Highly recommended - Our your guide Ian was super knowledgeable about wine and wine making. Learned a lot. The 3 wineries we visited were wonderful but enjoyed the last one where we actually sat down with the wine make/owner. Lunch was included and amazing. Loved the small group feel

A wine and scenic treat - This wasn’t just wine tasting, but also an education. We’re not strangers to wine tasting, but this was informative and personal. Visiting smaller, family owned wineries snuggled amidst lush countryside was an unexpected treat. Oh, the wine was excellent, and Iaon Pohlit owner/operator of Rooted Vines, was knowledgeable and thoughtful. It was a very pleasurable day.

Meeting Marco Luccesi at... - Meeting Marco Luccesi at his wine making warehouse was a highlight. We ordered a lot of his wine because it was all good, even the varieties we don’t normally drink.

Unprofessional and unethical - Please stay away. This company does not care about you or your safety. The only thing they care about is money.
We have a tour scheduled on Sat 9/30, on wed 9/27 we tested positive for Covid. We are all symptomatic and very ill, on the verge of hospitalization. Called on wed, spoke with Ian? About canceling our reservation due to medical reason and offered to provide medical documentation and he refused. When asked does he want us to show up ill and expose others to potentially life threatening illness, he said he doesn’t care and hung up. So make sure you don’t get ill or no emergencies happen otherwise you will lose all of your money.
No understanding or compassion from this unprofessional and unethical company. We would never intentionally endanger others just for the sake of money. Shame on you.
