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.

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!

First time visiting Buckley Vineyards and i absolutely loved it. Rick at the wine bar was such a pleasure and very helpful. There was live music and a food truck outside with good choices to pair your wine.

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!!

Outdoor seating

Great place. Great views. Great wines. And beers. Great music. Friendly service. You can't beat it.

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.

Today was first visit to a Buckley and thoroughly enjoyed it. The ambience, the staff and wine made for a great rainy day. They had live music today and a food truck. For sure one of my favorite wineries.

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.

A pleasant wine find in N Georgia. Ample seating both inside and outside. Great area for a wedding reception. Great variety of wines to try. Live music. "Frank" and "Fireside" red top Zinfandel were our favorites. Friendly service. Definitely recommend and might even stop back by before we leave!

Open everyday (perfect for people like me that are visiting in the middle of the week for a random event and wants something to do) or the perfect date night.. Service was perfect: friendly and knowledgeable. Order at the counter and then find your seat. PLENTY of options for seating depending on your mood AND, if they have the space open or not. Food options are limited during the week but during the weekend, they have a full menu. I had a charcuterie board that was hardy and full of options. I also had a red wine flight that was perfect for the cold evening. Then there was the sunset. Oh the sunset.. ugh just perfect with the French jazzy music and pure tranquil atmosphere. I absolutely loved this place. I was told they have live music during the weekend and have most of the areas open as well but since it was Tuesday, it was limited. They also have a private event space. I only wish I lived near by, this would be a regular spot for me!

The situation felt mismanaged and could have been resolved with clearer communication and better verification before refusing service. Unfortunately, it impacted the overall guest experience enough that we chose to leave. Hoping this constructive feedback helps improve consistency and service moving forward.

We played Uno with our kids for a bit and then they tossed a baseball down in the grass below. It was a relaxing, tech free day with no complaints for anyone. Loved it. It is clearly a go-to spot for locals, as there were many people conducting remote work from the space as well. I think it's telling that people feel "at home" here. Regarding the wine, we had great recommendations from the owner and liked all that we sampled. My husband's favorite was the Chardonnay and mine the house Riesling, which we purchased a bottle of to bring home.

It was super busy inside for a Wednesday afternoon (given it was that awkward week between Christmas and New Years that no one knows what is going on during LOL) and since we had the pup, we decided to sit outside. The view was GORGEOUS outside, and during golden hour/sunset, it was a beautiful way to end the year. If this is your first visit, I definitely recommend trying different wines with their tasting menu - I like dry reds so I opted for the Paint the Town Red - fruit forward dry reds. They also have many other tasting menu options and a long wine menu to choose from. Can't wait for my next North Georgia trip to stop in for more red vino!

They have a fairly large variety of wines ranging from very sweet muscadines to dry oaky Merlots. Something for everyone. The added bonus is that we were allowed to bring food because they are limited in their offerings. We were able to bring the wedding cake supplied by Alpines bakery in Woodstock. Check for yourself it's. Beautiful view of the valley and a great conversational piece with the house situated across the way. We are also entertained by live music of some country and rock. Over all a good day to wine!

We took our flights outside to the patio and enjoyed the butterflies and breeze as we guessed what flavors were in each wine. My husband loved the winter spice, Georgia on my mind, and the bulldog red! We ended up buying multiple bottles to take home with us.

We all did flights of wine tastings and stayed at the bar. Super fun time and the pours were generous. It wasn't busy at all and they had live music upstairs. My favorites were the whites, as those are the grapes they grow on the property. The Vidal Blanc was delicious, wasn't too sweet or dry. I ended up buying a bottle and a Merlot off their library selection. Would definitely be back!
