We felt like total VIPs here from start to finish..they had us set up in a small seating area and started us off with a sparkling wine, delicious. We then had a tasting of about 5 wines, followed by a tasting of dessert wines, including a chocolate wine that tasted like a tootsie roll. They gave us a cheese platter and crackers and for the grand finale, they took us on a small tour where they happened to be bottling a wine that day. This place is worth the visit and the wine was pretty great also.

We were lucky enough to have our wedding at this stunning location in September of 2014, including…read morea three night stay on the property. The grounds are gorgeous, well kept, and somewhat whimsical. The owners (Karen and Jack) have a great eye for blending their beautiful gardens with the stunning Alexander Valley. Everyone was stunned by the beauty of the location. The property functions brilliantly as a wedding location. We had 125 guests for a ceremony, formal seated dinner, dancing, and a photobooth. There is a large area that is well hidden from the rest of the property that is perfect for catering and event prep work. Note that you have to get clever with catering, because the house kitchen is not to be used for cooking for large crowds. We used a paella caterer, which worked brilliantly. One of the secrets the property holds is the beautiful lighting that appears after dark. There is even a chandelier in a tree! We wouldn't have imagined the property could actually look even more beautiful after dark. The home itself is absolutely gorgeous, and it was such a treat to be able to have our entire immediate family together in one spot for three days. We echo the other reviews regarding the owners. Although a brilliant event space, the property is also Karen and Jack's home, and they expect you to respect it as such. So long as you understand this, everything should go smoothly. There were a couple of bumps between the owners and our wedding planner, but everything worked out in the end. Be sure to ask Karen her ideas if you take a tour. She had some creative insights on how to use the property.

My only thing I would comment is we were considering renting a space for the pool, and it was a little too rich for us over $300 for 4 pool chairs was something to keep in mind if that is why you are visiting.

Her wonderful grandfather is still very much a presence in the horse training business, but Monica earns every dollar you pay here when starting new horses or tuning up your stale one. She rides your horse nearly every day and knows what she is doing. She is thorough and not trendy, and horses listen to her. She is good with owners too, not giving the impression that she thinks you are inexperienced or clumsy. You will love and respect her and so will your horse. As you can see, I wouldn't recommend any other trainer.
