The only nice think about this place is the view, the rest was just a very bad experience. We were 9 adults and 3 kids. There were 37 degrees outside and they didn't turn on the AC, the dog from the property was always in the room even if it starter to lick us and the kids were scared. The lady who was our host washed the glasses while she presented the wines and when we were outside for some photos she said we need to move from the shadows because is private property. There is no user centric location and 30 eur/person for 3 halfs of bottles of wine make no sense
