The weather was indeed a bonus from mother nature. Imagine visiting a place like this is heavy rain or overcast. Obviously the castle is the same, but the photos would have been terrible.

Indeed some serious money has been spent in order to bring the castle to this condition. I was thinking the same, I mean it's a pleasure to work here, but after a while it is just work as you're doing the same round over and over again. So I'd prefer to be a visitor 😄

You can opt for wine tasting, there are tours that include that as well, but it's not cheap. We kind of know these wines as are available almost everywhere. So we opted for the simple ticket without tasting or lunch.
