这里不是高消费的酿酒厂,不会把钱花在外表上。如果你要找小西拉的话,这里是你的不二之选。酿酒师留存的干红葡萄酒很赞,坦白讲,我们酒窖的“常规酿制的”干红葡萄酒有些年数了。非常复杂。其他的酒呢?好的,不像一般的酒厂,这是PETITES酒厂的分场。这里的员工很棒,他们会带你参观酒厂和葡萄园,让你拍照留念等。如果你需要,也可以让一个员工带你回去,在葡萄酒桶里装一些酒。我建议不要喝他们陈列出来供大家品尝的酒(除了常规酿制的干红葡萄酒),而是喝格林伍德酒、响尾蛇山酒和酿酒师留存的酒。有一个同伴第一次来弗吉尼亚旅行,在参观完几个酒厂后,她说道:“让我做这里的高级员工吧”,我们听了后哈哈大笑。员工们当然知道如何让顾客开心。你必须把就买下来放几年,我们几年前买的酒还在放着,现在只得买干红葡萄酒。这里每年会举行一次高尔夫锦标赛、酿酒聚会和烧烤。适合家庭旅游,这里非常友好,酒也很好喝。
You must stop by here!! We had a wonderful time!! Our host gave us a great tour of the fields, barrel/storage area, and was very knowledgable about the wines and much much more! The wines here are some of the best we have ever had!! The tasting was very extensive and so much fun!
那天天气很好,我们突然约了大卫,很幸运地,他直接就带我们去参观了。大卫是位很棒的酒厂主人,他不仅大方而且知识渊博,但不是傲慢地炫耀知识因为我们也不是研究酒的专家。我们参观了制酒过程,大卫向我们解释了怎样用不同的葡萄和方法做出最好的酒。后来我们忍不住品尝了温弗尼酒庄不同的酒,非常有趣。最终,我们决定买下几处“酒窖”(这个新的酒业术语是参观了很多次之后才记住的!!) 我们也买了一些香脂醋和浸油,味道都好极了。感谢大卫!你的幽默和渊博知识令我们这次参观很难忘!
The winery is in a very cool location (Calistoga is a really cute, quaint town) and the winery is on the smaller side. If you are looking for a larger winery or something with a more "corporate" feeling, look elsewhere. My wife and I are not big fans of "corporate" settings, reason being we selected this winery! We did a tour with Jeff and he was really awesome. He was extremely knowledgeable about their wines, as well as other wines as a whole (has been in the industry for over 30 years) and took us through the entire facility. He brought us out to the vines and showed us their process and pointed out all the things you do not necessarily think of when at a winery. He was the least pushy tour guide I have ever experienced and did not push us to join their wine club or order wines, but rather educate us and hopefully gain their future business. I would HIGHLY recommend their Port wine...it was without a doubt the best we have ever had, and will be ordering a case of it this week. Additionally, they have really nice olive oil's available that we tried and those were delicious as well. We thoroughly enjoyed everything about the winery and is a great experience for people who are looking for a low-key tour and relaxing environment.
文斯红酒之旅。相比几年前去那里现在的价格有点贵,我猜是通货膨胀的原因,但是他的酒庄是这里最棒的,很平静,不死板,真实,简陋,只注重一件事:就是做好酒。有时他会过来,跟你聊天,介绍他的狗,跟你一起品酒,我告诉你:这是世界上最好的酒!!!!!说到这里,他们家的人专心致志的酿酒,很棒,对我来说,这个山谷有很多家酒庄,但是他家的是最最最一流的。它位于Calistoga,因此到那后不是很显眼,但是一点也不难找。
November is post harvest time in Napa Valley area hence you will not find any grapes on the vine, its also the low season so expect less crowd in the vineyards. Vincent Arroyo was recommended by a friend so we booked an appointment. We were promptly ushered in and Jeff explained us about each wine and even allowed us to sip our tasting while strolling in the vineyard. All the while he kept telling us stories about the owner of the vineyard, Vincent Arroyo and story behind every wine bottle we tasted. We were having a great time and then entered the man himself, Vincent Arroyo. He is so warm and friendly and patiently took a picture with us and even invited us to the next event they will have at the vineyard in February. If i have sum up my experience in one word, I would say Fantastic
This place was great. Generous tasting and very laid back. Wines are excellent and prices are great. Nothing stuffy or snobby. And I got to pet the doggie. One of the best stops I've been on on many many Napa trips.
I was referred here by another fan of Petite Sirah. I was a bit leery because they only sell direct from vineyard. I was wrong. The wines are great, the tasting was more than generous and the tour was so fun. Our guide grabbed a few bottles and then walked us to the vineyard where we tasted what was growing nearby. I've been to 50+ wineries in five countries and this was among the best.
I have been to many winery but this one is amazing because of its personal service and attention to detail.Yes its in a barn room with no place to sit but that does not matter to me. We walked to this winery and called to make an apt they took us right away. Jeff was friendly he explained to detail on each wine we tasted. he took us around the grounds with wine in hand and explained how the grapes grow and the steps they take to make sure its prefect. He told us history about Vincent whom seems to be an amazing man. I loved the stories of Vincent Dogs and the names added to his wines. JJ's Blend was one of my favorite and I dislike most blends and loved this one. The Tempranillo was amazing never had one before. I honestly would have bought some wine but I only had a carrier on to take back to Chicago. I may just end up ordering and having it shipped because it was so wonderful. I would recommended this as being a must see is Calistoga.
I visited this winery with some friends who came here on their honeymoon. What a great place! A total hole in the wall tucked away on some back roads. The folks here led me to a renewed appreciation of merlot and deepened my love cabernet sauvignon! And their port-like wine is just fantastic! Vincent Arroyo is also a great place to have a picnic lunch and enjoy more of their wine. Their tour and tasting is quite laid back and the experience is very easy going, just how enjoying wine should be. Those same friends and I also split a case or two of wine from this winery each year.
