Whilst the cellar door is in the temperature controlled wine storage shed they have presented the room really well with staggered pallets of wine on display and some really interesting tasting benches and furniture built from parts of of wine barrels. To make it more cosy on a cold winters day, they have placed gas heaters next to the tasting benches
