点评:I was in Kansas for business. My first time in the state. I live in Southern California near the Central Coast AVA (e.g. Santa Barbara, Santa Ynez, Paso Robles). My cellar is full of California wines. I stumbled on Grace Hill driving to the Wichita airport. Had time so thought "Why not?" Why not indeed. Truly amazed by the quality of their dry wines. Did not try the sweet or library. Tasting room staff, two delightful ladies whose names I never got, surprised me with their wine knowledge, cultivated palates, and exceptionally personable company. I am always on the lookout for new and unusual grapes. Scored 3 I'd never seen or tried before (Vignoles, Chardonel, Chambourcin). Much to my regret (and the damage to their revenue stream!), they cannot ship to California. I would have eagerly tried the library wines if they could ship. If they could have shipped to me, I'd have bought much more than the 3 bottles I found a miraculous way to squeeze into my checked baggage. A serious winery led and run by serious wine people. Well worth a visit.
翻译:我到堪萨斯出差。这是我第一次到这个州。我住在南加州,靠近中央海岸 AVA(例如圣巴巴拉、圣伊内斯、帕索罗布尔斯)。我的酒窖里装满了加州葡萄酒。我开车去威奇托机场时偶然发现了 Grace Hill。有时间,所以想“为什么不呢?” 确实为什么不呢。他们的干葡萄酒质量真的让我惊叹不已。没有尝试甜葡萄酒或图书馆葡萄酒。品酒室的工作人员是两位令人愉快的女士,我从未知道她们的名字,她们的葡萄酒知识、精致的味觉和非常亲切的陪伴让我感到惊讶。我一直在寻找新的和不寻常的葡萄。我得到了 3 分,我从未见过或尝试过(Vignoles、Chardonel、Chambourcin)。令我非常遗憾的是(以及对他们收入来源的损害!),他们不能运送到加利福尼亚。如果他们可以发货,我会很想尝试图书馆葡萄酒。如果他们可以给我发货,我会买更多,而不是只有 3 瓶,我发现这 3 瓶酒可以奇迹般地塞进我的托运行李里。一家由严肃的葡萄酒专家领导和经营的严肃酒庄。非常值得一游。
