3.00This is a very expensive way to sample some wine. Paying an additional $50 per person per tasting at each vineyard means that you’re paying close to $300.

4.00great fun but costs should be discussed before departure , only one castle on tour which was amazing but expensive wine tasting, I would recommend the castle tour and tasting at the next stop, wine was very good here , Raymond winery charged if you had a wine tasting or not? The 30 year old trolley broke down after the last stop, stranded along the road for an hour, had to call an uber to pick us up! Had to make our next connection!
