And, the manager there was incredible. He was very welcoming and offered up tastings and backstories for all their wine products! You can buy by the glass, have a seat and relax, or just sample (up to 3) and purchase items to go. Thanks to the outstanding service and tastings, we bought several bottles...:with the Chardonnay and seasonal Apple Cider fruit wine being a standout! Both were the perfect wines for us.

What a fun place! I had been to the mall and plaza locations of this winery, but not the main…read morelocation. I had no real idea what to expect in terms of the building, but I was familiar with their wines. There is a sign for the winery at the end of the road and you enter up a long driveway (with several signs warning about not bringing in outside food and drink). I had no idea that their grounds were as massive as they were! There was even a sign for a walking trail. I visited on a Monday in the winter, so I wasn't able to take advantage of their beautiful grounds, but after a great visit, I definitely want to come back in warmer weather and come for one of their events (or even just to enjoy some wine outdoors). They have a nice variety of wines. Many sweet, dry and fruit wines. They also have cocktails and other drinks. I like that more of the specialty establishments are starting to have extended offerings because it makes visiting more accessible to people who might not like wine or beer but still want to enjoy the company of someone who does or a specific event. I went in set on getting a wine slushie (they rotate their flavors, but every one I've tried has been delicious). They allow you to sample basically anything from their menu and you can order wine by the glass, bottle or as tasting flights. When I was there, they were still offering their Valentine's pairing which included four generous pours of red wines each paired with a gourmet chocolate. I really enjoyed the experience and everything was tasty. The service was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I asked questions about the wines, where the grapes are grown, how they come up with new blends and about events and they answered all of them. Overall, an amazing experience and a place I'll definitely be back to.

My BFF and I stopped in here on Veteran's Day and had the most bizarre experience. We walked past a…read moreman at the pizza counter and back into the winery and were never greeted or explained how the set up works, so we went back to stand around the wine bar for 5-6 minutes with no staff ever appearing. The room was empty besides 5 or so senior ladies who had no wine anywhere to be seen, so we weren't sure what was going on. We walked back to the pizza counter and the man we walked by when we first came in was nowhere to be seen, but another man had just walked in. He asked if we had been helped and we said no, we were trying to go to the winery. He told us to just head over there and he'd be right there. We go back into the winery and he comes behind the counter and kinda just stares at us and then we ask if they do tastings and he said "yes" and just stares again. We had thought he would elaborate, but he did not, so we asked how the tastings work, how many do you get to taste, etc. He says "I don't know, like 3 or 4." He does not offer up any suggestions or tasting notes, no background on the winery, etc. We each picked 3 wines to try and then asked to buy a bottle. All of the wines were actually really good and we settled on the Catawba to sip while we read next to each other. After about 10 minutes, the senior ladies all leave and the man who helped us went to go sit in the dining area of the pizza side to watch tv. It was just a weird atmosphere and no one was very friendly. The longer we were there, the more staff we kept hearing and seeing on the pizza side, but there was never any customers coming in until around the time we finally left. Since I did enjoy the wines, I would be inclined to pick up some bottles if I ever came across them. However, I wouldn't come back into the winery for them.

Engine house 25 is an old fire station that is also home to the Clemente museum. Wines can be ordered online for either store pickup or shipped to your home. I needed a basic Riesling wine for an event. I placed my order online and parked in their lot nearby to pick it up. You need to ring the buzzer at the entrance of the Clemente museum in during operating hours in order to pick it up. The man who greeted me found my order and while waiting for it got a fast glimpse of this wonderful museum dedicated to a Pittsburgh Pirate legend. All the wines are corked and labeled with their trademark or depending upon brand with the number or image of Roberto Clemente. I took my wine home, refrigerated it and once I uncorked it was able to sample some of its sweet goodness. The wine had a fruity taste to it and was indeed worth savoring. I'm grateful for the opportunity to purchase quality wine with good service and dedication to both an historic landmark and a notable Pirate player. Located on the cusp of Lawrenceville on Penn Ave, they have their own parking lot.

Most wines cost between 13-22 around this area. These wines were 35 - 60 per bottle. However all of the reds/whites were amazing. Pinor Noir was my favorite.

They provided us a sample of the sparkling wine after tasting was finished.

Since it was at a restaurant, I expected it to taste better than regular church fish fry. But it wasn't very notable. It did make me intrigued about the restaurant though. Overall, it wasn't the best fish fry I've had, but I appreciated their heart and service. We actually stayed a while and they didn't rush us out. I would definitely come back to try some of their regular food.

And this…read morelocation is fun because it is in the Westmoreland Mall and you can make purchases along with all of your other shopping. Or take a break from the chaos and enjoy a glass of wine. I stopped in primarily to get my Pour Tour sticker, so I knew I wouldn't be buying a bottle. One of my favorite things at Greenhouse is the Wine Slushie, but unfortunately, the day I was there the machine was down. Not to worry, they have tons of tasty options. I ordered the combo wine (I forget what they call it) where they pair some of their pepper wine with their sweet wine. It is absolutely delicious because the sweetness of the paired wine cuts down some of the hit of the hot one. It was a bit expensive at $10 a glass, but I guess since it was two wines it was more expensive than the other glasses. The store itself is nicely set up. There are more comfortable couches and chairs and then in the back of the store more traditional tables and chairs. They have a variety of wine themed gifts to purchase. A little of everything from toppers, bags, glasses, towels and even some shirts. The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable and genuinely seemed happy to be there. I really enjoyed my visit to this location and will stop in next time I'm at the Westmoreland Mall.

What I enjoy about Greenhouse is how personal each wine is bc they incorporate quirkiness and creativity not only in the flavors of their wines but also with the names and the labels. It comes out very cute. Ex: the sauced wine is a picture of a cat who seems "sauced." Who would refuse to buy such cuteness!?! They offer your typical PA wine from concordia, fredonia and niagara grapes, and they also have unique wines that are seasonal and specialty wines again with very cute names and labels. Great as gifts! My faves so far are the sauced (cranberry wine), tramp n the weeds, and the chocolate cherry. Their fruit wines are on point with the real fruit flavor that it's like drinking fruit juice. Could be dangerous. I highly recommend supporting this local winery. They also sell shirts and wine accessories.
