What People Say

Reviewers on TripAdvisor and OpenTable consistently highlight the stunning vineyard views, friendly and attentive staff, and the delicious wine pairings. Many mention the patio as a must for its peaceful ambiance and photo-worthy sunsets. Guests also appreciate the fresh, well-executed menu that complements the estate wines beautifully without being overly fussy.

Areas for Improvement

Some diners note that the bistro can get quite warm on hot afternoons, especially on the patio, so it's best to dress accordingly or book earlier in the day. Also, since it's a bit off the main town center, plan ahead for transportation if you're heading to a show afterward.
