Live music on a sat evening with a beautiful view of the manicured property, we had a big table that they held for us ahead of time as we called an hour before getting there. They don't take reservations but if you give them a heads up, it'll be smoother for both parties. The place was so lively and everyone who served us were friendly and so accommodating! Our kids went outside and played catch while us adults relaxed and enjoyed the wines, you can see them from the massive windows. The food was wonderful, the goat cheese fondue isn't too rich like a traditional cheese, try it! The hanger steak was so tender and juicy, scallops were not overcooked. Honestly if you are in the area, take a peek at this place and try the local wines. The bottle prices are so fair! Not pretentious and the parking was plenty. Enjoy my friends and drink responsibility because it's absolutely easy to want to try ALL the wines here. (⁠⁠^⁠‿⁠^⁠)

Laurentia Vineyard and Winery is an absolutely gorgeous property, both inside and out. The entire…read moreestate is immaculately clean, and the interior features warm, homey woodwork that sets a beautiful, welcoming tone. The outdoor area is incredibly spacious, offering everything from a covered patio to seating right down by the vineyard with umbrella coverage. Whether you need an intimate two-seater, a large table for a group, or a standing-style arrangement around covered barrels, they have a space for it. They were even setting up for live music the night I visited, which added to the great atmosphere. What really struck me was how well-run this establishment is. Large venues can often be a logistical nightmare, but Laurentia operates masterfully. They use a controlled seating and walk-up ordering system for everything--wine, coffee, and food--which keeps things moving efficiently without feeling chaotic. The friendly staff then bring the food right to your table. Speaking of the staff, their work ethic and rapport are truly exceptional. You can tell they are proud of the operation and genuinely enjoy working with one another. As for the menu, the Syrah was exactly what I was hoping for and thoroughly enjoyable. The Chicken Gnocchi was excellent--cooked to a perfect al dente and packed with delicious pieces of chicken, bacon, and asparagus. It was perfectly balanced and beautifully presented; I intended to snap a photo but just couldn't wait to dig in! I finished the evening with coffee and the Key Lime Cheesecake. Restaurant coffee is often an afterthought, but this cup was wonderfully smooth and delicious. It was the perfect pairing for the cheesecake, which was incredibly fresh, perfectly set, and topped with beautifully ripe strawberries and a strawberry sauce underneath. (A quick, honest note for picky eaters: it didn't come with the mango puree that was advertised, but it was so delicious I didn't mind at all).

You order at the bar and you can either sit inside or outside. We sat out on the deck, there was a nice breeze and it's a pretty view. We got the bourbon cab and it was on the sweeter side for a cab, not bad but I don't think we would get it again. We also ordered the chicken bacon flat bread, which was delicious!

Inside is a large room with a central fire place. Real wood burning. And a 2nd room that can handle overflow or a party. Staff is friendly. You can order lunch/dinner. They have pizza and other foods. It's very well rounded. Parking is easy in their lot. Plenty of seating. Prices are about average. $12 for specialty drinks. $7 for a glass of wine. Lots of fun. Get a bottle of wine and relax. In the summer enjoy the music and patio.

The last time it was very warm inside but the grounds outside are very nice. I had a wonderful Musette wine. We had purchased a bottle of this and two bottles of the Gwertztraminer. It was recommended by a nice young lady at Baci to come here. She said that is from the area and this is her place to visit when it comes to Gwertztraminer. She wasn't kidding, it was a very good wine. When I sampled the Musette, I smelled it and said American Oak? she smiles with a yes. What is incredible is that all of the wine that is available is all sourced from the estate property. She said the building next to the winery is where they make all of the wine. I plan on stopping back the next time we are in town. Good service and great wine.

Stopped in on a warm Sunday (for March). We had our dog so I specifically called ahead and asked if…read morethey were dog friendly. She said yes, and then put me on hold to ask her manager if we could sit on the upper patio since it wasn't very busy. She said they would make an exception, so we drove out from another winery. After finding a table off to the corner (there were only two other tables occupied at the time)- the waitress said we had to move across the "parking lot" to an open gazebo that was clearly not set up for service yet. So we moved, but since we were in nowhere land we decided to just put the dog in the car to enjoy our wine back on the patio. I understand if you are not dog friendly, but I did call ahead and wouldn't have showed up if I knew we weren't going to be sitting within distance to enjoy the atmosphere. As for food - we ordered the artichoke dip and it had about 3/4 cup of dip - the rest was a chunk of bread. Margarita pizza was good. We'd come back again, but bummed how the evening went.

It was cooked perfectly, and I enjoyed eating it in their outdoor seating area, in a grassy location nestled under the trees. Beautiful setting, with lots of plants and flowers.
