We very much enjoyed our lunch at the new Bistro with a view next to the upgraded Tasting Room. My shrimp and grits with andouille sausage was delicious. My wife loved her salmon dish. The newly released Cab Franc Reserve was outstanding!

Our waitress, Lizzy, was awesome. I personally wasn't a fan of the way the potatoes for breakfast was cooked and I am not a fan of thick cooked bacon. I know some people like it. The flight of mimosas was good. My husband loved the bloody Mary b4 the glass slipped out of his hand on the table

The Sunday Brunch food was delicious and the wine cannot be beat. There were three of us, and we each enjoyed a different flight. All twelve tastings of wine were fabulous and met each of our individual wine preferences.

One of the most enjoyable meals and environments I have had in quite a while. Little pricey, but I thought it was certainly worth it. Can't wait to return. I was there on Friday evening. I did have reservations. The filet is wonderful.
