It's in the tasting room so it's festive but comfortable. The menu is printed and includes cheese with wines. Their web description comes across as a little stuffy (IMHO), maybe because it is a new concept for them; but I found it very comfortable and the best way to experience their wines.; ▶ Reply to This

It starts with a tour fo the private art collection of Donald Hess and then goes into the private library dining room or the VIP room where the host introduces you to 3 current release wines. The chef then brings out 3 appetizers that are created to show the wines off in their best light. The program is available Thursday, Friday and Saturday. There are two seatings, one at 10:00 am and one at 2:00 pm. Advance reservations recommended. Cost is $35.00 per person on Thursday, and $40.00 per person on Friday and Saturday.; ▶ Reply to This
