We visited this Fox Creek as part of a bridal wine tour on the weekend. The entry into the winery was beautiful this time of the year, with blooming trees and lush greenery along the creek. The garden was beautifully done and make for great photos and the cottage was quite cute. It was a beautiful day so we were glad to be sat outside in their verandah. We went through their wine tastings, and was offered 2 different flights, with some of us choosing the reds over the whites. The white wines were unfortunately quite dull, not to most of the group's liking, though the reds were beautiful. Their food platters were fantastic too, with some great cheeses, dried fruits and cured meats. Unfortunately what really detracted from the experience was the passive aggressive nature of the staff member serving us.

The platters I organized ahead of time were BEAUTIFUL and so delicious. My friends were completely impressed. I loved that we had our own little area in the verandah overlooking the garden and it was beautifully set up for us. And, don't even get me started on the wines! They were fantastic (which I already knew)! The lovely lady that lead our wine tasting was knowledgeable, friendly and kept us in our allotted time frame. It was perfectly timed.
