Suzanne was an amazing host/server. We ended up leaving with two amazing wines.
Wine pick up day for members. Always an enjoyable experience. Great wine, great pairings. Scott the chef always makes great food to go with the wine. Today was no exception!
Held a surprise birthday party on a Saturday night at the winery. Was such a huge hit and an overall great event. The quality of the wines, the patio and tasting room aesthetics, and quality of the service were all just amazing. Special thanks to Ravii, Gina and Suzanne for the quality of service and help in making for a truly special evening!!
Loved the wine here. Staff service at its best. Owner Mr Ravi stopped by and we had a great conversation on the wine making process. Highly recommended to visit
They’re kind of rude here. Wouldn’t recommend. ??
Wonderful boutique winery! We had the best experience here. Tastings are $20 for 5 tastings, which is waved if you buy a bottle. Some of the other reviewers state that the tastings were tiny - I disagree. The pours were normal for a tasting. And, you could always revisit any taste just by asking. Plus, I really loved the service here - our server figured out each of our individual pallets and tailored our tastings based on our preferences. We learned a ton about the wine and what makes the area so special. We even tried a few wines that were not on our tasting menu.My friend and I visited on a Sunday afternoon. The place was busy but not crowded. We sat outside under the heat lamps. While they don’t have a restaurant, they have a small à la cart section to make your own picnic (crackers, cheese, chocolate, etc…).Highly recommend their wines too - especially their reds.
In summary, the pouring amount is extremely little, probably a 2 oz per glass, uses the same glass for 5 pours (even switching from white to red), and the horrible quality of service. If you don't care about the quality of service, Dante Robere would be worthy of your time with your own glasses.First, our server gave us a corner table with a lot of sunlight on the day with 93 degrees heat and told us NOT to tilt the patio umbrella when we tried to tilt it to avoid sunburn. Thankfully, Dan came over and tilted the umbrella himself later and told us to freely adjust it on our own. Because of the heat, we had an empty water jar from the first pour of wine and were never offered more water till we asked before we left.I also emailed the winery ahead regarding any small bites available and received a response: "We do have cheese, crackers, salami, jam, chocolate, etc to sell to make your own snack" from Dan. Yet, when I asked where I can purchase these from the server as small bites were not on the menu, she said "you need to bring your own. Is this your first time?"Lastly, when my friend was going to the restroom, she poured his glass and told me to explain the glass to him when he comes back.Quite frankly, she was extremely nice to other tables with older, Caucasian groups of people - smiling, checking on the taste of wine, refilling water, and consistently asking if they are ready for the next round of pours.Aside from the server, the atmosphere is cozy, the owner/manager Dan is nice and responsive, and the wine, especially Syrah, tastes great. BUT, it was the worst vineyard experience and service in my life. It is your choice to choose Dante Robere or not but I would personally never ever go back again.
The wine was okay, with only one standout in their entire selection. Would be 4 stars, except for the rude service. An older server with very dry shoulder length straightened brown hair, kept interrupting us to pour wine as if she was trying to rush us out of the door. She was curt, commanding, and disrespectful to me and others at tables in the area. I would understand if she was stressed out, as a former server I can empathize, but her tone changed depending on the table she was serving which I found discriminatory. There are so many other local places we could have spent our Saturday at; such a shame we spent our money here.
Excellent
Loved the tasting experience here at the bar. The owner was great. Definitely coming back

Great wine selections!
SUPERB WINES!!@ Very Great Wine Club@! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!@!!
We had a delightful afternoon sampling amazing wine ! Just received our shipment and look forward to more!
A nice variety of light and more bodied wines, so we could get something for everyone. Carole was nice and chatty, but not pushy. Informative about the tasting menu. Nice furnaces to warm us up. Not too crowded towards the end of the day. Wish the staff was wearing masks though.
