The friendly and knowledgeable staff, including Connor and Justin, enhance the experience by sharing their expertise and tailoring tastings to individual preferences.

The ambiance and decor create a great atmosphere for good company and people watching. The Society is owned by Foley, which has a large collection of wineries from Santa Ines Valley, Napa, Sonoma, and more, allowing for thoughtfully curated tasting flights.
