My Date at Shinn by charlesegap on 10/29/2008
My date just emailed me with her review of our weekend at Shinn. I just wanted to chime in and say that this place really rocks!
Harvest at Shinn by blettuce456 on 10/29/2008
I spent the weekend at Shinn Estate Farmhouse and Vineyard and had a glorious time. David's breakfasts, Barbara's vineyard, Anthony's wines - all divine. I will be going back often and sending all of my friends and family.
Disappointed by uylim on 10/30/2007
This past weekend was my first time to the North Fork Vineyards and since Shinn Estate got the best reviews with great pictures on their website, I decided to check it out.
As soon as we walked in, we were treated with a very cold welcome, almost like we were disturbing them! This site might be a review for wine quality but when you're treated with rudeness, unfriendliness and a very bad attitude, it doesn't set anybody up for wine tasting! And unfortunately, this is what we received at this "Almost" 5 star rating vineyard.
We decided to try another one- Laurel Lake Vineyard. Our experience was the opposite- even though it was simple, the staff was very friendly, informative and very welcoming. It was a very enjoyable experience for both of us there.
