      Five stars! The attention to details was wonderful. Because it was the second year for the event, there are, of course, kinks to work out. In the future, maybe have more than two lines for wine tasting. Five should do it, if the vendors can handle the volume. Looking forward to next year!

      I enjoyed the bus trip and the driver made the ride very smoothly to our destination and Fun. However, the reason for my rating is the trip overall experience at the Rose event. It was not worth the amount of money to go to this event. I did not throughly enjoy myself nor was I able to look at the venue and art or enjoy the other events at the Rose event that took place. Most of my time was spent in line waiting to sample the Rose wine. When our group tried to sample wines outside we was directed back to the line. It took at least 1 hr 1/2 to 2hrs to sample some of the rose wines. I do not believe that they was prepared for the amount of people that arrive to the event. I did enjoy the different roses that was there from various wineries to taste. I have been a few that was there at the event. Some of the people that were pouring the wine were not fully knowledgeable on the price or some the questions i had regarding the samples. The food was not worth the money either. I wanted a hotdog was coleslaw only I was told I had to purchase it with the chili and coleslaw or have it plain. The hotdogs were made to order, so I was very perplexed as to why I'm paying 15 dollars for something I want that I can't get it the way I want it. I would have rather took a bus trip to some of the various wineries in charlottesville than to waste most of my time in line for wine tasting. I did like the music 🎶 the dj was great and the venue overall was beautiful but unfortunately I spent most of my time in line.

      I had a great time. Experiencing a historical luncheon spot Michie Tavern and the beautiful, peaceful surrounding on grounds of the Daze of Rose' event. Good wine, good people, good food = great day!

      I had a wonderful day. It was a very nice trip. The food at Michie Tavern was good. The staff was very attentive and served us quickly. There was no wait if you wanted something. I was happy to be able to get vegetarian/pescatarian options as well . I am sorry the lines were so long at The Daze of Rose. I was not able to actually taste the wines this year. I only tasted a couple that were outside the venue at the tent area. I hope they organize it a bit better next year . I really like when we can go from booth to booth and can take our own time to taste the wines.
