Phillip Review of Duck Pond Cellars

I LOVE this place! My Girlfriend and I decided to stop here on the way back from the coast and what an experience! We did a couple tasting flights with Connie and she was informative and fun to visit with. Fast forward.. We were leaving as they were closing and my car DIED! Did not want to start.. DEAD in the parking lot. Their new vintner Trevor came out a couple times to check on us and invited us back in while waiting for a tow truck, of course we graciously obliged. Let me tell you, Trevor knows his stuff! His knowledge and passion for wine making are equally impressive! We got to taste several barrels and different things that no one else yet (outside of the winery) have been privy to, which added something personal and so special to the entire experience. Connie and Trevor let us stick around until Connie was done with her closing duties, all the while maintaining a hospitable and welcoming demeanor. After that we were welcomed to lounge out on the patio (still waiting for that tow truck) where Connie came out and hung out with us for a little while with a couple pours. A couple times Trevor even came out with a few extra special pours for us to try as well.. Again, about Trevor, people keep your eyes peeled for some amazing wines that this guy is bringing to a competitive table. You'll be MORE than pleasantly surprised.
So did we join the wine club?? How could we not with such a personable crew and their passion for making "Home Run" wines! Thank you guys for making what could have been an otherwise miserable situation extremely fun and memorable.
