"Looking back on our visit to Bigsby's, I cannot help but be disappointed. We planned to stop in when we visited Denver in 2022, so when we returned in 2023, we knew we had to try harder to make the trip.Overall, the space itself is nice. Very nice aesthetics inside, with a nice patio outside for when the weather decides to cooperate. There are plenty of windows all around to let in natural light.When we arrived in the middle of the afternoon on a Saturday, the winery wasn't very busy. There were a couple of tables here and there, and a larger group that was wrapping up their visit. The staff were also helping prepare for an on-site wedding later that day. Despite what seemed like a manageable number of guests, we waited extended periods of time to be served throughout the time we were there. At one point, our server even admitted that she forgot about us.We decided to start with the Folly 5 Wine Tasting, assuming they would pick five wines that highlight their wines the best. Being the middle of summer, we were rather surprised that 4/5 of the wines on the tasting were reds. We hoped that maybe they were lighter reds given the season but after trying everything, we think that they just stick with the same 5 wines throughout the year. The Brut Cuvee was our favorite of the bunch. The reds were generally disappointing.We decided to order some food while we were there and settled on a meat and cheese board. At first glance, the presentation of everything looked pretty good, and we were kind of impressed coming off of the wines. But then we started actually eating what was on the board, and we realized that the flavors were not very cohesive. The pile of mustard did not go well with any cheeses, nor did the pickled vegetables. It was a strange combination of items that seemed more like they were there to look nice than actually be a well thought out food board."
