This tasting room shares space with Kaleido Wines. Our wine guide was great but the tasting had a odd approach you had to taste wines with chocolate. I have had a chocolate that went well with a savory wine, with one exception for Syrah and dark chocolate from other wineries. Chocolate is normally reserved for the port-type dessert wines. The gourmet chocolates were infused with either basil, cayenne pepper, salt and where very delicious. However the chocolates modified and masked the taste of the wines and didn't pair with the wine. I feel like I missed out on some of the flavors of the wine. I could only taste extreme tart sour berries. Wines were priced between $25-$30 per bottle. If I go back here I will try a tasting without the infused chocolates if aloud.
