Favorite Wine: Finale
Didn't care for his wines or his attitude. Bought my husband a bottle of Finale. Too much of a "plastic" atmosphere.

It has been a couple of years since I was there, but I enjoyed the tour & the relaxed atmosphere. Wine was too sweet for me.

Wine: Winery: Ambiance:
Favorite Wine: Rosso
This place was a bit too commercialized for my taste, I felt like I was in a mall. Staff was friendly, too long of a wait for dinner.

Grand River Cellars (written May 31, 2009)
Wine: Winery: Ambiance:
Favorite Wine: na
Staff was rude, they weren't that busy & it took forever to get waited on & once we did I had to hunt the waitress down to pay our tab. Didn't care for the wine & was very disappointed, especially after all of the advertising.
South River Vineyard (written May 31, 2009)
Wine: Winery: Ambiance:
Favorite Wine: Temptation
Absolutely loved the atmosphere. Very midevil feeling...kind of "forbidden". Only cared for one wine, Temptation & I loved the bottle. The girl that poured us had an attitude like we were bothering her. Would go back to again just because of the atmosphere.
