Nice winery with good wines. Unfortunately, we had the impression that the service was a bit bored and unmotivated. We weren't given any explanations about the wines. It was still tasty, though :-)

Went to try the wine tasting, which is right next to the restaurant. Can sit outside under the trees, or inside. Very lovely place. Wines are ready to drink now, not much aging required. They do have quite a large selection of wines too choose from.

This place is the true definition of camping in luxury! The set up in the tents is amazing and has eveything you will need. The hot tub is a nice addition. The scenery is breathtaking right from when you enter into the Estate. The host was also very friendly.

The location is fantastic, with comfortable seating in the shady courtyard or inside. In addition to tastings, you can also enjoy a leisurely lunch here. Two well-maintained and signposted hiking trails start right at the winery.
