The Setting
The Crystal Cellar anchors the property, a glittering underground room where chandeliers hang above tasting tables. Above ground, The Grove offers open-air seating beneath mature trees, while the Main Salon opens onto vineyard views through floor-to-ceiling windows. The Red Room wraps guests in saturated burgundy walls, velvet furniture, and low lighting designed to echo the color of Cabernet in a decanter.

The Main Salon serves as the entry point at $50, pouring flights in a bright, art-filled space with views across organic vineyards. For $65, the Crystal Cellar option lets visitors build three custom flights surrounded by sparkling light fixtures. The Red Room Tasting ($95) moves into intimate velvet seating, where staff pour a pre-selected lineup focused on red wines. Journey of the Senses ($175) walks guests through the Biodynamic vineyard blocks, tank room, and garden before returning to taste.
