If you’ve got a sweet tooth, you’ll love pairing the wines with a box of specialty handmade chocolates. There’s even something called the chocolate wine that just needs to be tried to be believed.

Aside from chocolates, the winery doesn’t offer food but encourages visitors to bring a picnic with them to enjoy in the conservatory.
