McConnell Estates

"The house Thaddeus built in the mid-1800’s was lived in by family members for more than 100 years, until the late 1970’s. For a brief period, it was used to store the many antiques that had been passed down over the generations. It was also a favorite location for family Halloween Parties. In 2003, the family decided to give the beautiful and historic house a new life as the current office for Wackman Ranch and the Tasting Room and Barrel Cellar for McConnell Estates Winery."

K&S Comments:

“The farmhouse is beyond charming, it’s like traveling back in time. How does a fireside tasting sound in a century old sitting room? Did I mention Sangria on the porch?”

• Tasting room is a 170 year old farmhouse.
