Favorite Wine: Think I bought a chardonnay.
The way to a visitor heart is through his stomach. This winery put out crackers and some nice cheeses, even Brie. Add to that a very knowledgeable and super enthusiastic hostess, and great chateau-ish historic atmosphere, and you've got something! In the past, other hosts have been equally knowledgeable. The friends I was with bought cases -- hence the five rating for wine.

Favorite Wine: none here
We (a few couples) visit wineries two to four times a year. The wine here is about average. Nice looking place. But, the people are rude. Interestingly, because of separate-visit cases of rudeness to two people in our group we dive right by Tomasello! We purchased hundreds of dollars of wine at Plagidos, Amalthea & Bellview -- all a pleasure to visit (and still free, too). 12/09
