I prefer reds, so it definitely got better as the tasting went along, but the whites were still tasty. As Peter said, "it's Summer in a glass." The location is beautiful.

An Absolutely Amazing Experience!…read more Presqu'ile Winery was absolutely amazing! We visited to celebrate my daughter's 21st birthday, and it couldn't have been a more perfect setting for such a special milestone. The atmosphere is beautiful, relaxing, and truly unforgettable, and both the food and wine were incredible. A special shoutout to our server, Natalie, who was absolutely wonderful! She was friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and made our celebration feel extra special. The entire staff was fantastic and made us feel so welcome from beginning to end. Between the beautiful atmosphere, amazing food and wine, and outstanding service, Presqu'ile Winery gave our family an experience we will always remember.

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.

My review regards an interaction on the business side: we fell into a bit of a bait and switch. After the tasting we were talked into joining the club, with assurances that they would contact us to select the wines we would received and also that if it wasn't for us, it was easy to drop out. I honestly forgot all about it. Two months later, I received a receipt for a wine order about to be shipped, so I contacted them to see if I could stop the order because I actually don't drink these days. I got the rather surly and impertinent response "But you barely joined a month ago." The cost of the "complimentary tasting" turns out to have been a two-shipment minimum. I don't recall hearing that but had I I probably would not have agreed--I'm not into these kinds of commitments. In short, a caution about signing up for their club. They'll be unusually desperate to keep you.

Good pours and all the wines were low alcohol. They try and make them as natural as possible and are smaller batches than bigger wineries and labels. Friendly service as well. My only critique are the stools, they were really uncomfortable so sitting there for the whole tasting was not fun. We purchased one bottle and could have maybe purchased a couple others but we opted not to. I will also mention that there was a slight push to try and buy bottles at the end. Stopping short of saying "you should buy some bottles" but a lot of "nudges" and "hints" about buying bottles. We would definitely come back to try other pours.

This is an interesting, woman owned/winemaker boutique winery focusing only on Grenache wines. If you like Grenache, and we do, you'll most definitely get a deep dive into them here. The tasting room is rustic and quaint. Joaquín was a gracious host and poured for us a '23 Grenache Blanc, and several other Grenache reds from various vineyards and produced with varying methods (whole clusters, co-fermentation, etc.) Good aromas and flavors on everything. Enjoyed several enough to take some bottles home with us. Overall, a nice, unique experience and would highly recommend to any Grenache wine fanatics.

What a lovely way to watch the leaves sway in the autumn breeze while sipping on a glass of wine…read more This winery is host to a vast vineyard, large open event spaces, intimate sitting areas, and a working farm with chickens, goats, and wild birds (as well as coyotes, raccoons, opossum, rabbit, and deer in the wild landscape). THE FLIGHT We had the pleasure of trying a flight of bold reds & crisp whites. Standard Tasting Flight was $30 for six 1-oz pours. We felt tipsy halfway through so it was worth it. I noticed that most of the wines in this red selection hovered around 14% so it's no surprise we got giggly after a few. Our favorite choice in this flight was Red Handed. It's a Central Coast wine that's a Cabernet Franc-heavy Bordeaux with chassis notes and flavors of plum and blackberry. Their 2023 Cabernet Franc came in second. It's a balanced, dry red with hints of black cherry, plum, and charred strawberry jam toast. Service was casual and friendly. Sip in the experience slowly and enjoy every moment without feeling rushed. Or take a walk around the grounds and feel like you're off in the countryside in a very faraway place. Although there are gourmet snacks for purchase on-site, I recommend packing a picnic to complement your wine palette so you can pair the wines with the foods you love. Not only will it help you discern which vintage you enjoy the most, but what you'll enjoy with your special meal when you take home a bottle (or a case). NOTE Old Creek Winery is CLOSED Tuesdays & Wednesdays. Call to make a reservation to ensure a good experience. Kids 3-12 are NOT permitted. Dogs on leashes are ok.

I wish they had misters around the seating areas, especially since they already have them near the outdoor bar. The couch cushions also looked like they needed a good cleaning. My boyfriend and I tried the sparkling wine tasting four 1oz samples for a $30. The peach one was my favorite, but $30 for only 4 oz total feels very expensive when a whole bottle is around $35. We ended up getting a bottle and had to ask for an ice bucket because the wine wasn't cold enough. There are also almost no food options besides some overpriced snacks. Many people brought their own food, which I wish I had known before coming. The server seemed tired and didn't explain much about the wines unless we asked questions. Overall, nice views, but for the price and experience I can't give more than 3 stars.

The most honest review of Casa Dumetz begins with a warning to AVOID this place at all costs. While…read moreall advertising would suggest this is a friendly, female-focused winery, all staff members our group encountered seemed to be the exact opposite. Our group of 5 all ordered $30 wine tastings where we were not allowed to actually select the wines to taste. When I asked what wines would be included, the server identified several on the menu and unfortunately only half of these ended up being included in the final tasting. As our group began to enjoy our tasting, the staff unexpectedly took our heater away to warm a 2 top table without ever asking our group if we still wanted the heater (we did, it was 50 degrees out). One person in our group brought out a leftover bite of baguette from a previous stop in town and was QUICKLY alerted by the owner with the wag of a finger and note that "they sell food there and she can't bite her own food." The owner waited until my friend put her small bite in her purse before walking away. When checking out, the server told us we'd need to pay via one card only (fine) and proceeded to watch closely as my friend chose her gratuity option (rude). Although we selected a nice 20% tip on the screen prompt, the actual math shook out to a 24% tip without us ever agreeing to it. Short story: - Too expensive - Rude - Performative, white-centric feminism - Not worth visiting when there are so many other great options close by
