Very interesting and fun tour of this winery. The wine tasting was informative, and the Reisling was delicious. Definitely put it on your list of things to do in Galena.
We enjoyed our trip to this winery. The tour was interesting. They had great variety of wines at reasonable prices. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The patio was a great place to enjoy wine and take in the scenic views!
We randomly stopped by the vineyard on our way back to Galena from Apple River and it was such a great experience. We did a wine tasting then purchased a few bottles of wine, some cheese, crackers and summer sausage and all hung out in their lawn. They have a beautiful view. Perfect relaxing afternoon. Delicious wine too!
We were impressed with the wide variety ofwines they produced. The tour was short, but interesting. The winery is located about 10-15 min outside of Galena, and the drive out there is beautiful. Fun thing to do when visiting Galena.
The vineyard is a beautiful and fun place to visit! The tasting room employees are very friendly and will help you pick the perfect wine to purchase or sample. They offer chilled bottles that you may purchase and enjoy on the beautiful deck. They offer premade cheese trays or as we like to call them adult lunchables. They have crackers and blocks of cheese to purchase as well. And even supple cutting boards and cheese knives. The view from the wrap around deck is outstanding! They offer a variety of special events throughout the year all posted to their website.
The tasting room was very crowded when we arrived but we found a spot for two and proceeded to taste. If you want knowledge on the wines, I would suggest waiting until you have some one on one time because basically they just asked what we wanted and poured. The variety is very good and price reasonable. Following our tasting we enjoyed a glass of our favorite on the veranda enjoying the countryside view. Very comfortable -- I'd go again.
I have toured other vineyards before, but always find it interesting to see how each one is different. We arrived 30 minutes early for the tour, so we did a wine-tasting first. That was fun and the server was nice and knowledgeable. The tour was interesting and informative. They have a nice porch and seating if you would like to relax and enjoy a glass of wine as well. Wine is tasty and we ended purchasing some to take home with us.
Great view great staff . Great wine ! The staff works very hard there run run run. . Seems to be not enough people working .but all had a smile on there face and seemed to love there job !It was very busy !But I'll give it 5 stars . Tip the ladies well !
We did the visit and tasting at their retail store downtown. LOTS of wines to choose from. Even two tastings wasn't enough to try them all. If fruity and sweet is what you like, they have many to choose from. But the regular reds and whites are also amazing. Stop by and taste for yourself.
I went here with my fiancé and a friend. We each had a wine flight (choice of 3-4oz wines) for $10. It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon and a musician was playing on his guitar. The settling and wine were our favorite part of our day trip to Galena. I would highly recommend the Mead wine!
