A spontaneous wine tasting
We stopped in for an impromptu wine purchase and ended up doing the wines tasting! As someone who is not familiar or educated on wines, I excited to learn a bit more. Our wine server, Jon, was so knowledge on the wines and the process of prosecution. He even recommended several wines for a first timer to try; a couple of his recommendations we ended up buying as well. The winery is intimate and a great space to delve into the world of wines without the the pressure of purchasing. I would highly recommend anyone to stop in for a tasting, if not, then the views from the patio out back of the water and miles of vineyards will definitely make it worth your while.

Long waits but great wine
This was the only winery doing wine tastings on Old Peninsula. There was a wait outside to get to stand in a line inside, and they were only serving 4-5 parties at a time. We ended up waiting 20-30 minutes total to have our wine tasting last maybe 15 minutes. We enjoyed the wine and bought two bottles, which made the wait worth it. Definitely would recommend if you don't know what kind of wine you like and are interested in trying a few!
