My wife and I love this winery! We discovered it about 4 years ago while we were living in Ocala. We fell in love with their Carlos Wine (white sweet, with Muscatine grapes- fruity and aromatic) and have picked up a few bottles every time we visit. We tried a sample of their Dragon Blood wine (sweet, blueberry with hibiscus- aroma of honey, juicy blueberry) while visiting last Saturday. It tasted divine, we picked up a few bottles as well. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Their sampling room atmosphere was great, the staff and the patrons were friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will be coming back, again and again. read more

We stopped at this adorable winery, [[HIGHLIGHT]]the interior was beautifully decorated.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff especially the owner were welcoming and offered impeccable service. To my surprise, on the way to the restroom, [[HIGHLIGHT]]I was met with a bigger outdoor area great for wine tasting and dining.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's family friendly, and I can't wait to come back. read more

The wines were all so good and the pretzels with a small bit of cheese and meat were perfect with the melted cheese, grainy mustard, and a sweet mustard dipping sauce. After another winery would not serve us due to the fact that we had an animal (I've been called worse) and a dog we landed here and I'm so glad we did! My only complaint was that I would have loved to take more bottles home (I just chose one) but that means that I will need to return. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A relaxed vibe without feeling like a lowbrow or dive, it was the perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] See you soon, Dragon Flower! read more

We were in the area, this past weekend, visiting family, and my BF remembered reading about Dragon Flower Winery, so we decided to stop by for a tasting. We went in to check out the vibe and when told the ladies behind the counter we were just stopping by quick because our dog was in the car one of them immediately said he was welcomed too. They have a very nice outside area on the back were dogs are welcomed. So we stayed for a full tasting and ordered the charcuterie board to pair them with. The tasting price is amazing, only $0.75/ sample and they have about 6 - 8 wines to taste, whites and reds, plus their sangria. You can pick which ones you want to try, they put them on the tasting tray for you, and you can either stay inside or enjoy the outside area. The Hibiscus wine was very interesting to us, and ended up buying a bottle. The Rustic Red is almost as if it has soda in it making it refreshing for the Summer time. And the Petit Syrah was the other one that I would recommend. The Sangria was sweet, and only available to drink there. The rest weren't really my type of wines but the experience itself, the friendly service, the beautiful charcuterie presentation, and the relaxing outside seating is enough to make me want to come back read more

We finally got to stop into one of the rare wineries in Florida , Dragon Flower. I had heard about it and we planned to stop in when in the neighborhood. I was up to see my parents so it was a perfect opportunity. Well not perfect, as we had our dog Augie. but when I asked it was a very dog friendly spot out back so we headed that way. They had many many tables out back, some with campfires and others that were set up in a circle or picnic tables as well. We got our tasting setup and a charcuterie board too and grabbed a spot. It was a perfect time to be sitting in the back yard with a beverage. they weren't the best wines but they were fine. We weren't expecting Napa Valley greatness in the reds but the whites were crispy goodness. There was a horse corralled nearby too so that added to the airy spring ambiance of the place. After a nice tasting and a darn good charcutier board(except a cheese they added that was exceptionally spicy, and I like hot). the spicy cheese didn't belong on the board. It was great to find out the northern Florida winery is good. I look forward to spreading the word. read more

We found this little winery looking for local things to do this weekend. What a beautiful and quiet place. We tried some flights of their wine, had a few beers, and got to talk to the owner, Dean. Everyone was very welcoming and personable. The wine was delicious and refreshing, and the crowd favorite of the night was called the Carlos. We spoke to Dean for a little about how he started making wine and got to know him a little bit. Great guy and a great place to check out. They even rent their outdoor space as a venue. It's such a beautiful little setup. read more

