This year we wanted to do something special to celebrate the season so we decided to move tastings to our beloved farmhouse for the month of December. It has always meant so much to us when visitors have described the property as feeling like “home”. This led us to push the envelope to bring comfort (and joy) to all in our cozy space. Enjoy mulled wine and our full wine menu in this inviting space. You can enjoy the warm fire, the parlor with 10 stockings hung to represent the 10 original children in the home, or large farm table in our glittering dining space!  #farmhousechristmas #christmasnostalgia #vintagechristmas
