On a recent road trip we saw a sign for Oz Winery and knew we're going to have our first detour…read more You can't miss this on the road into town. We were warmly welcomed and told of the options. We did one of each tasting so we could ensure we tried everything! Our host was engaging and chatted with us the whole time. We left with a few bottles as well. Liked how each bottle had a theme of Oz to it as well as the decor itself. If you find yourself off Hwy 70 and like wine this is a cute detour to find!

I've said it once and I will say it again; I am not a wine drinker. I rarely drink it but when…read morethere is a themed winery based of a classic movie, I have to check it out. My friend and I decided to do a tasting and were able to try 5-6 different types of wine. A lot of wines were in the dryer side. The bottles are also themed after the Wizard of Oz so it makes a perfect souvenir. I ended up buying 2 bottles as gifts. My one complaint is how expensive the bottles are. Both bottles that I purchased were around $25 dollars each which is more than what I'm used to. I did enjoy the winery overall and it's a perfect stop while visiting Wamego

Is it the best I have ever had nope but you can see the potential as they continue to improve. The service was on point, they have some great local art and goods that are pretty amazing. So if you get a chance to drive by and sit a relax, it maybe too hot outside but they have some very comfortable indoor seating. Good times with decent wine.

I was one of 3 people there at the time (they had just opened) and all of us were trying a tasting: 6 (1/2 oz) pours for $6. I stuck mostly to the sweet wines which weren't bad but apparently not what I wanted that day because having overheard one of the others say the Cherry Medley actually tasted like tart pie I gave it a try and really enjoyed it. So much so that I got a bottle to take home. Decided to make the most of my trip and ordered a charcuterie board with a glass wine for lunch. *They have gluten free crackers for the charcuterie too*

A special shoutout to the front desk staff, who were incredibly kind and welcoming from the moment I walked in. Their friendliness set the tone for a truly enjoyable visit. If you're in the area, the Oz Museum is absolutely worth the stop. A charming, well‑kept, and memorable place.

Service was great. The people there took their time to explain the different wine and ciders. And the food choices were awesome.

The real reason for my 3 star rating is that they have so many wines and meads but you can only taste 5. Granted it's 5 for free but I think they need a pay options too for everyone. Especially for those of us just passing through and don't live in the area. The hostess (person who poured) seemed like she did t want to be there and didn't tell me anything about the wines. Overall the wines I did taste were good o wish I could had tasted more.

A woman with her child came out but did not offer a tasting or any other help. She told her child to pick up the toys after I almost tripped on one, and the child ignored her. I finally asked if we could taste the semi-dry elderberry because we were not able to find it locally. She poured one sample. We had to share the sample. No other tastings were offered. We asked for a case of the wine which she brought out. We asked where they shipped the semi-dry wine in the KC area. She mentioned a few places where they shipped wine, but had no idea where they shipped semi-dry, and did not offer to find out and get back with us. When paying, the screen asked for a tip of over $20. For what? Needless to say, I skipped the tip screen. Five stars for the wine, zero stars for the winery.

Going inside the tasting room with a large…read moregroup of folks at the Cresent Moon Winery 246th St location, there was absolutely no water on the tables for customers to drink or even water to rinse out glasses when trying out different wines. Folks had to get up and go out into their store and to get a plastic cup of water from lobby area. How stupid and unprofessional. Been to many wineries and tasting rooms and never experienced lack of professional preparation of no real customer service. They just lined us up to collect payment before starting. Why wasn't water on the tables for customers to drink and (or) rinse glasses instead of pouring tasting right after another was in the glass in not a true tasting with resident from the prior wine???? On the way out, leaving the event, the owner never said good-bye or thank you for coming, absolutely nothing said by owner to us a customer as we heading for the door to leave. All of the wines were nasty, and tasted and smelled like a chemical, lighter fluid is what we at my table of folks described these wines as tasting like. No etiquette at all for a businessperson to have no personality at all. He is just making a bad wine and collecting money. Been to a million wineries that have water on the table for guest. Owner just not personable at all. I would never go again or tell anyone to visit this winery. Lawrence has a couple other good wineries I have experienced in our area. Aweful, don't waste your time trying this place if you are a true wine person.

And if you like semi-sweet white wines, include Seyval Blanc, my all-time favorite, on your tasting menu. Pair it with cheese, crackers, and fruit for a delightful, starlit Spring or summer evening on your deck or patio.

It makes for a fabulous, fun, and tasty day trip!

Lots of seating options: on the lawn, under a covered patio and inside. The bar area was huge and had whiskey, non alcoholic options and of course wine- theirs and international ones. Food menu had some great options. We bought a bottle of German wine (we didn't like any of their wines) and ordered the charcuterie board and the apple/sausage flatbread. The flatbread was delicious! The bread was soft and yet a bit crispy on the edges and the toppings were plentiful. The charcuterie board had plenty of cheeses, cold cuts, flatbread slices, vegetable salad (?) and dipping sauces. I was disappointed there were no olives though. We sat on the covered patio that had overhead heat lamps which helped to keep us warm. I loved the vibe there! All the servers were so friendly and everything was clean and well kept.

The wines are still as delicious as I remembered, the music was very good, and we always enjoy spending time in nearby Weston for a little shopping. It was fun to see how much the property has changed over the years. The adorable elementary school has been somewhat modernized, and the tasting room now has a darker, moodier atmosphere with the addition of the Whiskey Wall, replacing the natural lighting and former gift shop area. Prices have certainly gone up, but I suppose that's a sign of the times - everything costs more these days! Our tasting server, Alyssa, was very pleasant and helpful. The checkout server forgot to give us our pre-paid Eminence $29.99!! Glad we were paying attention. That could have been a big disappointment. We thoroughly enjoyed our brief visit and the wonderful outdoor experience, even with the rain. Good food, drinks, music, and even better conversation. Thank you, Dave and Ginah, for another enjoyable visit!
