The wine at Peju is stellar but the tasting experience can be a bit awkward depending on who you get as your "tour guide".

Once you enter their beautiful space they greet you with a little wait saying that they will provide you with a tasting appointment in a moment. We were walked back to the furthest corner of their building to be greeted by this SAG actor who was introducing himself to us and talking about sports for the first 7 mins. We wanted to try out the wine so we waited patiently hoping that he would start pouring. Maybe I'm just used to a more "what would you like to taste" experience, but I felt as if we were at a show. He then began to rock out to the music playing in the background and it was all Van-Halen and Grateful Dead which is fine, but again... awkward at a winery.

I'm not saying this is the only experience I've had at this winery but they've always been similar. Maybe it's just my luck. Anywho, the wine is good and they have plenty to offer. If it's not part of your tasting and they have a bottle open just ask and I'm sure they'll give you a taste. The Cab-franc... to die for! I just want a piece of meat and a glass of that wine...now!
