All over the world! Actually, we import our juices through a broker. The grapes are sourced from California, Washington, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, Australia, Chili, Argentina, and Portugal.

Wine Tasting:

How does your wine tasting work?

You can taste any 4 of our wines for just $9.00. Each pour is about 1.5 ounces, and additional pours are available for $2 each. You will be poured one wine at a time, which you may enjoy at your leisure.

No, we are walk-in only.
We do not take reservations unless you’re booking a private space for a group of 10 or more.
We’re known for our fruit-infused wines, they don’t even taste like wine! Our servers will be happy to help you find something you’ll enjoy.

About Our Wines:

Where do the grapes come from?
The grapes are sourced from California, Washington, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, Australia, Chili, Argentina, and Portugal.
Yes, all our wines are gluten-free. We also have gluten-free pretzels for our gluten-intolerant guests, just ask your server.
Technically, no, as the product we use to clarify the wine has ingredients made from shellfish.

Batches/Make Your Own Wine

What is a batch?
A batch is 28-30 bottles of any one wine. When buying a batch from stock, you will receive 30 bottles. When making your own batch, we guarantee at least 28 bottles.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t work that way. The smallest quantity we can make at a time is 28 bottles.

No, as you are purchasing the entire batch of wine. Wines purchased by the case (12 bottles) may be mixed and will receive a 15% discount.

The only way to make a custom flavor is to combine 2 of our wines, which means you’d be purchasing 2 batches of wine and would receive 56-60 bottles.
The wine making experience is approximately 30 minutes. The entire wine making process requires 4-6 weeks from start to finish.
Appointments are required for the wine making experience and should be made at least 2 months before the finished wine is needed.

Events

What types of spaces do you have?
We have an upstairs seating area which is semi-private and can accommodate 10-20 guests. We also have a grassy area outdoors with picnic tables which can accommodate up to 80 guests comfortably.
We can accommodate private groups of 10-100 easily. Larger groups may be accommodated at the management’s discretion.
The winery is available after-hours for private events. Information regarding renting the entire winery is available here.
We are able to accommodate small outdoor weddings, however, we do not have indoor space sufficient to accommodate a sit-down reception.
We do not have the capability to provide food for events.
You are welcome to have your event catered or bring in your own food. We do not provide plates, utensils, etc. If additional tables are needed, arrangements must be made in advance.
It is illegal to bring outside beer and/or alcohol of any kind onto our premises.
Our winery is both family and dog friendly, however, we will not serve alcohol to minors under any circumstances.
You may hire a DJ or band for an outdoor event provided we are notified in advance. Noise levels will be strictly monitored. We do not provide sound equipment or extension cords.
You may arrive up to 1 hour in advance of your event to decorate, we just ask you let us know when you’ll be arriving. Please, no confetti or glitter, and no decorations that may be considered offensive – we are family-friendly.

You can find more information about our private event options here.
