I love your winery, but why does your Sauv Blanc taste like chicken broth when I buy it from the store??

Beautiful venue! Staff are amazing, and the wine I had was so good! Definitely will be coming back!

I'm giving 3 stars because I haven't been here...however, I emailed May 2023 about renting the smaller space for a rehearsal dinner Sept 2024. I was met with basically email us back 6 months prior to your event. I reached out yesterday asking if the space was available, even a few weeks prior to the actual date and apologized for being what I thought was early to asking for a rental space. I was met with "sorry we have a wedding that date!" Now, I do understand why you'd rent an entire space to a wedding vs 45 people, truly. I guess the irritating part is, I wasn't reached out to prior to booking the wedding to tell me the space has been let go or even give us an option of Paying more to rent the space or make it worth their time and money. Was pretty much forgotten about and poopooed away. Lack of communication and care for patrons, definitely. Seeing how it's not 6 months to the date even yet, I'm surprised they already have an event. Weddings must be able to apply for the space much sooner.

Great place!

Great atmosphere but disappointing service. Staff act too busy to acknowledge people when trying to get a beverage.

We spent the afternoon here to celebrate our anniversary. We had some apps, pizza, cocktails, and wine. The staff is very friendly and the drinks and food were delicious. Even though it was chilly, we walked around outside since the grounds are beautiful.

I stopped here to visit on a business trip while staying in Mankato as I saw an advertisement in the hotel magazine. Reviews seem. ed ok and checked it out. The price for tastings is great and you get to pick which wines you want. I ended up doing two rounds of tastings. Their Riesling and Chardonnay are extremely good. For the reds I really enjoyed the Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon which are both great. I ended up purchasing a bottle of all four.The service was good but could be better. The first young lady didn't explain the wine tasting and just asked if I wanted to open a tab before giving me any further information. They could use some improvement in customer service and wine guidance to enhance the experience.Overall the wine and atmosphere are great. If I lived here this would have been a great establishment for a wedding. I highly recommend if you are in the area to stop in and have a tasting... Or two.

This place is absolutely gorgeous and so much nicer and larger than we expected! The cocktails were made beautifully and the staff was super friendly and welcoming.

Visited on Sunday, 09/03/23. Still worth 5 stars! New executive chef has added some new items to the menu, and very much appreciated the additions! Four new "amuse-bouche" items listed as "snacks" were all playful takes on some common appetizers, like a Goonie, a take in a Crab Rangoon, but without the crab. All four were delicious. Also new was a BBQ Spring Roll Pizza, which was also delicious. Who knew kimchee and BBQ chicken would work on a pizza! They still have many of their standard items (charcuterie board, bruschetta, margarita pizza, etc.), but love they are doing some culinary exploration. Chef also stop by to ask how we like the new items, which was also a nice touch! Oh...and wine and cocktails continue to be top notch! Worth a visit when in the St. Peter/Mankato area.

Beautiful venue inside and out. Great staff. Food looked amazing. Winery and a distillery on site.

Mike Schon

We always enjoy the wines and food. And the staff has always been fantastic

Michael Rider

Came for a nice afternoon and were asked to leave because we had a dog— even though we were outside. Of course they let us buy our wine first and then told us to leave so our wine, our money, and our time went to waste.

Best winery in Minnesota. Beautiful grounds, very good wines, their spirits and cocktails are delicious and the staff is know and friendly
