This tour was one of the best tours we’ve done! It was very small group and the wineries were amazing. The first one was exquisitely beautiful for the wine tasting. The second one was a lot of teaching and Tasting great wines. The third one had an amazing view and the owner/winemaker was fantastic. She even took us out to see her vines and explain how she manages them. Her wines were amazing. The lunch Steven (our guide) served was delicious. I will definitely do this tour again!!!

Cortina was extremely knowledgeable. She provided Interesting facts about wine, the places we were going and the wine makers. She instantly made everyone feel comfortable and got to know each person individually! By the end of the trip everyone was talking and celebrating with each other and she was a major reason for this. I would recommend this company and her to anyone interested in doing a wine tour!

Everything from the communication before the trip to the winery venues selected was excellent. Karina was so engaging and knowledgeable - I feel I really learned alot about the region which was new to me. The day was very well organized and the 2 other couples on the tour were great. By the end of the day it felt like we were old friends! I would definitely do this one again to see some different wineries. All in all a fabulous day!

Loved the entire day, all parts were our favorite, picked up at our house and went to 3 very different and good wineries. Loved meeting Sean, the wine maker, and all was exactly as promised and expected. This area reminded me of Sonoma about 30 yrs ago and that’s a good thing. You will not be disappointed in this adventure.
