My boyfriend, Matthew and I visited The Wine Garden one evening and enjoyed a flight of wines that showcased Folktale’s diverse wine offerings. The wine tasting was accompanied by a Sweet Heat 2.0 pizza with honey drizzle, spicy Italian sausage, pepperoni, stracciatella, fennel pollen, chili oil, and honeycomb crumble. It was quite delightful! The string lights, fire pits, and hanging lanterns created a surreal glow in the evening and set the mood.
