Costa De Oro Wine Tasting

Wonderful hang out for the Friday Night Wine down. Wonderful music, great people, good wine. And with the addition of Chef Rick and his wonderfully created dinners. The combination makes for a spectacular evening.

Myself and four friends stopped in here on our way to Sonoma just for fun — and to see if their tastings were complimentary. The lady on staff was awe-​strikingly rude to us and laughed in our faces about finding anywhere from the Central coast through Napa/​Sonoma with complimentary tastings. And supposedly Napa/​Sonoma would be 3X as expensive as Costa de Oro’s tastings… Ha! Napa/​Sonoma tastings were half the cost of Costa de Oro, and much tastier I’m sure. For example, Imagery in Sonoma was $ 10 a tasting for pretty much any and all of their wines that were available and the wines were spectacular — and the service was too. Another example — Jacuzzi in Sonoma was complimentary and probably always will be — and both the wine and service was outstanding.
When it comes down to it, terrible service will leave a bad taste in your mouth that will overshadow any wine no matter how good it is. I highly recommend not wasting your time even pulling off the gas station exit to visit Costa de Oro.
