This is the second time I’ve booked a wine tour with Wine Wrangler, and it didn’t disappoint! We went to all smaller wineries (which I love!) so we got a more personalized touch. At Ecluse, we met the owner and original winemaker and did a barrel tasting. Summerwood was gorgeous and we had a delicious lunch brought by Keith (our awesome tour guide!). Plus there was an adorable winery dog, which always makes the day better! At Volatus, the Som not only explained the wine, but the story behind all the wine names (the owner was a top gun pilot), so it added a fun personal touch. Asunción Ridge was our last stop, and our favorite wine of the day! So naturally, we ended up joining the club.
The whole day was fantastic! Keith called an hour ahead of time to give us a more specific time than the 30min window when you book. He made sure to let the soms know I was in the military at all the wineries so we were given a discount. He carried all the wine out to the van for us, and kept it very organized between our wine and the other two people who joined us. It was fun having a semi private group, and we weren’t pressed for time, or just dropped off and given a time to be out front like some other tours do. This is definitely the way to do wine tasting!
