What should I expect at Kruze Rd Winery?
Our taproom is an outdoor tasting experience. Expect plenty of dirt, sunshine, critters, and farm noises from neighbors. There is no dress code. Please wear what you like; shorts, blue jeans, dresses, slacks, all are welcomed. Be advised, however, our grounds are not very high-heel friendly.
What can I expect at a wine tasting?
Every wine tasting at Kruze Rd Winery is unique in that you'll be served by the winemakers themselves! You'll be able to taste, chat about and unpack our various offerings, while we learn about your tastes and tailor the next round to you. We believe in making wine accessible to all and it's perfectly okay to use the adjectives you know to describe our wine.
​
If you want to unleash your inner wine enthusiast, we can guide you through the five "S"s of wine tasting: See, Swirl, Sniff, Sip, and Savor.
​
We want to promote an open environment for all. Steal a corner with your loved one, or chat our ear off about last night's game! So long as you come back for a second glass, we don't mind!
​
Are dogs permitted at the winery?
We love visits from all kinds of "well behaved" and socialized* dogs. When bringing your fur babies for an outing, please have them relieve themselves in the dog walk area and not in the vineyard. Please pick up their #2 and dispose in marked receptacle. Dogs must be leashed at all times for the safety of other guests and servers.
​
*We occasional have other dogs visiting too, aggressive behavior towards other visitors - both dogs and humans makes a very uncomfortable situation for all.
​
​
Are children permitted at the winery?
The winery is designed as a place for "adult relaxation time" for those 21 and over. With the exception of a quick stop for bottle purchases, there is nothing to entertain children. That being said, traveling guest have brought well behaved children and their own drink/snack while parents participated in a quick tasting in our courtyard area.
If you must bring your children with you, there are a few rules that we ask you to follow:
-
Please sit with your children in the courtyard area (under 21 not allowed in bar area)
-
Please do not let your children:
-
roam around and "treasure hunt" the marbles, they are intentionally scattered through the grounds to keep birds away.
-
climb on the hay derrick or any vineyard trellis system.
-
touch or play with the animal metal sculptures, they are sharp and can cut easily.
-
wash their hands or make mud cakes in our fountain.
​
Can I order wine online?
Not currently. We believe wine tastes best when shared in the comfort of others. We are currently dedicated to building a local community of Kruze Rd Wine enthusiasts. If you can, we encourage you to come and visit us.
