Good value for the tasting. However, staff should realize they’re in the hospitality industry. If their home life or personality doesn’t allow for positive interaction with customers (as stated in response to other reviews) it would be prudent to consider hiring someone who would be better suited to this to assist your customers. Additionally, several of their wines are available at the local Family Fare store for significantly cheaper where the staff was quite pleasant!

Waitstaff was rude. We specifically asked for our wine to remain open, they closed it, and then charged us a $10 fee for it. Rude. Overpriced. Inflexible. Would never come back again.

Horrible service. Group of 5, ask to leave, because we "appeared" to have too much to drink before we arrived. We had not drank before arriving. It was a half hour before closing. Would not recommend ever stopping here. Hubby ask for a glass and was refused service. This was not the first time we visited this location. Will not ever go back to this winery.

Have been to love wines several times and always enjoyed the setting and host. Although I took friends there today and was never treated so rudely. Was told first to hurry up because they had something to do in the back. Was refused service saying we were drunk because I have a limp. We had a DD and was far from drunk but we will never return there or there other sight in Portland MI. Good luck but as a business owner you do not treat your customers this way!

Have been to many wineries in Michigan. The winery is about the experience and I feel that the owner is very unfriendly. Wouldn’t even say hi to us when she walked in the tasting room. She had what seemed like a new employee and she kept correcting her in front of us. I felt really bad for the her. It made the atmosphere very uncomfortable. I tried to ask about a certain wine and when the employee asked the owner about it, she wouldn’t even acknowledge that we were standing right there and only would tell the employee the answers. The pours were ridiculously small, and I’m saying this as someone that’s been to dozens of wine tastings. I think the employee was just afraid to pour in front of her because she kept telling her what she was doing wrong. Some of the wines are good but most of them all taste the same. Overall very awkward experience and we will not be returning.

Great little spot with some nice tasting wines. I wish I could remember who helped us. She had a unique pretty name that start with an A. She was super nice and very friendly. We enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back.

We came in since we were on vacation and I asked if they served glasses and I got told “no this is a winery not a bar” and then kind of got talked to like my boyfriend and I had never had wine. My boyfriend and I have traveled throughout the state probably to 20+ wineries and I will say that most sell glasses of wine. If you don’t sell glasses then a simply” no sorry we don’t” would have been fine but the owner seems kind of condescending. She tried to make it up by offering a glass after but I was put off by it and declined. *** I wanted to reply back after the response was left and note that we really did appreciate learning about the wines and that is always appreciated and we did enjoy the wine.

If you are within an hour or two and don't give this place a visit. You're 100% missing out. Best prices I ever experienced, best tastes and the owners are about as personable as your reflection in the mirror. I live in Holland and I plan on visiting at least once a month. ❤️
