    The wine is excellent, I love how Pietro seeks out uncommon varietals allowing for a more interesting tasting.

    We came to taste some wine and share some pleasant time with friends before a dinner reservation. Prima has a nice set-up where you can do a tasting of 6 of the wines they are pouring for $20. A cheese and chorizo plate to accompany costs $18 and was pretty good. Nice to have the cheeses to go with the wine. Their wine varietals are pretty unique and generally well executed. Price point of the wine is reasonable and a good value. Overall (TLDR): low key, enjoyable experience. I'd come back again to enjoy some pleasant wine tasting close to home. The good: interesting varietals at a good price. Our server was very nice. The menu explains the varietals nicely so that you knew what to expect from wines you've probably not heard of before. Saves a lot of questions. the bad: nothing The mediocre: I guess you could call the ambiance around where we were seated as nothing terribly special, but it didn't detract from the wine tasting either.

    I took my husband and in-laws for wine tasting to celebrate his 30th birthday. The service was wonderful! All of the wines were delicious. I highly recommend the cheese plate. The roasted almonds were amazing. There’s a little back area that’s perfect for taking pictures. I will definitely be going back.

    First off, the wine is special. It was amazing how Pietro, the winemaker, could capture the heritage of the Italian varietals while also getting the best of Lake County's terroir to complement. The alley is simple and quaint and easy to sit and savor the variety. It's a great place for a great conversation about work or something more intimate, if you'd like. In vino veritas, and in Prima Materia a perfect place to learn that lesson.

    Is a very nice tasting room with very good accompaniments. Unfortunately, the weather was very cold and the ally was very windy, but overall great experience. We will be back later in the spring and summer.
