This tasting room has been on my list of places to go to for the longest time. And we finally were…read moreable to make our way there. We were not disappointed. It is such a beautiful and open space which is literally right across the railroad tracks hence the name. The bourbon's, wine, and beer are all local to Kentucky. We were met with a full draft list along with flights that were available in seasonal cocktails. We opted for one of the sours from off the rails themselves and an IPA. It was very enjoyable. There was live music on the weekend and they were games in the back. It was such a nice experience and I can't wait to go back.

We lucked out since we went on "free popcorn Friday"!!! This place is all about new flavors of wine and flavorings. We tried 6 kinds - 4 were worthy (of purchase), one was a spiced wine that we decided (after much thought) that we liked. And one we did not care for. That's not a bad average. It was fun with super-nice people. Give them a try.

Barrels of good times to be had here…read more Everything is barrel strength at Whiskey Thief, so the five sample tasting is quite the gauntlet. I found the high proof points to be draining, and so I can't recommend buying a bottle with my own money. The chocolates are a must pairing. Service, however, is super chill and friendly. The bar is a chill place to hang out afterwards, and the bitter blend for their Old Fashioned is stellar. I also bought a couple bars of soap. Earthy and aromatic!

This was the second stop on our birthday tour through the Louisville bars and distilleries. We were…read moreable to park right outside the distillery in a reserved spot in sort of an alleyway. One of the things they offered in this distillery was a chance to tap right into a whiskey barrel for a flight of 5 different barrels. This was a really cool option but I knew I had a long day and evening ahead of me so I did not give it a try but definitely will be back to give it a go. They also had a chocolate pairing you could purchase with a selection for each barrel. They had a nice little gift shop and we perused what they had to offer and purchased a Glencairn glass for our collection at home. We sat down at the bar to order our cocktails. Valentine's Day (my birthday) had just passed a couple weeks prior and they still had their V-Day special on the menu so I ordered that cocktail. My cocktail was the Crushed Velvet, Whiskey Thief Bourbon, Creme de Cacao, Vanilla liqueur, Luxardo juice, chocolate bitters, and egg whites. It was a fine cocktail although not my favorite of the day. The hubby ordered a Maple Smoked Manhattan which had Whiskey Thief Bourbon, sweet vermouth, bitters, and maple syrup and he said he enjoyed it. Sitting at the bar was nice because they had a huge window open to the outside and you could feel the warmth of the day and a slight breeze. We will definitely be back to try the barrel flight and the chocolate pairing. Nice little place.

I absolutely love coming to Roselyn Hill Winery! It's right in the heart of Jtown and the inside is…read moreSO cute and cozy. They have a small tasting room, and if you're a sweet wine lover--this is definitely your place. My favorite is the Bella Rose... so good! They do have some dry options, but their sweet and more "exotic" wines really stand out. The wine tasting is such a great deal--only $10 for 6 options, and they even give you a little cup of Goldfish to snack on between tastings (which is actually perfect). They also have a larger space for events, and my friends and I did their spring mat decorating event--it was SO fun and such a cute experience. The only downside was seating for the event--we didn't realize there was a specific process for reserving spots together, so we almost didn't get to sit as a group. Luckily it worked out when someone nearby didn't show up. Overall, such a fun, relaxed spot with great vibes. I'll definitely be back!

The owners provide the standard wine options and couple them with fun sweeter mixes - for example, peanut butter wine and moscato with cotton candy. For the standard menu, I enjoyed the Malbec. Purchase flights, glasses, and bottles. Some snacks are available - and even better, you can bring in your own. A rental space that holds 88 people seated is a great spot for private celebrations. You are able to bring in your own food/catering. Appreciated the warm welcome from the owner and hearing their back story as well as the grape origin of a few of the blends. I'm excited to return! I've already messaged friends and family to share pictures and say "let's come back together".

Just attended the grand reopening at the new location recently. They were in the process of moving when the pandemic hit and I had lost all hope the tasting room would never open again. The old location on 10th street was bigger than current location. It's smaller but long on the inside best way to describe it. So as I'm attending the grand reopening, it was later in the evening beings I was going to see a Band Play at Falls City for their Birthday Bash, so the place was still somewhat hopping. I think everyone else there had quite a bit to drink as well so they had to been there awhile. Staff behind the bar was friendly and greeted me promptly as I walked up to the bar. They didn't have any seating at the bar which was odd, everyone that was at the bar was standing. I asked what flavor slushy they had because I saw 2 of them. I was told one was the Singria and the other Kentucky White Lady, one of them suggested I mix them and that's exactly what I did. I stood at the bar and sipped on my slushy. I even walked the small space and saw they have candles scented like the wine but only had 2 different ones. They have more merch now than before. In conclusion, I'm very impressed with the new setting and having the opportunity to reopen. I hope they will host the Kickoff Party For Louisville Pizza Week this year, that's what got me to go their old tasting room. I've missed them having that party last 2 years. Thanks Covid. They also have their wine cheese available too and I wanted to get the Goat Cheese that's absolutely delicious however I was going to the Birthday Bash at their neighbors (Falls City) and didn't want to carry it around or sit in my car. I will be back.

The past few weeks have been gorgeous so sitting with the garage doors open has been amazing. Mallory has also been absolutely amazing with her service. She is a gem and I love that she remembers people from week to week. They have live music on Wednesday's and both bands so far have been great. They have charcuterie boards for purchase and you can also have food delivered. The half off bottle deal is too good to pass up and I'll be stopping in on Wednesdays more frequently for a mid-week treat!

I thought I knew about most of the Kentucky wineries but somehow - this one escaped me. A friend…read moretold me about a girls night out that they were having and it sounded awesome. A pajama night and wine? Sign me up! There is parked and according to their website, they do free tastings. Since it was an after hours event, we didn't do a tasting. I had a glass of the half-hearted wine while waiting for the rest of our group to show up. Once the party arrived, we bought a bottle of Bam! and enjoyed catching up. The barn is beautiful and available for rental. They have been having event nights once a month with both beer and wine available for purchase. I'm looking forward to coming back and checking out their full wine list! The wines I tasted were right up my alley.

It is a nice venue for weddings and parties. We got to taste a few wines (mostly the sweet wines). Im not big on red wine I prefer my wine sweet. They do also have wine slushees in Grape and Cherry flavored. I had grape of course and it was delicious. I even bought a bottle of their wine but, you can only buy the bottles there and it's not sold in stores. It is a small family owned winery. And the lady that hosted our tasting was a great host and gave us the backstory of the place. I do plan on returning at some point in time. This is an awesome getaway from the city if your ever looking for an escape from it.

One Sunday afternoon we had a free time in our schedule and decided Prova would be our destination. We arrived shortly after they opened and were greeted by a festively decorated space that immediately set the mood. The friendly bartender welcomed us, and we took seats at the bar. After looking over the Christmas drink menu, I went with the Yippee-Ki-Cocoa Motherf**er--and wow, it was incredible. Made with truffle bourbon, chocolate amaro, cocoa, and topped with whipped cream and popcorn butter dust, it was hands-down delicious. My wife chose the Zabaione eggnog and reluctantly let me have a taste--it was excellent as well. From the Hemingway's Holiday Spain to the Gingerbread Man-Hatten, every drink we tried was fantastic. They were out of a couple of items, but that barely put a dent in our options. And I can't forget to mention our bartender--he was outstanding: knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. We're already looking forward to going back and ordering from their standard menu.
