Customer Testimonial – 10.22.11

Jason,

I just wanted to follow up on our weekend and let you know what a FABULOUS time we all had! The wineries on the tour were spectacular – beautiful tasting rooms to enjoy the wide variety of offerings.  Doce Robles even took us on an impromptu hay ride with our tastings (and refills) in tow.  The events of the Harvest Festival did not disappoint – we especially loved the live music.  Most of all, your crew was phenomenal (perhaps deserving of a little raise…..?).  They were witty, helpful, knowledgeable, prompt, and patient (with a large group of women like ours, I know we must have tested this a bit…) – and I am saying all of this after the lovely effects of the wine have worn off…..  We almost needed to book you to haul back all of our purchases!

Thank you so much for everything – from your help with the pre-trip planning to the event itself.  We are already planning next year’s trip and Wine Line will be the first reservation we make!

Thanks again,
Jody M. (and the crew of teachers and administrators from XXXX Middle School)

Customer Testimonial from 10/8/11

Greetings Wine Linos!

We received his glowing review from a recent customer.  What kind words!

Hello,

I’ve experience wine tasting before from traditional wine tour companies but nothing compares to what The Wine Line offered!

While other companies heard customers like cattle to maintain their strict schedule with their chosen wineries, The Wine Line gave me and my girlfriend the freedom and intimate interactions with the wineries we visited.

We were visiting the area for my girlfriend’s birthday and our guide Chris gave us great recommendations on the many wineries around the area. We never once felt rushed or like we were battling other people for elbow room during our wine tastings, plus, all of the wineries recognize if you’re apart of The Wine Line  😉

Great experience, great price, highly recommended!!!

Thanks again,

Chris H.
