I cannot overemphasize how excellent the wine dinner experience was for me and my family. We were 5 seated at our table. There were about 6 tables of similar size. The 5 course meal was outstanding. The wine pairings were memorable. It was especially exciting to have the winemaker present to explain the wines. I highly recommend others to take advantage of any similar arrangements. My family has dined at this restaurant multiple times, without benefit of the wine dinner. It has never disappointed us. We always prefer to dine on the enclosed terrace. The food is always excellent.
