We had a family e-bike wine tour and wow what an experience. The staff were very friendly. A highly recommended to-do on your bucket list.

We tried the cheesecake and wine pairing – absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. It’s also an amazing spot for families — they offer a fun kids’ pairing and there’s a huge jungle gym and play area, so little ones can have a blast while adults relax with a glass of wine.
