"I’ve been coming to Wine 101 since they were one of the only joints in that area. At that time, they were housed inside the little house-like structure which I believe now is a coffee shop. It was gorgeous. Fire pits sprinkled around the generously spaced out seating affording guests privacy and a little warmth in the cooler months. The previous owners did a bang up job of getting to know their customers. They routinely did rounds saying hello and asking how your stay was. You always saw them and they made lots of opportunities to speak to us. It became so comfortable that we became wine club members. The wine club held many perks including hosting events strictly for members. —Smart business practice given that during the COVID lockdown, the monthly memberships sustained Wine 101 during those lean times. Unfortunately, the new ownership has not taken the lead. I believe the new owners took over nearly a year and a half ago. I’m still a member but have yet to meet the new owner. And unless I’m mistaken-there hasn’t been any kind of meet-and-great for the wine club. I don’t expect a lot, but it would be nice to see the owners coming around to the tables-to introduce themselves and say hello. Open communication goes a long way I still enjoy coming out and sitting under those glorious treesbut the shine is off the penny. The food is still good although the prices have jumped rather drastically (the cheese board went up about $10). And I’m glad to see a salmon appetizer back on the menu. I hope for the sake of the business, the new ownership do more to make their customers feel welcome and appreciated. It would be a shame to loose this -once-little gem. New owners: please do better."
