I stopped here after seeing their signs on my last few drives through MI. I am glad I stopped. The service was very friendly, and they helped recommend a wine as a gift based on what I described. I enjoyed the Prediletto Blush very much, and got a bottle for myself. The tastings were of ample size, and I enjoyed that they have animal crackers as the palate cleansers. I would stop here again.
Nice wine selection. Great views from porch.
I stop here every time I'm driving past. My dad loves their cherry wine!
Tony is great. Friendly place. Good wine.
This was our second time to Contessa. Last visit great the two women who were doing the serving were great and attentive, discussing the wines and engaging us in conversation. Second visit was May 20. The man serving us was complaining to us about it costing too much money to have more people working, had no recommendations just slapped the information on the counter in front of us and turned away. When we made our choices he served VERY SKIMPY tastings begrudgingly. I am sorry to say the service was not good, will think twice before going back. Giving 2 stars because what little tastes of wine we got was good.
Wow, Owner is So Awesome. Every single Wine is Amazing. Staff second to none. Amazing Experience.. Still Wowed after going Regularly for 14 years
The wines here are very well done. They were very good from the white to the reds and the cherry wine is the best I've tasted anywhere. Tony is very great at what he does. Very well done. Thanks will be back for sure. Try these wines and the view is outstanding from the tasting room.
Wine was about par for the area. Did not try anything sweet so I can not comment on that. Decor was a little dated but quaint, deck has a great view. Negatives of the visit was the man doing our tasting was very flustered by the crowd. He was slow in getting from customer to customer with non wine related small talk. Also stopped to overexplain to multiple groups of people waiting that they aren't used to crowds and they can't accommodate them for a few more minutes and on and on. The crowd was maybe 30 people and if he had focused on pouring and talking wine with the customers he had he could have turned over the tasting groups twice as fast and still given a good experience. Wasn't bad just out of his element. Then when we were told we couldn't buy a bottle to sit out on the patio and enjoy with the 4 of us, and that they only sold by the glass (to maximize profits no doubt) we decided we had seen enough. Probably a good experience during a slower time but with all of the other options we probably won't be back.
Very good wines!! Beautiful location
Wonderful place with an awesome view. Highly recommended!
