Actually, it is just around the corner from TV. 466 to 475, takes about 10 - 12 mins to get there. Nice young people. We went with a group. They had a tour, music, dancing, wine tasting and you could buy by the glass. We tried six wines and bought two. I am not a wine aficionado, but I did like their sweeter wines. Not necessarily something I would do on our own, but with a small crowd it was fun.

Someone who visited lately mentioned very happy goats?

Yes the goats get to eat the partially fermented pulp. The wine is very nice, we especially like the sangria. Going on a Sunday afternoon is a nice monthly activity for us.

I went with a group of 20 but you don't need a group to go. Nice people there and it's interesting. You get to taste 6 different wines for free and if you want to taste their reserve bottle it costs $2 for a taste. Most in our group bought a bottle or 2 to take home. Bottles are $15, except for the reserve which I think was $48. The leftover pulp from the winery is put into the compost so there are happy goats and lots of babies on the farm.

For those who like blueberries it's great, but at $15 I can by a bottle of sterling from napa
