The visitor center is warm and well-decorated, and the tour (about 45 minutes in length) was the best $10 we've ever spent. The guide was friendly, personable, and knowledgeable and the facilities were fun and interesting to visit. Of course there's a tasting at the end, which for me was the best part. Lots to buy in the gift shop.
