For a party of 4 or fewer, a tasting of 5 wines was free, but their Seyval Blanc, a semi sweet white, was calling my credit card! All 5 I tasted were quite good. I especially liked being able to buy my bottle of chilled wine, have them open it and pour a glass so I could sit on the patio to enjoy it, then take it back in for them to use their Medieval-looking industrial strength wine bottle sealer on it so I could take the remainder home. Their tasting room is very comfortable and attractive, and the famous Kansas artwork that graces some of their bottle labels hangs on the walls, along with the history and story of the art.

They have a wide range of varieties to suit a range of personal palates. Kansas wines have come a LONG way from the earliest KS wineries of 20 years ago. Ed Irvine's international experience in agriculture has helped elevate their wine making, as has their Vintner who earned his winemaker's certificate through the enology program at the University of California, Davis - the top school in North America. Ed Jr. is an accomplished chef and brings his culinary expertise to the winery's amazing pizza selections! Ed and Cindy are extremely friendly and great at describing their wines regardless of your expertise in wine making.

Is it the best I have ever had nope but you can see the potential as they continue to improve. The service was on point, they have some great local art and goods that are pretty amazing. So if you get a chance to drive by and sit a relax, it maybe too hot outside but they have some very comfortable indoor seating. Good times with decent wine.

Service was great. The people there took their time to explain the different wine and ciders. And the food choices were awesome.

And because it's the summer of 2024, the cicadas were singing loudly in the trees.

I thoroughly (and by thoroughly I mean three bottles worth!) enjoyed the apple pie cider and bought a 4-pack to take with me back to Iowa. The service was outstanding as every server I interacted with was friendly and knowledgeable about the products. Prices are very reasonable.

The cozy, warm ambiance of the place makes it feel like the ideal place to unwind. I started with a wine flight that included a white, Moscato, and a sweet red. While they were a bit on the dry side for my super-sweet wine preferences, they were still enjoyable. The mulled cider, however, was the real star--absolutely delicious! We also ordered some snacks to share: a pepperoni flatbread and a charcuterie board. They arrived fresh and fast, and the server took the time to explain each item on the board, making the experience even more enjoyable. Everything was top-notch and super tasty. What really stood out was the friendly, knowledgeable staff, who made sure we had everything we needed. There's also a big patio that's perfect for summer months, offering a great place to relax and enjoy the outdoors with a glass of your favorite drink. Plates and water were readily available for self-service, which was a nice touch. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the area--such a great spot with the perfect combination of warmth, good food, and great drinks!
