Mark was a wonderful guide From the minute we got on the clean, comfortable van he was very engaging and knowledgeable. He pointed out things Of interest and explained the history behind things from the moment we left the tour headquarters. The three wineries were beautiful and had a nice selection of wines. If you are only planning on buying a bottle or two I would recommend to hold out for Duchman. It was last on the trip but they were the best tasting and very reasonable They also had a nice selection of tasty flavored olive oils. Our sommelier was also great at winery. You can also view the fermentation and bottling room. If you can get Mark as your guide you are sure to enjoy šŸ·šŸ·šŸ·

Company outing to Salt Lick, Vista Brewing and Duchman Winery. Van arrived early and we left the office by 11AM. We brought beverages for the road and for Salt Lick. Our hosts Bobby and Chris were so much fun. Created a party atmosphere from the minute we loaded, which lasted the entire trip. They kept us on schedule, but didn't rush us. They made sure we were having a great time! Salt Lick was family style, and the food landed at the table when we landed. Perfect service and plenty of food! Vista has one of the best tasting rooms of any brewery I've seen. The brewmaster gave us a really cool overview of beer science and what they were currently brewing. Duchman is stunning. Lots of attention to detail, beautiful setting. We chose this tour since we had beer geeks and wine drinkers. We arrived back by 4:30. Overall, a big wow! Team outing or family event, makes no difference. This is the choice!
