Buckley Vineyards - Amber - Wineries Near Me - Ellijay, Georgia

The back porch and outdoor area in general are incredible! They had a turf area for our kids to run around and play. The peach wine slushy was delicious along with their Chardonnay. We spent several hours here with our large group and everyone left tired and happy. The live music was a great as well. They offer an alcohol free slushy, which all of the kids enjoyed. Highly recommend checking out this vineyard, with or without your family! read more

Amazing tasting experience at Buckley Vineyards! Service was warm, friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. It was a cold day so we opted to sit inside next to a large fireplace. We enjoyed all the wines we tasted, but particularly enjoyed their Malbec. We would have loved onsite foods, but there was a cheese case from which we chose a few snacks and crackers. Highly recommend! Really nice place to spend a chilly afternoon. Can't wait to come back in the summer! read more

We've been here multiple times over the years and always enjoyed it. The wines are awesome. I try bottles of them as I visit. All are great. The folks are wonderful and friendly. The place is super with different areas to sit and enjoy company and great wine. read more

Buckley Vineyards is a must visit if you are in the Georgia Mountains. It is a vineyard that can not be missed. It is tied as my top two vineyards on this visit in the mountains. Ok, you are in the mountains the possibility of any road in the mountains is it can be a bit bumpy. If your vehicle is low to the ground you will be ok. But just a little heads up! Buckley is open seven days a week. They open at twelve o'clock. The closing time varies, see their website for details. They also have live music on some days too. I love the truck parked right outside. It is beautiful. Yes, a wine is named after it! The outdoor seating area is covered. It is large, with plenty of tables and chairs. And it has a lovely view. The tasting room inside is beautiful. It has exposed ceilings, lovely light fixtures, leather chairs, and exposed brick. This tasting room felt nuanced and inviting. So many tasting rooms put a bar and a lot of tables and chairs in with out giving any thought to the feel of the room. It was clear to me that someone was thoughtful about this room. Let's talk wine. The service was fantastic. This was the only vineyard we went to that still does a traditional tasting. And by that I mean pouring your glass one at a time, not you choosing everything at once. I love a traditional tasting. One where I can talk to the person behind the bar. We can ask about the wine. So I can figure out what I would like and also learn more about the vineyard itself too. I decided on the premium tasting. This is five of their wines and one reserve wine for sixteen dollars. The pours were good, better than at other vineyards yet again. And the the bartender made sure to check on us, ask my thoughts, likes, etc. We also were given some crackers to help cleanse our palette in between if we would like. I bought a bottle of the Amber wine to take home with me. I loved the taste and the color! read more

Best service and the friendliest winery around ! I can't wait to go back! Great service and excellent staff !!

My friend and I popped into Buckley for a tasting on Wednesday and enjoyed sampling their wines and slushies as we soaked up the sun and conversation on the adarandak chairs. The grounds are incredibly well maintained and the location is new and beautiful. Bathrooms are located inside as well as outside near an even larger seating area which made them very assessable. The wines were yummy, and had so much character being labeled and named after family, loved ones, and pets. They do their tastings based on a chip system which I really loved. My friend and I did a regular tasting and then a premium tasting and were able to taste everything we wanted to. We will definitely be back again to enjoy their wine!! read more

Great music venue. Good wine for north Georgia. They are very proud of it based on the price. No dogs which is unfortunate. Customer service is missing compared to other vineyards but still worth a visit. read more

First visit on a weekend. They had some live music which complement at the ambience. The place itself is comfortable and laid-back. However, the wine was definitely lacking in all areas and the samples we had tried were just not good IMO. read more

My first review of 2022 goes to Buckley Vineyards! Tucked away down a dirt road it over looks the Blue Ridge mountains. What a delightful way to spend a Wednesday afternoon. A cool but sunny North Georgia day.The staff was amazing. They told us about the wines they make, how they make them and all about their family history as it relates to the winery. Choosing 6 wines for your flight gives you a good range of what they have to offer and they were all delightful. After working my way through the flight, I settled on a nice red. Robust and so much flavor. Watching the gorgeous stone fireplace burning on one side and the BlueRidge Mountains on the other side made for a wonderful afternoon to unwind after the hustle and bustle of the holidays. I'll definitely be back in the spring and summer to check out the live music and food trucks. read more

