Recommend their Merlot & Chardonay. Nice mid-size winery, not as busy and packed as some of the others but not as tiny as ones like Elizabeth Spencer.

Every Sunday all year round! Quaint, friendly and a great supply of fruits, veggies, eggs, etc. I recommend the ceviche from the guy who shucks oysters - $6 - can't be beat! Also the German bread!
