Favorite Wine: 2008 Reisling
June 09-Did not visit the tasting room this time but had lunch at the restaurant. The 2008 Reisling is spectacular! Lunch was very good. Devil's Triangle for dessert is a must for the chocolate lover - we wanted to lick the plate!

Favorite Wine: All the sweet, fruit flavored ones!
June 09-Very generous tasting - they do not charge for it if you buy wine. We liked almost every wine we tried! It was rather bizarre however that we wanted to purchase a gift certificate/card to give to friends and they insisted that we not do it because we didn't know what wine our friends would want to purchase with it ??? They advertise gift cards on their website (which is an EXCELLENT, very informative website!)

June 2009 - We were kind of disappointed:-( Love the name and label but the tasting experience was not the best. The tasting room is a big metal warehouse building. We didn't feel very welcomed and the wines were just OK.
