When you finish the short tour of the Clermont winery, everyone convenes in the showroom at a large horseshoe shaped bar. We had about 15 people in our group and there was plenty of room. The woman who gave our group the factory tour stands behind the bar and continues with the wine tasting. On the bar there is a brochure, pen and wine glass and while talking she comes around the bar pouring wine in everyone's glass. You can make notes on the brochure about the dozen or so wines you'll taste and she'll speak about their concerts, the retail store, the prices and the various discounts and so on. It's very entertaining and reminded me of the movie 'Sideways' for a moment, but we had no Miles or Jack in our group.
