Small Wineries are the Best - All three wineries were fantastic. Great tour guide, each winery was unique and had its own story to tell. We got to see the machines that crushed the grapes and the barrels that the wine is stored in as well as the wine cellars where the barrels are stored to allow the aging process. At two of the wineries, the owners poured the wine and described growing the different varieties of grapes, the process of crushing and storing the wine, and the bottling process. It made the tour even more worth while. We bought some bottles of wine and felt as thought it was made by someone we personally knew.
