My husband and I had a wonderful night. We had a wine tasting provided by Laurie Ann, who was really knowledgeable about the history of the winery and the wine varietals! It was really fun and we’re looking forward to going back to Karlo Estates again this summer :)

Only open for two hours a day, this studio had an amazing display of innovative glass creations. We were dazzled not only by the creativity in form but also the interesting techniques used to create texture and colour in the glass. The artist/owner was a great conversationalist and we learned so much from his fascinating explanations and stories. The conversation itself was well worth the trip, but you'll find you cannot leave without at least one of his unique creations.

Great time @ Traynor Winery. It is a very small family operation. Trays of grapes were drying in the tasting room. The young server was SO knowledgeable and just a delight. It was late in the season and he was doing a couple of jobs at once. We were the only ones there and he gave us special attention. Prices were prominently displayed and we were able to share a tasting - 3 wines for only $5. The pours were very generous! He asked us what we liked and recommended 3 wines then served from the light white through the heavier reds just the way it should be done. He also gave a running commentary. I was totally impressed with our experience at Traynor.

A very pleasant winery visit with my daughter and sister while driving in the County. Beautiful open landscape with rows of vineyards, flowers, trees, and small pond. Wine tasting was fun and loved their 2017 Gamay and the pizza was just awesome! We met the owner, Piero and his wife Sara who were very friendly and hospitable. We highly recommend Casa-Dea Winery! Salut!
