Lethbridge @ Hat Rock Vineyard reviews
7Lethbridge @ Hat Rock was convenient to our lunch location so we booked a tasting for 2.15 pm. The cellar door is not large but very nicely set out and easy to hold a tasting. We were greeted by Allegra, who is a daughter of the owners. She was able to share her intimate knowledge of the wines as well as the family history and the history of the vineyards and the approach to winemaking. This was all very interesting and complemented some very interesting wines. I particularly enjoyed the range of Pinot Noir, including the Between Five Bells Pinot Noir which included a blend of 3 Pinot varieties. This was a very enjoyable cellar door experience. We departed with 6 bottles, against which the tasting charge was offset.
Amazing wines and fab tunes- shout out to the lovely Sunday sommelier who played Tay Tay's Evermore
Absolute Disappointment.
The website is misleading we booked for a wine tasting, at no point does it say that you have to pay $15 for the tasting as long as each person buys a bottle for themselves! The young lady that was at the cellar door told us upon arrival that there was a big group reservation and she had no space for us.we had booked. So immediately we felt uncomfortable and unwelcome.
Did you not have the space? Where were we going to sit and have a cheeseboard with our tasting? Wait “about an hour or so” for the arrogant wine group that arrived after us like she said? I don’t think so.
To top it all off my husband purchased a bottle of wine and was told he had to pay an extra $15 for my wine tasting when we are married! What a way to rip us off. BE CAREFUL CONSUMERS! I would stay clear from this cellar door because you will end up paying an arm and a leg just for one average bottle!
Great wine tasting place. Very knowledge and interactive, much more than just a flight of wine with a handout.
Tried 3 times in 3 days to visit this winery, was closed every time - really disappointed as we wanted to buy lots of wine! Perhaps opening hours are out of date but I would call in advance
Great wines and great hospitality. Thanks Indra and Dave for your great knowledge, experience and service. Oh and the wines were fantastic too!
