点评:Prior to our visit to Source at Sula - some 30 minutes drive from Nashik - we had seen several videos uploaded by earlier visitors to this heritage winery which caught our attention . But seeing is believing ! The sight of the vast complex , seeing grapes under harvest , tall wine bottle replicas which serve as backdrop for pictures , the landscaped gardens with colourful flowers , the magnificent lobby et all simply takes your breath away in sheer amazement . I pinched myself and asked - Is all this for real !!!
After a super efficient check in , we moved to our accommodation in Court Yard - a very well furnished and equipped room with all amenities , plenty of mineral water bottles , a complimentary wine bottle and requisite toiletries provided in the washroom .
The food at the Rasa , which is near the entrance to the Source at Sula , was very delicious. However , the service was rather slow - perhaps on account of high occupancy . An electric buggy took us there from our room and brought us back after we had finished .
Evening was fixed for a guided tour of wine processing facilities, where we saw huge steel containers and wooden barrels containing 000s of litres of wine stored in low temperatures , the tour ending with sampling of wines produced at the Vinery , a good percentage of which is also exported as we were informed during the tour .
Dinner was again served at the Rasa , only that it was shifted outside under the stars, with charpoys for seating , providing yet another kind of experience .
The breakfast buffet at the La Bodega next day morning , right in front of the room assigned to us - served delightful dishes . We specially relished soft multigrain idlies , peas paranthas with curd , sauted mushrooms , masala dosas prepared right in front of us and fresh watermelon juice , although the quality of croissant was positively bad , suggest that this be removed from the menu .
12.15 PM: Time for check out . The electric buggy driver came to pick us up and take us to the cab parking point some 300 m. away , marking the end of our 24 hours stay at this wonderful place .
Special mentions ; Ananthan Nair, Guest Relations Manager , Prateek Dahade - Concierge Desk , Vaishnavi - Reception Check in for their courtesies and assistance.
The Source at Sula - spend 2 days there for an experience of your life time , October - January should be the best months for the visit , I think .
翻译:在我们参观苏拉的 Source 酒庄(距离纳西克约 30 分钟车程)之前,我们看过之前参观这个传统酒庄的游客上传的几段视频,这些视频引起了我们的注意。但眼见为实!巨大的建筑群、正在采摘的葡萄、作为照片背景的高大的酒瓶复制品、盛开着五彩缤纷花朵的园林、宏伟的大堂等等,都让您惊叹不已。我掐了自己一下,问道——这一切都是真的吗!!!
经过非常高效的入住手续后,我们搬到了 Court Yard 的住宿——一间布置精美、设备齐全的房间,配有所有便利设施,洗手间提供大量矿泉水瓶、免费葡萄酒瓶和必备的洗漱用品。
Rasa 餐厅靠近苏拉的 Source 酒庄入口,食物非常美味。然而,服务相当慢——可能是因为入住率高。一辆电动车把我们从房间送到那里,吃完饭再把我们送回来。
晚上安排了一次葡萄酒加工设施的导览,在那里我们看到了巨大的钢制容器和木桶,里面装着数千升低温储存的葡萄酒,游览结束时品尝了葡萄园生产的葡萄酒,其中很大一部分也出口了,我们在游览期间了解到了这一点。
晚餐再次在 Rasa 供应,只是它被转移到了星空下的室外,有躺椅供人坐下,提供了另一种体验。
第二天早上,我们在 La Bodega 享用了自助早餐,就在我们分配到的房间前面——供应的菜肴非常美味。我们特别喜欢柔软的全麦蒸米糕、豌豆帕兰塔饼配凝乳、炒蘑菇、当着我们的面制作的马萨拉多萨饼和新鲜的西瓜汁,尽管羊角面包的质量实在太差,建议将其从菜单中删除。
12.15 PM:退房时间。电动车司机来接我们,把我们带到 300 米外的出租车停车点,标志着我们在这个美妙地方的 24 小时住宿结束。
特别感谢:客户关系经理 Ananthan Nair、礼宾台 Prateek Dahade、接待处 Vaishnavi 的礼貌和帮助。
The Source at Sula - 在那里度过 2 天,体验一生难忘的时光,我认为 10 月至 1 月应该是游览的最佳月份。
