Just recently I moved back to Boise and did a little wine tasting tour on a Sunday afternoon. Even though I had not been impressed with Ste Chapelle wines in the past I decided to stop by anyways to find out what had changed since my last visit a few years back. When I entered the tasting room I noticed it had been completely renovated, nice! And now has a nice, slick zodiac tasting bar. Even better than the tasting room itself were the wines I tasted, mostly their premium whites and reds. The quality level of these wines were nothing what I had been used to from the past. Tremendous improvement. Great wines. I learned that there is a new wine maker. It sure shows! Keep up the good work. Also the wine samples were better than in other winery I went to that day. At the other wineries they spit in your glass twice and call it a sample... lol. At Ste Chapelle you actually can see your wine sample with the naked eye. Also, before I forget, they added a nice deck outside, which will be great in the summer. A large awning and misters would be great to add in the near future as the deck will transform into a barbecue in the summer. Or, install a trellis and let wine do the shade on the long run. Sunday events with music are overpriced. in the old days they were for free. Either make entry free and leave the wine overpriced or leave the entry charge and reduce the price of wine. Looks like greed is is commonplace now everywhere.

We hosted our wedding there in May 2015. The venue was beautiful and we were very please however the staff was a little difficult to work with. The required that beer be payed for in cash but we lived 5 hours away and had to remind them 3 or 4 times that we agreed to me paying them with a cashiers check and they would pay the cash. Also they remodeled the area between when I signed the contract and the wedding so the original gazebo we planned to use was gone and a deck was in its place which we would have to pay extra to rent. They didnt notify us of this change so we only found out because we made a trip to plan out our ceremony a few months before hand. Because of this change, where we held the ceremony was a pretty steep slope which was a bit annoying. They also offered us the bridal sweet at no extra charge, which was nice, but when we arrived, it was being remodeled so we couldnt use it. During the wedding prep we discovered that providing water was not in the contract so we were going to have to buy bottled water for our guests. Fortunately a relative talked sense into them and we filled a beverage dispenser with water from the tap. Overall we were satisfied but the staff needs to be more accommodating rather than adding stress about nit-picky things in an already stressful time.

Be advised that their "case club" membership is 30% more expensive than purchasing the same product at the grocery store (they mislead, and carefully conceal the fact that they are comparing 750 ml bottles to 1.5 ltrs, even when asked); it seems their only concern is getting a person signed up for a screwing today; a credit card on file with your new membership; and a commitment to another screwing in six months. Anyways, same crooked tactics and plain old deception that most of us are used to these days, with absolute disregard for the inconvenience perpetrated upon the prospective customers who (us anyways) certainly will not be back for more. To me, this sort of devious, manipulative conduct is extremely offensive. A lack of integrity should not be imposed on others as a game of "catch me if you can."

My sister and I visited the winery yesterday. We had a Groupon for two flights of wine and an appetizer. You get to choose between two different wine flights and a variety of appetizers. We chose the Pecan Crusted Brie that is served with sliced apples and crackers. The food and wine were delicious, the atmosphere was inviting, scenery beautiful, and the staff was very friendly. We even got to keep our wine glasses! Such an awesome place. It feels like you are in Tuscany rather than just outside of Boise. The only suggestion I have is to stay open later into the evening so the patio can be fully enjoyed in cooler temps.

Mothers Day 2016 Was very unorganized . Long lines for restrooms, Long lines for beverages. Ste Chapelle raised prices on beverages and entry to the event 25% for bad service. The Fabulous Chancellers were great. We are planning to go on Fathers day. Hope they get better for this event, because this has been a fun time for all families. Thanks Joe Landry

This winery was a favorite of ours about 2 years ago. Good wine, gorgeous location, awesome atmosphere. Now? We got ignored by an extremely unprofessional staff, we were given wine that wasnt even thiers and was awful, and took 45 minutes to taste 5 wines when it wasnt even busy! Very saddened to see this happen to what used to be one of my faves.

A couple weeks ago I went with a party to the winery. Our reservation was misplaced and there was no place for us to be on the patio but Sue was extremely helpful, she totally saved/improved the experience! She found a place for us and was completely responsible for our opportunity to have a great time! Thank you Sue

If you like your wine with a lot of sugar added after the fermentation process then go here. I worked for them for 4 years and they add thousands of pounds of sugar to it and hide the sugar from the public. So if your a diabetic I would not recommend this wine, or Kool-Aid.

Wine is okay, but I went to one of their concert series and the meat and cheese plate was essentially Kraft deli sliced cheese and meats on a plate. AT A WINERY. You dont need a chef to make a decent meat and cheese play ESPECIALLY to go with wine.

Very good wine but when doing the tasting I was asked if I had already done my last wine by one of the staff that was helping another group. Very rude. Wonderful wine and great atmosphere otherwise.

Great atmosphere. Good staff. Went to Mothers Day concert. Too crowded, long lines and no Porta potties made for a disappointing experience. The venue itself is very pleasant though.

Very beautiful, been out there a few times. Wine is superb and the atmosphere is exceptional. Its just to bad they dont offer more food! Or that there isnt a restaurant on site!

I went in yesterday and I totally forgot about bringing her wine out no napkins, and when asked to bring some to our table the guy that was there gave us a bad attitude

Tasty wine. Pretty spendy though so I highly recommend the Groupon. Would be nice to receive more education on each wine as Ive experienced elsewhere.
