Ambiance:
This was one of the first wineries we went to. It has a beautiful view and great ambiance. The wines are pretty good. Remember, Nortons are a wine that most people love or hate. It's not my favorite Norton, but remember that's subjective. I did really like the other wines, so don't skip this winery based on one wine alone. Try it, you might LOVE it. It's a beautiful place to go and the people are very friendly.

Ambiance:
A great one to go to. It's also very close to Unicorn Winery, so a day trip with 2 wineries close together makes it nice. They have recently (over the last 2 years) added a bigger tasting room. The people are friendly. There's a cute little gazebo outside for visitors. There's a shaded area that makes visiting in the summer nice. A good amount of room for the kids to run around. We enjoy it!

We love the wine here! Chris Pearmund does a great job with his wine. The reds are all wonderful and the whites are great too. There's a play corner for the kids and a beautiful view especially in the spring and summer when it's warm out. They have a barrel room where they've been known to have special pairings. It's a fun place and I would recommend it to anyone. Be sure to try the Vin de Sol if they have it when you go. It's nutty and delicious!

Ambiance:
The people here are so sweet. They're Greek, and are just very warm-hearted. They have very interesting wines with lots of herby notes. We definitely enjoy it! They have the Rechina (I hope I spelled that correctly). It's definitely different, but fun to try. Not a whole lot of running around room for kids, but honestly...the people are just so nice, I feel comfortable having my daughter in there. I know that they won't be offended.
