Called the stature challenge door, people had a choice of six spaces to walk through, with the slimmest gap labelled congratulations, while the largest was called big boned.
Larger shapes were deemed overweight, chubby, plump, with smaller spaces named standard and fit-looking.
Outraged visitors branded the gates disgusting, and called for them to be removed.
One woman shared an angry snap of the pink gates to Facebook, demanding the winery remove them.

Visitor Shannyn Tucker wrote: Im sorry but this is actually disgusting. I dont understand how this acceptable in this era.
