The tour guide was very kind and clearly knew a lot. She was very talkative and made an effort to keep the tour interactive, which I appreciated. The vineyard itself is small and cozy, and the wine and cheese they offered were generous. It did take a while to get there, and I felt a bit dizzy on the bus (especially on the way there), but I really enjoyed the experience overall. I just wish we could have stayed even longer at the vineyard — it was lovely.
