The Experience

Here's what you can expect:

When you reserve a 1-hour tasting, each guest will navigate our carefully curated list with wines ranging in style from dry, semi-dry, to sweet. Rest assured: you'll find options to please any palate.

Book in advance for the weekend.

We may have some walk-in availability, but recommend a reservation so we know how many guests to plan for. We release a few weeks of dates at a time. If you don't see your date available, please check back later.

Experience wine in the space it's created in.

Tastings are hosted in our winemaking cellar, seated among our stainless steel tanks and barrels. This experience can accommodate groups of up to 10, with five per table. Due to the active winemaking in this area, the space can be chilly. Please dress accordingly!
