A winery outside of Hershey. Nice wines. I got a feeling that money was important the wine second. It was a busy day for them and I might not be fare. We visited 5 wineries and kept forgetting this one.

A boutique winery in Hershey. A very unique experience for me. A very personal tasting experience where you are greeted at least once by all the personal and seated at a table and enjoy a tasting at your own pace. Loved it. A must visit.

A very small rustic winery that is always fun to visit. I believe they are offering food now as well. Good wine just not a very large selection. Especially worth a visit if you enjoy off the map kind of places.....which I do.

A newer winery with a European flavor. This became my 50th Pa winery I visited so it will always have a special place in my mind. I even received a free wine glass to mark the occasion. Must see if in the area.
