"The wineries selected were of very low quality."
This tour was a huge letdown. The tour guide did alright. The wineries selected were of very low quality. Homewood was the first. Tolerable but not great. We were eagerly anticipating the picnic lunch and subsequent tasting. The grounds looked good. Lunch consisted of a dry sandwich and a few nibbles. Servings were made outside in the wind and sun (poor planning or better accommodations and food). Sadly, despite the fact that the wine was excellent, it was impossible for us to purchase because they would not ship to Hawaii. We were still billed for the tasting. Roche was the final location. The individual conducting the tasting was lamenting his high level of stress. swiftly poured into stemless wine glasses. Sadly, we chose to have a cheese plate (because the lunch was not so good). We had to protest about how outdated it was. He grabbed it right away and snatched it away. Since we had to leave the following morning and Platypus was our main experience, it's a good thing we conducted a taste on our own the previous day. Truly awful. I don't usually complain about stuff like this, but it was terrible.
