I really enjoyed the location for this wine tasting it was a beautiful, modern bar with a variety of wines. The price for this tasting is very high for the 4 small tastes and 2 nibbles. We were attended to quickly, however we were hoping to get more information about each varietal, vineyard, etc. and did not get much beyond the name of the wine. We were a little rushed in order to accommodate the dinner time reservations it would have been nice to linger longer. I highly recommend visiting Estro, though I'd pay individually for each pour/snack for a better overall value.

I am pretty sure anyone could show up at the bar and ask for a sampling of wines - there was no group and no real experience. The wines were okay but i wouldn't do this again.

There was no one there to meet us at the designated time. We called the on the page and the person on the phone just told us to go inside. The place was closed and the doors locked. They called the bar and a lady opened the door. She had us go sit and wait for about 15 min, while she did other things and attended other patrons walking in. The tasting consisted of 4 wines, 2 white/2red and 1 bite to go with each one. No explanation other than if it was dry or sweet, and that whites go with fish, reds with meat. After the wine was poured2 at a time, the lady told us she was leaving us to look at the bottles... Most of the time, we were left just sitting there. I, personally, do not recommend this wine tasting experience. There are so many other bars with better wine, food, service, and personality. Not worth the money and time.
