Super, I loved it, I was there to watch the sunset, enjoying a delicious picnic accompanied by an interesting local wine. Everything was superb: the service, the location, the atmosphere-I highly recommend going.
My advice is to make a reservation, especially for the restaurant; it's quite popular.

For years I have had one of the best breakfast/brunch experiences at this winery.
The eggs Benedict especially was out of this world.
Unfortunately not anymore… Gone are the generous portions, crispy seasoned potatoe wedges, tasty salad side & rich hollandaise sauce.
As per my recent visit we now have generic bland potatoe cubes, 2-3 fruit slices as a side & a watered down hollandaise sauce. They also added spinach under the ham Benedict which ruins the flavor completely, WHY?
Maybe inflation caught up & this is their solution. At a grand total of 100$ for 2 people (having to add a ton of extras due to reduced portions) I am disappointed.
Service was good overall but I do not think I will be back, it is not worth it anymore.
Franchement j'ai lu certains avis négatifs avant d'y arriver, & j'ai un peu redouté notre visite. Mais nous avons commencé par la visite guidée avec degustation, & c'était très bien. Merci beaucoup Chloé.
We read the reviews before getting there & we're a bit worried by the bad ones. But we started with the guided tour & wine degustation & it was really very good. Thanks a lot Chloé
Visited around Christmas time for wine tasting & a tour. It was a super pleasant experience. Very well maintained & pretty locals, excellent restaurant, courteous staff & overall a great idea for a Sunday trip. Will certainly be back in summer to enjoy the outside too.
We overall had a great experience at this vineyard. We booked The Bistro for lunch & their cheese platter was one of the best we've had! The platter paired well with the selection of wines. The only downside was the cashier at the boutique. She was unfriendly & spoke bluntly.

Loved the food, the ambience, the service. We were there on a Sunday - accompanied by perfect weather. If you want to go, definitely make a booking - I am not sure there even is an option not to. If the weather is to your liking when you go - do make sure to spend some time walking around the grounds. Oh, & - enter their wine/chocolate shop at your own risk: you need a lot of self-control there - to my palate, the wines were absolutely irresistible & I was only limited by my credit card limit. :)
Lovely vineyard! Staff are friendly but our wine tasting guide Raudet was little annoying, as she complains too much about her day. I enjoyed the tasting of five different wines plus we get to keep our glass. That package was 22$. The bistro was unfortunately full therefore we couldn't eat there. The vineyard was big, & the rustic decor was beautiful. Overall, it was pretty good experience.
Beautiful mid September 30 degree + day. Went for an afternoon general wine tasting & left a little disappointed. Over $50 for two people for 5 very small tastings of each. They were poured rather quickly without getting a chance to properly savour the one before. Also, the 3 reds tasted similar to each other, could've swapped one for a rosé. Would've been more worth it buying a bottle, sitting on a picnic table & enjoying the views.
What a wonderful place! We had a great time here & enjoyed a cheese platter with selection of wines. We liked the William Blanc so much that we purchased a bottle at the store.

The food & service were good, but the restaurant had a serious fly problem. Flies kept landing on our food, with one even landing in our red wine. Additionally, we discovered a fly in our takeout box when we were finishing the leftover pizza at home, which was quite unpleasant.
Very nice place. The wine tasting was good & the actual wine bottles are fairly priced & super good. I tried almost all their wines & they are super good. As an ice wine enthusiast, i give them my seal of approval, their ice wine & erapteros wine is super delicious! The actual winery area is also really pretty & relaxing. Well worth a visit.
