While we are not currently conducting our weekly tastings, we are offering tasting opportunities, which are reservation-only occasions. Please see our emails, social media pages and our Events page for upcoming tastings and to reserve your space.
We also encourage you to make your own tastings from our Wine Stations. We offer a frequently-changing selection of six red wines, a white wine and a dry rosé in our two stations. Simply purchase a prepaid card, then select the size pour you want (1 ounce, 2 ounce or five- ounce glass pour). This option is available any time we are open, and we offer Happy Hour in the Wine Stations from 4:30 until 6:00 PM each day with all pours half price.
We have some prepackaged snacks available; you are also welcome to bring in your own food or carry out to enjoy in our spacious rooms or deck.