My fiancé and I had an amazing time at Buckley Vineyards this weekend! Not only was the wine delicious, but the company and entertainment was on point. We met Lloyd who is one of the owners and he was also singing and playing guitar. He was so nice and we had a great chat with him. He genuinely walked around and chatted with everyone there and made everyone feel welcome. We got some food from the food truck that was there, but in a pinch they also have food available to buy inside including little meat and cheese snacks and non alcoholic beverages. They have a good selection of wine plus they have several craft beer options! The wine slushies were amazing! I highly suggest getting it with a wine floater. I mixed the two flavors and it was delicious. read more

Date of visit: 3.19.22 Date of review: 3.25.22 We did an Ellijay wine tour last weekend, and this was the liveliest vineyard by far. It was beautiful with numerous sitting areas and a very young and fun feel to it. I'm not a huge fan of local wine, but it's wet and it's fun activity to do with friends. This place was the busiest for a reason, and it has a very fun menu. Here's the hubs with our favorite - a dry apple wine inspired by the owner's grandma (at least that's the story I heard during a flurry of wine consumption). This place is very hip and vibrant, and it's worth the trip. read more

I have been to a lot of wineries throughout Northern Georgia and this one just made it to one of my top 3 list. We went on a Wednesday around 4pm and really enjoyed our time and the wines. The place opened up just over a year ago and they really made the place to have a great atmosphere. We were told they have live music and food trucks Fri-Sun, so we will definitely be back to experience that. While we were there we got 2 flights, a regular and a premium, which is a few bucks more and includes their more expensive wines. After trying all the wines I was truly impressed. I don't think I have liked so many wines at one place. We ended up getting 2 bottles to go, the Sassy Georgia (white wine Chadonnay) and the Turkey Creek (red wine mix blend). We also tried their wine slushy... you have to try the wine slushy! They are so good and are great on a hot summers day. All in all we loved this place and will be coming back soon! read more

At the end of a dirt country road is this modern winery ready to serve your their best offerings. I've visited Buckley several times over the past six months abs have watched this small tasting room grow into a hopping spot. The family owned winery has created a great tasting room with plenty of space to spread out, a bar area with plenty of seating and a gorgeous patio heated by their huge fireplace. The scenery is amazing including the cutest vintage truck that is the photo opp of the day. Live music is welcome but can be too loud at times. Best part is outside food is welcome but you *must* try the food served by the local food truck guy. He is amazing and has several food trucks around Elijay and Talking Rock. read more

Great time beautiful setting liked the whites the best. Friends love the muscadine wines

We came for the Zinfandel but there is so much more. When we pulled up, we noticed the food truck was German food. Off to an interesting/good start. We loved the Hungarian oak Zin but the Meritage, bourbon barrel and the apple wine were great as well. OK, I know, I know I just said apple wine was worthwhile. I can't believe I said that either but it is and its not what you expect. It is not a sugar bomb. Just try it. There wasn't any music going on while we were there but both the outdoor and indoor stages have hosted some pretty well known artists. There is also a vineyard cabin (2 br) that is available to rent. The staff are super friendly and it turns out I was sitting next to the owner at the tasting bar. What a fabulous time. read more

The wine was great, with a variety of good options. Nice to pick up a good beer or two while the wife enjoyed hers. She even snagged an extra glass of the sparkling white. The area is beautiful and spacious. Really a nice spot to stop in read more

We were staying @ the on-site cabin & had a chance to visit Sat & Sun. Great wine, great people! We've visited the majority of the vineyards in the area & Buckley is a stand out. They have sweeter & drier wines. I'm not a huge fan of sweet & their Corrine apple wine is great on on hot day. For reds we loved the Sangiovese & The Frank Cab Sauvignon. Looking forward to another visit! read more

What an amazing vineyard! The wine was fantastic and I highly recommend a tasting to sample them all. There are plenty of places to sit and relax- including fireplaces. The staff was beyond friendly and knowledgeable. This was our favorite vineyard of the trip and cannot wait to go back! read more
