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.

This is not a wine bar - you cannot buy a glass of wine, nor can you buy a bottle to split there on site. But you can have a tasting every time you go in! They have five wines at a time available for tasting that change weekly. So every time you go, it's a new experience! The staff have so much fun showing off their wines, telling the stories of origin, and helping people experience new flavors! You are allowed to bring snacks and tasting bites of all kinds into the shop! Recommended: a variety of cheeses, a dark chocolate, a salty chip or cracker, even some prosciutto! Very affordable range to purchase their ever-changing supply. Usually between $15-$35! They also sell local art, always on display. So if you're an artist yourself, maybe give them a shout!

It was a great evening :-) There were many different (and some odd) wines to try. I'm not a wine connoisseur, so I won't go into that. But I did enjoy the recommended wines we tried. The space for karaoke was much like a hanger, probably because the whole building is basically something like a small aircraft hanger converted to a winery. The insulated walls and high ceilings made the acoustics a bit challenging, but the mood of the people and the fun made up for that. Kitty, the DJ, kept things moving and on track, and there wasn't a single break in entertainment the whole evening! They don't have a kitchen, apparently, so we chose not to sample anything from cold plate or warmed food menu. In all, two thumbs up!!
