"Matt Oetinger designed and installed my hillside vineyard nine years ago. He understood that the vineyard would be an integral part of our overall landscaping plan for our backyard. The installation was done in a timely manner, using high quality Merlot plants. I am very pleased with my experience working with Matt and his maintenance crew. I am even more pleased with the final results, great wine." - Bob L.

"Our experience with Fernwood Cellars from its inception has been fantastic.  They installed our Zin grapes around 5 years ago and harvested our first bottle just this last fall. The group of guys that come out to maintain our grapes have done a great job and Matt's direction for Bob and I as to the little things we need to pay attention to during the grapes maturity has taught us a lot and has been invaluable.  Our wine has turned out to be a hit as well among family and friends."  - Melanie and Bob Adamo

"It was a pleasure working with Matt in planning and installing our one-acre home vineyard in 2000.  Matt listened to our desires, offered great solutions and did a very professional job of installing our Merlot vineyard.  Since that time we have worked with Matt in all phases of growing fine wine grapes. We have thoroughly enjoyed working with you over the last decade." - Jim B.
