside, especially since it was a beautiful fall day, and enjoy our pizza with a glass, or plastic cup, of their Cabernet. Before heading out, the gentleman who greeted us invited us to go ahead and check in, so we did. Upon checking in we paid the $20 for each tasting and another $16 for two cups of Cabernet, then went outside to enjoy our pizza, wine and the view. About 15 minutes had passed and the gentleman came out to let us know it would be another few minutes while the group who had been there when we arrived wrapped up. He was kind enough to offer us a tipping off of the wine and some bits of dark chocolate. We waited another 10 minutes or so and decided to go inside to see if we could begin our tasting. We were told it would be another five minutes or so. At that point we were getting tired of waiting, the gentleman was becoming testy (we don't think at us, but more at the guy leading the tasting to the group there before us), and we were not impressed at the Cabernet we had had already, so we decided to leave. We considered trying to get a refund, but the greeter was nowhere in sight and the tour guide had evidently stepped into a break room to have a snack. So much for our guided tasting. We forfeited the $40 and left. We were looking g forward to this experience, but were very disappointed.

ZERO STARS!!!! Our group had an extremely disappointing and…read moreunprofessional experience at Rushland Ridge Vineyards and Winery in Jamison, PA. We were a group of 30 African American professional women who had called ahead to reserve space for a private outing. From the moment we arrived, the man at the counter made it clear that we were not welcome. He was dismissive, made rude remarks, and refused to serve us. His assistant joined in with comments that were discriminatory and inappropriate -- one remark being, "We only serve small parties of billionaires." It was obvious they did not want our business. As we decided to leave, staff followed us out to ensure we exited the property, which only confirmed the disrespect and bias we felt. This experience was deeply disappointing and unacceptable, especially considering that our group had come ready to support a local business in good faith. We do not recommend this establishment to anyone who values professionalism, respect, or inclusivity.

As soon as we arrived the single staff member basically turned us away. He said he could not accommodate our group (even tho our arrival was already confirmed). We tried to make the best of the stop by at least patronizing. I personally asked to buy a glass of Niagara (from the printed list). I was told all he had was what was on the counter. His demeanor was off-putting and almost disgusted. We were a group of black women. We are all professionals and respectful. It's hard not to assume his lack of interest in our business and poor service was related to our race. We all left without spending a dime. No need to be where we're not wanted.

The live music was also a great addition. I can't wait to come back during warmer weather and check out the outdoor seating!

Thought it would be cool because it's local. I won't visit again. Felt rushed. Unwelcoming vibe. I even attempted small talk, and my husband did as well when he asked about the main location (it's in York). She did not ask about what I thought of the wines. I did attempt small-talk by discussing the tastes, but she did not go into any explanation about the wine, grapes, or anything. She poured a wine, walked away to get the next ones, and completed that process until it was done. The people with another representative seemed to be engaged and enjoying their experience, so that's wonderful, but I won't visit again which is unfortunate because it's convenient. Luckily there are plenty of spots for adult beverages within walking distance. Try those. The one star comes from the fact that it's clean and the awards on display are cool.

Beyond the normal wines like Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot noir and chardonnay there are a lot of fruit forward wines that are fun to test and take home. My wife and I had a pleasant time on a Saturday afternoon each with a flight of 6 wines for tasting. Were they all winners? no, but I say that because wine and taste are subjective. That's the fun of these things and clearly some were winners as we took home several bottles. I had to try the Elderberry - shades of a certain Halloween movie by frank Capra- and found while it was sweet, it wasn't cloying and the dandelion wine, which had, a buttery pineapple taste was very nice. So in short, if you have an interest in wine, take time for the visit. Experimenting is fun and you may well take home a nice surprise.

Our hostess for the day was the owner of the winery, she was so friendly and knowledgeable to talk to. In addition to the 6-flight tasting, she was so hospitable and passionate about her creations that she graciously offered us a few extra tastings of new options.

We were there the Saturday the day before Mother's Day - me, my husband, and two kids (6 yo, 18 mo). We sat inside because the weather was gross outside. We went back this past Saturday to take my parents who were in town and love going to wineries. The kids were with us. As we all know, this Memorial Day Weekend had awful weather. It was high 40s and raining sideways. We got there and the person (not sure if server or owner) said we were not allowed to sit inside with the kids. I asked how that could be given our experience to the exact opposite 2 weeks ago? I was informed that it said so on their website. But not to worry! We could sit outside in the frigid, rainy weather with an 18 mo old to eat. There were heaters after all - 8-10 ft above our heads. I checked out the website since apparently it said kids could only sit outside. When you navigate to "visit us" it has a picture of happy kids frolicking in the grapevines. Kids are welcome, enjoy a picnic, etc. etc. Buried within it says that the tasting room and veranda are reserved for adults, and that dogs are not permitted in the tasting room or veranda. So look, I get that some people want to go places and be in a kid-free bubble. I'm a whole adult outside of my kids and will happily go places that are kid-free so long as I have childcare. I'm also a respectful parent and if an establishment prohibits kids, I'm not going to try to take them there. For example, there is a winery near PNC that very explicitly states no children - on their website, on the signs in the parking lot, on signs at the entrance... so we didn't take the kids. But to say families and kids are welcome, to allow us to sit inside without ever mentioning that it was reserved for adults and this was an exception, and then to tell me while the dining room was 75% empty that my 18 mo old had to sit in cold and rainy weather because kids are inconvenient... Not great. Therefore, we didn't stay because I can find somewhere else to have good wine where people can make the empathetic decision to treat my kids like humans.
