Our Location
We are open year-round and welcome you to our
Wine Country in Horse Country!
Our Location
Our stone faced Tasting Room gift shop was once a farm tool shed. Nestled amongst birches and flower beds, the gift shop offers tastings and a picnic garden area with a tiered deck overlooking the vineyards and miniature golf putting green. Enjoy a Kodak moment with our horse sculpture “Vegetariat” located in the tasting room garden area or put a few golf balls on the putting green.
Self-Guided Tour
You can spend as much or as little time as you would like on the self-guided tour of our property. Pick up a map at the gift shop and explore our 38 acres and examine up-close several different grape varieties used in our wines and the different vineyard trellis techniques. Bring a picnic and stop for awhile to enjoy Mother Nature and take in the views of the surrounding horse farms. You may tour the grounds at your leisure during our normal Tasting Room business hours.
Along the way, you’ll have the opportunity to take in breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside and discover hidden gems, such as our charming picnic area and outdoor seating areas. Purchase some snacks or a bottle of our award-winning wine from our tasting room to enjoy while taking in the scenery.
Our self-guided tours are a great way to discover the beauty of our vineyard and winery at your own pace. Come visit us and experience the natural beauty and charm of our estate, as well as the exceptional quality of our wines.
Guided Tour
The Guided Tour highlights our renovated tobacco barn winery that showcases our wine production facility (during harvest time, this area may be off-limits), our flower gardens, the vineyards and finishes in our quaint stone tasting room or distillery where you can sample the fruits of our efforts with an optional wine tasting ranging from $8 and $15 per person. Tours can be scheduled by choosing the Book A Tour/Tasting button at the top of this page.
In addition to our standard tours, we also offer private tours and tastings for groups and special events. Whether you’re planning a corporate event, a wedding, or a family reunion, our vineyard and winery tours are a memorable way to celebrate.
Whether you’re a wine enthusiast or a curious traveler, our vineyard and winery tours offer an unforgettable experience. Come visit us and discover the beauty of our vineyard, the quality of our wines, and the warmth of our hospitality.
