“Me and my boyfriend visited Tarpon springs winery yesterday, we got our voucher on groupon about a week in advance. The owner was very nice when calling us back to schedule our reservation, asked how many would be in our party. I told her that there was only two of us attending, not a large group and she assured me that no matter how many people we were, every visitor will have a party while visiting their winery. That we did. We went in for the 1:00 group, this spot only takes reservations at 1 or 5 on weekends so don’t try to book an appointment during the week out of your own entitlement. I would like to say that everyone who has written a bad review for this place are snobs who have turned their noses up at the fact that this unique experience is unlike anything you will find at a common winery. They have no respect or appreciation for family owned businesses that are strictly doing what they do out of passion instead of people pleasing. The host welcomed us into his home and beautiful garden for an experience unlike no other. We learned more at this winery than you probably will at most, and the authenticity of the man who was our host was unforgettable. The 80 year old husband and wife who started this business are real people with real experience, and if you have chance to visit this winery then by all means, do it. The facility was not coorperate by any means, but that only adds to the hospitality of the winerys approach. We got to take home our glasses and a free bottle of wine, and if you are expecting crystal glasses then you can go to a neiman marcus and buy yourself a set of waterfords rather than expecting a handout. Thank you so much to Joe for the great time, exciting sense of humor, and well made wine. P.S. their art collection is awesome too.“
