Although I'm not from the area, I've been a loyal customer of Filipo Marc Winery for about 7 years. What does loyal mean? I recommend them without hesitation. When I'm in the area, I'm always there making a purchase for myself or for others. I buy gifts for people who end up making a huge deal about how nice the gift was. I've been to many wine tastings, and recommended folks to Filipo Marc who ended up making their own custom bottles and labels and they themselves have become huge fans of the business. Over this past weekend, I was fortunate to be able to hold my birthday party there.

Read moreMy wife dragged me, along with two of my buddies and their wives out on a Friday night to go wine tasting. I was certainly not thrilled about the idea. However, it turned out to be a great time, in which I really enjoyed. I found Gerard to be humorous and entertaining, but very knowledgeable and passionate, as he ran us through his list of wines.

Needless to say, the experience was much better than I had expected. I highly recommend this place to newbies like myself, or for anyone looking for a fun night out with their partners or friends. Most importantly, their wine selection is excellent! Photo shared is of the fellas sipping our wine as our ladies went out on the town a few weeks later. Unprecedented...
Read moreMy family chooses this winery to host a fundraiser for our non profit organization. Each time is a unique experience. Gerard's presentation is informative, and very amusing. There's something special about being in a room full of friends and family, filled with laughter and some of the best wines I've ever tasted. I didn't enjoy every selection of course, because the experience covers the full range of taste. In fact, some of the laughter was generated by the expressions of people who found a particular selection was NOT suited for their palate. I'm already looking forward to organizing...
