Winery and Bed & Breakfast closed (temporarily)!

The Department of Transportation has been working on State Hwy. 18 for some time.  Up until now it hasn’t caused too much interruption in our business.  However, we have been informed that we will be completely blocked in this Saturday and Sunday, October 29th and 30th.  We have no choice but to close the Farm House Shop and Bed & Breakfast for those two days.  Please help spread the word.  If you know of anyone that may be planning a trip to the winery this weekend, let them know we are closed.

Thank You!
