TERRACE TASTING
Limit six guests per party. This is a casual, self-paced tasting on our back terrace (weather permitting), or indoors in our Oval Room. This includes a tasting of approximately six wines, featuring our flagship wine, Insignia, without the in-depth, more formal presentation of the seminar setting. These tastings are offered Monday through Friday beginning at 10:00 a.m. with the last tasting beginning at 3:30 p.m. On Saturdays and Sundays, tastings begin at 10:00 a.m. with the last tasting beginning at 2:30 p.m. There are two Terrace Tasting options, $35 and $70; both include our flagship wine, Insignia.
TERRACE TASTING RESERVATIONS:
By appointment only. To e-mail a request, contact Luba Rusyn, Guest Services Manager.
If you are a Phelps Preferred member, your Phelps Preferred Membership entitles you to enjoy 4 complimentary tastings per visit, either in one of our four main Exceptional Wine Experiences or a Terrace Tasting (excludes the Limited Edition Wine & Cheese Pairing and Insignia Historical Tasting). [Additional guests enjoy tasting our wines or attending an Exceptional Wine Experience at half-price.]
