What travelers are saying

We didn’t sample food but the brick oven pizza area looked nice and there was plenty of indoor seating.

We enjoyed tasting several different wines - including the kids who really enjoyed the sparkling grape juice.

Stopped to do a wine tasting

Enjoyable evening

Placed our order, took the winery tour, started tasting and was told our orders were ready. Not so, in fact, there was much confusion as to what/who had ordered. That said, the brick oven pizza was great and the wine excellent. More attention needs to...More

Don't miss this on your way to Pella

We'd seen this winery and decided to stop on our way to Pella. We were glad we did. Beautiful rolling hills and vineyards surround the property. There is a large parking area and it's beautifully landscaped, with a sampling of the different varieties of grapes...More

Nice building

We stopped for a tasting. The building is very nice and is set up well. They have a lot of things going on that are nice. We like dry red wine and there's had a bit of a bite for us. Not a smooth finish....More

Good Experience!

We stopped on a whim on a Saturday afternoon in October. The entrance is enchanting with several different varieties of their grape vines hanging from arbors. Inside, we were given a short tour of the process by which they make and bottle their wines. We...More

A great Sunday afternoon activity!

One of my favorite local wineries! An easy drive from Des Moines which included a brief stopover in Pella just to wander. There was no charge for the tasting and their samples were generous. We found several that we both enjoyed and took glasses out...More

Venue & service not enticing.

Location and easy to access. Outdoor property is tidy and invites curiosity. Indoor rooms are awkward to navigate and no guide, human or otherwise. Restrooms outdated with a bad odor. Tasting counter was scarcely staffed. Product information was minimal with little enthusiasm. Standard wine tasting...More

Geat experience

Visited as part of a work function. Did the tasting & then participated in the vineyard tour. Great way to spend an afternoon & the wine was delicious. My preference was the Red, White & Blue. Red & sweet. Perfection.
