Came in for a wine tasting and the place was busy (in a good way, service was stellar despite the volume of people having a great time.) I believe it was the wife of the owner made time for my wife and myself to try out everything. Their Riesling is VERY tasty, and without a doubt the 2nd best in the state. (so far) The rest of their wine lines are PURE CANDY! If you don't like the crowds so much you can show up earlier and still have a good time for a while before it gets crowded. This is a place that I would recommend sitting down and trying a glass of everything with a group of friends.
Recommendations for the people who never know what to get: (Dry means no sugar, which doesn't necessarily mean bitter.) (Sweet means sugar added, or sugar left over fermentation making it sweeter than dry.)
Recommend for people who like Sweet: Ruby Red Recommend for people who like Dry: Riesling, or Chardonnay

Owner Jim Kelly walked out to meet us when we pulled in with our motor home. He and the wine manager Dee were welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable. What a great find, a...
