Extremely hot one. We were there but she was very accommodating. Probably one of the top three wineries for tasting in the area. You do have to pay for the tastings but it's well worth it. Ambience is wonderful. Even though this is not a historical place. The little Stone house is cool. Even though most of the time you're outside.

The location is spectacular for one, high up on a mesa with incredible views. There are beautiful roses planted near the rows of vines.

The tents are beautifully appointed (coffee and wi-fi, fresh towels) and have air conditioners that cool things down nicely (I visited in mid-July) for a good night's sleep. The showers have everything you'll need and the sheets are crisp and fragrance free. The grounds and gardens are beautiful. Cindie, the proprietess, was my gracious hostess. She and her staff were so accommodating, warm, and professional. They treated me like a prince! Everything has been carefully thought of to make my stay in the glamping tent easy and relaxing. The wines are wonderful (go for the petite syrah) and the charcuterie board turned out to be dinner one night. I will be back. This serene little farm is a keeper! Thank you, Cindie and your staff!

Sarah is a kind soul, and the kind of person you can't wait to hire again. Already looking forward to our next tour! Thank you, Sarah!

She picked three places.  The first stop was so full of fun and the winemaker, Justin, took the time to explain about the Grand Valley and the winemaking process.  He was informative and kind and we had a great time.  I've done wine tours before, but no one spent time with us and hosted us as well as this.  Well worth the price.  Our second and third stops were nice as well, with options to choose between iced cocktails on a hot day or the selected wine flights.   Sarah herself was a delight and handled our brand of humor in stride.  At the end of the tour we were sad to say goodbye and were so glad that she was our host.
