Bad wine

I cannot speak to all of their wine, but the Pinot Noir is truly awful. Sour sludge with a funky aftertaste. First time I’ve ever poured a bottle of Pinot down the sink.

I visited the Bremerton Farmer's Market last week for the sole purpose of trying these wines. I have severe reactions to sulfites and was very excited to finally try a sulfite-free option. I spoke with the vendor and shared that I only drink SWEET wines ~ Moscato d'Asti varieties. I made sure she understood that I don't like any white wine or red wine or champagne, only a sweet d'Asti. She suggested one of their regular rieslings and an in-season peach riesling, stating the peach should be an even sweeter option. Well, we opened the peach tonight and I almost spit it out. Beyond disgusting. Zero sweetness. It tasted like cleaner smells, just gross. I spent over $60 for 2 bottles of wine that neither myself, nor my hubby, can stomach. A credible seller would have shared that they just don't make a sulfite-free variety that would be anywhere close to a Moscato d'Asti. Being dishonest about your product just to make a profit is beyond reprehensible!!!

Got a few bottles and it is my favorite wine. This isn’t some Safeway/costco wine, it’s all natural and was such a great experience. I guess the other reviews are more used to box wine and dont understand what this place is about.

I am highly confused at these reviews? I got two bottles of wine from a farmers market and not to be dramatic but it was life changing. I absolutely love the European style wine they create and do not know if I can ever go back. The flavor was spectacular and overall the wine tasted lighter than what I usually drink. I bought the apricot and Riesling. I think the low star reviews are a bit silly because this wine is made to taste different and it does!

My wife and I were at the Maple Valley farmers market on Saturday. My wife is allergic to sulfites and we saw that their wine is Organic. We have never tried their wine before but my wife was excited to give it a try. We ended up buying three bottles: the Riesling Amber infused with Peaches; Organic Strawberries infused in our Grass Widow Rose’; and the Organic Cherries infused Pinot Noir Rose’.

We opened the Riesling Amber first and noted that it did not really smell like much and we tasted it and we both had the same reaction of eww, it did not quite taste of vinegar, but it was close. It also had a fizz to it that I have never had in a Riesling before. It absolutely did not taste like a wine and certainly was not worth the $35 that we paid for it! We thought about how old the wine could be to taste like this.

We then had to open the Strawberry infused Grass Widow Rose’ to see if the Peach Riesling was just a bad bottle. It also did not have a strong aroma of a wine. We tasted it and had the same reaction of this is not a good wine. Had the same taste of almost vinegar and the same fizz!
We were extremely disappointed that we paid so much for these wines! They were not worth $5!

We then opened the Cherry infused Pinot Noir Rose’ having no expectation of being any good. It had a hint of a Pinot Noir but it was not strong. We tasted it and it tasted like a Pinot Noir, but it still was not worth the price paid. It was drinkable and my wife will drink it, but I was very disappointed that a wine that my wife can drink was not drinkable! A big waste of $105!
Instead of dumping the first two wines down the drain, we poured them on the weeds in our driveway as an experiment.

I used to drink a lot of wine before I met my wife, but because she cannot drink wine except ones that are Organic. My favorite wines are Sweet Rieslings, Pinot noirs and Merlots, so I know what wines should taste like. I am not trying to be mean or rude, I am only trying to give an honest review of these wines and let others make up their own minds.

Just a thing about what I do for a living: I have been an inventory control specialist for Costco for the last 6 months. I order beer wine and spirits for the state of Washington. I am going to have a conversation with the Buyer about her overall opinion of this winery, if she has tried it or not. To me, it is not worthy of ever becoming a wine sold in Costco.

My opinion is that the winery should not try to infuse fruit in wines unless they get better at making the different verities of grapes. Also, lower your prices to a reasonable price point of $15 to $18.

This wine smells amazing but tastes like almost straight vinegar. They either need to learn how to properly bottle and store it, or they need to not use cheap bottling products so that it can store for longer periods of time.

If you like drinking vinegar instead of red wine with your steak than this is the wine for you...

Really disappointed, I got a bottle of the blackberry wine and my husband and I were so excited to try it... however we have never tasted a more acidic wine in our life. It was almost like drinking straight vinegar. We couldn't even get one sip down. Bottle went immediately down the sink...

Great, tasty, healthy wine with no sulfites or chemicals. Lovely setting and wine tasting space that smelled amazing. Love this small family biz!

Absolutely terrible experience as campers. We booked through air bnb to stay one night. We arrived and nobody was there to greet us and the number they give to call is irrelevant because there is no service. The ad doesn't mention any vehicle restrictions and our sedan was damaged on their rocky and uneven roads up to the campsite. We get up there to 0 campers, rusty furniture, and toys scattered in an empty field. Our dog couldn't even get out of the car because the field was full of burrs. We knew it would be rustic but it was a huge waste of money. We didn't even stay because we didn't want to travel back up the hill after setting up camp and leaving to stock up on supplies.

What a really simple place.
We stopped there almost by accident and asked for a tasting. The owner/winemaker was absent, but the person present (who didn't know anything about the wine) told us we could taste whatever bottle was open.
So... it's REALLY different from what you usually drink, because it's purely natural and as a consequence they don't use any sulfite, but then the wine ages WAY faster.
My wife and me are French and love old wines, so we liked it and bought bottles, but these wines 1/ won't suit everybody (if not most) and 2/ have to be drunk really quickly and be stored properly else you'll end up with vinegar.

Was so excited to try their fruit wine that I spent almost $100 on three bottles at the Vancouver farmers market. When we opened the first one it was obviously off. Smelled and tasted like very strong vinegar. We thought oh well, let's just open another bottle but that one was spoiled too! It turns out that all three bottles were spoiled and undrinkable. We dumped out the bottles to recycle the glass and contacted the company the following morning. The company made it sound like we were trying to get free wine from them which is so insulting. I told them they should open a bottle themselves to check it so that one, they know I am not lying about this, and two so they stop selling spoiled wine to people! After reading online reviews, they have done this to other people in the past. So incredibly disappointing to be treated like this from a business.

Worst wine I've ever had.

So I bought a bottle of their blueberry wine from the ester short park Vancouver farmers market, and it turned out to be completely mothered and turned into vinegar, so I contacted the company and they replaced the bottle of wine, so I got the monarch rose the following Saturday and opened it 3 days later and it was amazing......... 4 days later the wine was total vinegar...... It was kept refrigerated and horizontal the entire time... Contacted the company about this and got a very rude response!!!!! If you like short lived wine and can drink it all in one sitting this is your go to company, if you enjoy savoring your wine do not buy from this company.

Loved the wine. Especially the blueberry. Will definitely be back.