We were heading back from Ocala on Hwy 42 in Summerfield and saw wine tasting signs along the road. The Dragon Flower Winery is set back off the road. What looked to be a well maintained old farm house was to our left as we came to a large parking lot in front of a long wine crafting building. On the west end of the building was the tasting room. They have both their handcrafted wines and craft beers. They had 8 wines/meads to taste and or buy. The tastes were small cup for 25 cents. You can buy by the glass or the bottle. There were 3 reds, 2 blush and 3 whites. We decided to do a tasting. The tasting is done in small plastic cups then placed on a barn wood board with holes to hold the cups. They were unique I tend to like big bold reds so the 3 reds were a must for me. They were all good and it was a great experience. I look forward to going back. read more

Dragon Flower Winery is super cosy and welcoming venue. Right off the door we were met with all smiles wonderful hosts! The wine samples were 50 cents each which made the experience not only pleasant, but quite affordable. One can wine taste right here or can take the samples outside where the love music is. Speaking of outside, it was fabulous! Covered area and green garden next to it have all anyone would need: covered seated area by the music for the adults; garden area with a football and mini basketball game for the kids; few horses nearby that allow one to feed them. The atmosphere was very relaxing, pleasant and recharging for outside experience! The winery does their wines a little bit on the sweet side for my particular taste, however they tasted great! Few cheese and fruits are available as well for $10-$15 price range to share and enjoy! Whether on a solo adventure, afternoon date, or with the family - this is a great weekend spot to visit and enjoy! read more

A wonderful and delightful afternoon here! The wines were all very tasty! A nice variety to pick from! Really enjoyed their charcuterie board and their pretzel with beer cheese (I could eat the beer cheese with a spoon it was so good!)! All the staff was polite and talkative! They carry full bottles to purchase (always a plus in my mind), and some local crafts that were very well prices and super adorable! Love local products and venues! Great after noon at a great place! read more

Super cute little winery with excellent wine! Our waitress was very sweet and explained our sample flights, as well as what was included on the charcuterie board. Definitely a hit with us! We'll definitely be back read more

This was the second of two winery stops on a Saturday in December. This place is open only on the weekends but even then wasn't too crowded. Cute interior with a large patio for outdoor seating. This wine is made from hibiscus and other fruits. If you are a regular wine drinker, these wines may not be for you but if you're looking for something unique, it's a fun stop. read more

The venue is excellent; service is superb. The wine however is very esoteric to that area. If you are a seasoned wine drinker you will most likely shy away from it. That being said it is worth a look albeit for the atmosphere. read more

Great place to relax with friends and enjoy some snacks and great wine. The folks there are friendly and very accommodating. See you there!

Great fruit wines and ambiance. Loved it. They also have a good selection of can beers.

Great winery. Feels like family. They make you feel right at home. It's a hidden gem.

Great wines and beers. Relaxing patio area outback and very nice area inside. Friendly owner and staff. Will return!

This place was so fun! I searched yelp for wineries, and we stopped in this place. The inside was small, but the outside area was huge. They had corn hole, ramps outside leading to the bathrooms, and the wine was so good! The owner even stopped over and chatted up my parents-they live in the same community as his parents. Samples are only $.25 each. My dad loved the place and plans to bring fiends here in the future. read more

This new winery is a great find, worth driving to to enjoy their varied selection of handcrafted wines. The beautifully elegant rustic decor is very warm and inviting, using reclaimed woods and iron. There's also a covered area behind the tasting room with tables, perfect for bringing your own picnic and enjoying a glass or bottle. The owner was behind the bar pouring our samples and sharing his story of the winery's beginning. There's something for everyone from dry to sweet in both whites and reds. Luckily tastings are only 25 cents so you're free to sample with abandon! They have a good selection of wines to purchase by the bottle, and will be changing what's available depending on what inspires them. Really a great place to sample some local flavor. read more

We have been going to this Winery for a few years now, sorry for not writing about it before. The setting is so charming from the tasting room to the outside venue, which is a terrific spot for a larger gathering or just taking in the quaint surroundings. The owners are vey welcoming.
