Vineyard Venture Tour & Tasting
Feel the sun on your face and the wind in your hair as we journey into the vineyard for an immersive tour and tasting…a private, 90- minute to 2-hour experience that will take you into the unique vineyards of our Small Lot Collection wines. Learn about the geography, weather, soil and growing characteristics of our blocks – with stops to sip and catch a breath. Sample select wines on site and immediately get a sense of the unique attributes of the vines in their environment as you taste and smell, compare one block to another, and experience with your senses what we mean by cold climate, soil-driven, devigorized, and more. Afterward, we’ll head back to the estate and enjoy a private, seated tasting of limited-production wines in our library.
