For example, Jessica poured the Grenache on the tasting menu and then opened a bottle of Rhapsodie to let us detect the same Grenache grape that is 68% of the Rhapsodie blend. It was entertaining as well as educational to hear her describe the wines. Our experience started with our friendly and very knowledgeable sommelier (Jessica). Driving home from Paso Robles yesterday, we fortuitously stopped here and had one of the best wine-tasting experiences we have ever had while escaping the worst downpour of the afternoon. It's a favorite and always on our loop when we taste wine in Santa Inez.
My wife and I have visited this winery a number of times over the years. But it's so worth making the trip and the plan.
It is also limited because you're required to have reservations. I can't stress enough how unique this opportunity is. The people who do the tastings are knowledgeable and can educate you and this is always a joy. The views are astonishing beautiful chairs overlooking the grapes sitting under three oak trees on a deck that's been built around those trees. If you're a wine member they're even more benefits. Once you're seated you will receive your pre-ordered cheeses or charcuterie plates and choose from three or four of the tastings. They're checking not only your reservation and if you don't have one you're going to get turned away, but also pouring you a glass of Sauvignon Blanc just as you walk towards your table or seats. As an example when you come in you're greeted similar to a restaurant by someone at the front. They're just so many little touches that are unique. As an example if you're a wine club member they will have your wines ready for you based on your membership, or they may have a preference that you keep in their system and have that ready. What made this tasting so impressive was they absolutely gear the tastings towards people and what they want.
The qualities of Rusack wine has always been excellent whether it's under the current winemaker or under John and Helen in the past.

Nonetheless once you get past that system and the technology is not that great, you're in for a treat that is the way the valley used to be before the movie sideways. Given I've owned a winery that's saying a lot. This is one of the only wineries I've been to that requires reservations.
