My wife and I stayed here for our 5 year anniversa...

My wife and I stayed here for our 5 year anniversary. We had an amazing experience at Chateau Chantal. During our stay we tried the Wine Education dinner and had a blast. Some people might be turned off by the group meal setting but we found it made the experience more enjoyable talking with other couples between the courses. There was a couple there who had just gotten married so there was a large portion of the dinner group taken up by their wedding party which was fun to be a part of. The food was incredible and the wine pairings were perfect. We felt that the moderator and chef did an excellent job describing the meals and how the wine played with the course. The tour beforehand was enjoyable too, getting to learn the different steps in the making process. Overall I know more about wine now than I ever thought I would.

One of the nicest parts of staying at the Chateau Chantal was that you have the opportunity to have your tasting after everything has closed to the general public. They leave out the bottles with spouts on them so you can get in your wine tasting on your own (as part of staying overnight you get 6 samples and 1 glass per day). Since we had arrived later in the day and had to get ready for the wine education dinner we didn't have time to have our visit to the tasting room so we went after the dinner. It was an awesome experience just lounging around the tasting room and shop with the only people around being others that were staying the night.

The rooms were very large for a bed and breakfast with very reasonably priced items in the room to go with any wines you wanted. The breakfast the next day was great. I had expected something simple like pastries, fruit, and coffee and maybe a choice of some eggs but what was a pleasant surprise. There was crisp bacon, baked eggs and cheese, fruit, and homemade peach muffins that I couldn't stop eating.

The views from Chateau Chantal are amazing and I would recommend staying there in the fall if you can!

We'll definitely be going back.
