Favorite Wine: All of them
Take the time to visit this hidden gem. It's hidden because the Lake Eire Wine Trail chose to throw this winery out of their advertisements due to some snooty customer's complaints. Give yourself and hour to sit and enjoy the wines, as well as the stories that Mr. Watso tells. We recommend doing the full flight of tastings - you get to sample ALL of the wines. Often we go to a winery and only like 1 or 2 of the wines we sample. Some are too dry, others are sickly sweet. We can honestly say that we enjoyed EVERY SINGLE WINE. Don't come here if you are rushed, or expecting some state-of-the-art tasting room. Come with patience for the state-of-the-art wines. You won't be disappointed! This is probably one of the only wineries on the Lake Eire Wine Trail that we will visit, and buy from, time and again.
