We arrived excited to be welcomed with a sparkling glass of wine as it had said on Event description. We did not receive the wine until dinner. Okay so much for be welcomed with. When we did arrive we hung our coats in the warm entry, how nice. Although when were leaving for the evening, we put on our coats and they were ice cold. Anyway, the food selection was very appetizing. There was a beautiful display of clams and oysters on half shell, shrimp cocktail as well as assorted gourmet cheeses and crudite, Lovely and Tasty. There was a cash bar, which sold their own wines made on site. Most people at our table were drinking the same type of wine. We asked to purchase a bottle, they said we could not. Why? So we bought several glasses at $7 each. We were all surprised by the price, being they made the wine there. Okay, moving on. The atmosphere was okay, the lights were bright. They did attempt to dim the lights, but could not get it right. At first there was music playng, then nothing, at least none that I could hear. On to the food, Salad wonderful, Scallops with Risotto, Very Very good. I did not finish though to save room for the main course, big mistake. Filet Mignon stuffed with Lobster and Bousin cheese. The filet arrived very well done and very tough. There was no stuffing in most and whoever did have a filet with stuffing was very minute. We did mention this and the owner came out and offered another filet, but by that time it was too late. We did reveive a round of drinks on the house. When we were leaving I overheard several people stating how horrible the filet was. It is really too bad, because the whole evening was ruined by that destroyed filet. The owner did say that the needed to cut filet to add stuffing and cook longer to melt cheese. I dont think so. They really need a new chef and a course or a good staff on how to host an event. Partial satisfaction does not cut it, Oh one more thing, The waitress we had was very curt, no warmth there. Too many things to mention on her.

I attended a wedding in November 2015. The venue is beautiful however the staff is very unpleasant! from the servers to the event coordinator, no one smiled and all acted "annoyed" when addressing the guests! For example, our table was short 1 chair and place setting for the amount of people that were assigned to our table. We all had little place cards telling us that we were sitting at table #5, but there were 10 set ups for 11 people. When we let our server know she pointed to unoccupied chairs at the table saying " well who is sitting there?" We told her who was sitting at every seat and she said to the guest without a seat " well I hope you know what you are eating because I only have 10 entrees listed for this table! and stormed off! She was very unhappy when she returned with an additional chair and setting. the poor guy was very embarrassed! The set up was also awkward since we had to observe the wedding from out seats and there was a column in front of us, so we couldnt see the Bride unless we leaned towards the person sitting next to us. The bar also "closed" at 1015pm without notice. we had to search for someone to even get water, to which I was told "there is coffee set up over there!" I didnt want coffee at 1030pm and the server was annoyed when she returned with a pitcher of water for a group of us. And Lastly, even though we didnt start dancing until 830pm for a 530pm wedding because the entrees took so long to arrive at our tables, at 1059pm the DJ announced "This is the last song because the wedding is over", and as soon as the song was over the lights were turned on full blast and we were ushered out of the venue!!!!! since attending the wedding I have spoken to 3 other people who have had similar unpleasant experiences attending weddings at Zorvinos! That is truly unfortunate since it is such a beautiful venue!!!

Zorvino Vineyards exceeded all of our expectations. The grounds are beautiful and neatly groomed. The architecture of the reception area is one that is creative and has a warm feeling. More than the physical appearance of Zorvinos, the Staff is some of the nicest most accommodating people I have ever worked with. With such an important event in ones life Rue, Sally and Brian really get it. With few places left that make you feel like you are # 1, they did it for us. All of our guests raved about Zorvinos. The food and wine are delicious. The Staff is second to none. The grounds are picturesque. When all three of these come together, it is something truly special. All this for a very reasonable price compared to other venues. We plan to go back and visit the place where we tied the knot. Go back taste some wine, purchase a couple of bottles and do it again as often as we like. Thank you, forever a loyal and happy customer.

I dont even buy wine at the store anymore. If I want wine, I drive to Zorvino Vineyards. They offer free wine tasting daily from 12pm to 5pm. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to take the time teach you about their wines. My favorites are the Sangiovese (a light, dry red wine that adds a lot of class to a casual pizza dinner) and the Papa Zs Bluez (a delicately sweet blueberry wine). In fact, Zorvinos fruit wines have changed the way I think about fruit wines in general. . .you wont find sickly sweet Boons Farm-esque fruit wines here. They have a wide selection with a dozen or so varieties available at a time, so youre sure to find something you love. Prices are very reasonable (about $10-15 a bottle).

I cant speak for events, but for a wine tasting and tour the staff was great, friendly, and knowledgeable. I saw one review that stated the wines were "too sweet". I will say most of the wines we tasted were sweet, but not all of them. The Syrah was not sweet. Also, my sister pointed out she mostly liked dry wines so they pointed out others for her on their list that we did not taste. I personally like both sweet and dry. My favorites of those I tried so far were the Pearz and their chocolate red dessert wine--so so good. I will be buying and trying more of their wines :) The property was also really nice I loved the koi pond and the style of the building and wood work.

Very cute family owned winery with a great variety of reasonably priced wines. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. I am giving it four stars instead of five ONLY because there is no restaurant attached or any way to have a meal there if you go for the wine tasting. So maybe eat before you go, because you get nine tastings for $3.

The Vineyard Events team, and the Zorvino Vineyard team are both great. Vineyard Events helped with our wedding- they were so accommodating and nice to work with. The vineyard team is always welcoming into their shop. I highly recommend going here for a wine tasting, an event and most importantly your wedding!
