Each person gets up 8 free tastings + 5 free whiskey, tasting If you're looking for a picturesque stop with a fun and laid-back Kentucky winery experience, it's definitely worth a visit. The setting is a 5-star experience--the wine itself was more hit-or-miss for us and didn't quite live up to the beauty of the property (whiskey was better! ) but still recommend visiting for the atmosphere alone. They also had free NA beverages for the kids, which is nice!

There is a large indoor area and a huge back patio partly covered/partly uncovered overlooking a small pond that provides a nice lively but pretty setting in which to enjoy your wine. The parking lot is right out front. They allow you to bring in food and do permit dogs on-leash. When we entered, we saw lots of rather typical wine merchandise to buy. We were hoping to have wine flights outside on the patio, but they only do flights inside at the walk-up bar. Instead, we had a couple of small tastes and picked a bottle of wine to bring out back on the patio. There was a live band performing which was nice. Lots of seating and an energetic vibe. We enjoyed our wine as well. You have the option to either keep your wine glasses as a souvenir or return them to get your deposit back.
