To start off, I opted for the the 3 tastings for $5.00 - I chose #1: Albert 703 #2: Cynthiana #3: Broken Barrel As I progressed from 1-3, the more I enjoyed the flavor (that's just me). I really enjoyed the bourbon barrel flavor and aroma - a very nice dry wine. I had a great conversation with the owner, Donna, who stated they had been in commercial operations for 10 years and having this physical site open for 8 years. She was a wealth of information and extremely nice and cool person to talk with - she knows he wines! After discovering the Broken Barrel was my favorite, I decided to purchase a bottle and enjoy the pastoral setting of the outdoor seating overlooking their lake. What a nice way to enjoy a beautiful fall afternoon! I highly recommend you check this place out!

They have a small gift shop as well as a tasting room. Tastings are only 3.00 for 3 selections! Since my wife and I love reds that are not sweet,we were able to try 6 different wines. The pours are served in small plastic containers and we each were given water as well as a wine glass to sample the wines. We ended up purchasing 2 bottles and we're glad we stopped.

Plenty of samples to be had before making our final decision. I had the Ribeye and my wife had the smoked ribs. Meal was served on plastic plates as this is not a restaurant. Do not let this deter you from this place. Both were to excellent. Ribs were nice and Smokey. We had the option of dining inside or out. We opted for inside due to 90° weather. Inside is in the renovated 100 yr old barn. Great atmosphere with plenty of knickknacks and signage to purchase. The views are awesome here as this winery is out in the country.

The menu was several pages but only one page with food, drinks were the remainder. We got the dipper appetizer and I had the Sassy Chicken Thighs. Both were good and the thigh was boneless. My wife had the loaded potato salad, asparagus, and broccoli which she enjoyed. My son had the Steak Sliders with the potato salad which he really enjoyed. I suppose when the chef can master a menu there's no need for multiple pages. I misjudged and would definitely come back if I'm in town again.

The Salty Caesar Flatbread was exceptional, romaine, herb chicken, bacon, tomatoes, mozzarella, and parmesan all piled on a flatbread, you just have to try it. The Shaved steak sliders were topped with a horseradish aioli and really didn't need the au jus but it was a nice addition. And leave room for dessert because the Blueberry Cobbler was also something that you have to try. Served perfectly warm with just a small scoop of ice cream.
