My friend and I decided to do a tasting and were able to try 5-6 different types of wine. A lot of wines were in the dryer side. The bottles are also themed after the Wizard of Oz so it makes a perfect souvenir. I ended up buying 2 bottles as gifts. My one complaint is how expensive the bottles are. Both bottles that I purchased were around $25 dollars each which is more than what I'm used to. I did enjoy the winery overall and it's a perfect stop while visiting Wamego

Is it the best I have ever had nope but you can see the potential as they continue to improve. The service was on point, they have some great local art and goods that are pretty amazing. So if you get a chance to drive by and sit a relax, it maybe too hot outside but they have some very comfortable indoor seating. Good times with decent wine.

And because it's the summer of 2024, the cicadas were singing loudly in the trees. The building itself is very modern with spacious and inviting indoor seating as well as ample patio seating outdoors. There is a vast selection of wines, beers, and ciders on tap. I thoroughly (and by thoroughly I mean three bottles worth!) enjoyed the apple pie cider and bought a 4-pack to take with me back to Iowa. The service was outstanding as every server I interacted with was friendly and knowledgeable about the products. Prices are very reasonable. May have to stop in again before heading back home in a couple of days!

The elderberry wine is wonderful, the experience at this winery not so good. We walked into an…read moreempty winery with kids toys scattered around the floor. A woman with her child came out but did not offer a tasting or any other help. She told her child to pick up the toys after I almost tripped on one, and the child ignored her. I finally asked if we could taste the semi-dry elderberry because we were not able to find it locally. She poured one sample. We had to share the sample. No other tastings were offered. We asked for a case of the wine which she brought out. We asked where they shipped the semi-dry wine in the KC area. She mentioned a few places where they shipped wine, but had no idea where they shipped semi-dry, and did not offer to find out and get back with us. When paying, the screen asked for a tip of over $20. For what? Needless to say, I skipped the tip screen. Five stars for the wine, zero stars for the winery.

The real reason for my 3 star rating is that they have so many wines and meads but you can only taste 5. Granted it's 5 for free but I think they need a pay options too for everyone.

The cozy, warm ambiance of the place makes it feel like the ideal place to unwind. I started with a wine flight that included a white, Moscato, and a sweet red. While they were a bit on the dry side for my super-sweet wine preferences, they were still enjoyable. The mulled cider, however, was the real star--absolutely delicious! We also ordered some snacks to share: a pepperoni flatbread and a charcuterie board. They arrived fresh and fast, and the server took the time to explain each item on the board, making the experience even more enjoyable. Everything was top-notch and super tasty. What really stood out was the friendly, knowledgeable staff, who made sure we had everything we needed. There's also a big patio that's perfect for summer months, offering a great place to relax and enjoy the outdoors with a glass of your favorite drink. Plates and water were readily available for self-service, which was a nice touch. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the area--such a great spot with the perfect combination of warmth, good food, and great drinks!
