We've never been to the Napa Valley wine country, but this vineyard is the next best! Luis greeted us outside as we arrived at the opening hour and we had the full plus hour of Luis' attention, his thorough explanation of the wines and his answers to all our questions during the wine tasting.

We picked our favorite wine -- Dry Bienvenue which is a light, crisp, effervescent white wine. We also added some 2021 Redlin which is a bright, velvety rose. We couldn't have had more fun or picked a better winery to visit while in Fredericksburg. Luis even carried our boxed wines to the car on our exit.

We were warmly welcomed by Tyler, who had previously hosted a free wine tasting at the Fredericksburg Inn on Friday and had given us a discount sticker to use. Even though we forgot the sticker, he still honored the discount and even remembered us, which made our experience feel extra special.
Out of all the wineries we visited, this was by far the best! The hospitality, the wine, and the overall atmosphere made it a standout. We truly enjoyed our time here and canât wait to go back. Highly recommend visitingâyou wonât be disappointed!
