My boyfriend had a couple other varieties, a red and a white, and they were great too!

It kind of lived up to what I remembered for better or worse. Some of the dessert wines are pretty decent, but otherwise I find their standard wine to be unremarkable. Nothing quite tasted as anticipated based on the varietals and I also noticed a lot of their wine was bottled a remarkably long time ago (tasting and selling vintages that were in some cases almost 10 years old). Everything my wife and I tried other than their red chili dessert wine was just kind of "meh." Their cider is alright, but in my opinion slightly overpriced in cans (too much good craft cider you can get for about half the price they are asking). Honestly, I feel like the place is only as popular as it is due to the fact there are really only about 4 or 5 wineries in this area and this one kind of appeals to sweet wine drinkers and has a fun and funky vibe to it. If you enjoy solid dry red wine, spend more time hanging out at Vivac or La Chiripada and consider giving this one a pass. I don't think we'll be back.

My friend and I both opted for the flight to sample a few different wines. They had quite a lot of options, from red to white to rose, but I opted for mostly whites.

They have a huge variety of wines and only use grapes from New Mexico, which was a cool touch. They also let you sample as many varieties as you'd like, but they don't see glasses, so you can taste before you decide which bottles you'd like to buy. I would come back here in a heartbeat.
