Wine with an amazing view? Yes please!…read more The Ridge Winery & Tasting Room knows how to make an afternoon of enjoying wine. I met my family there over the weekend for a fun lunch. The Ridge allows BYOFood, so we brought a spread. And then we bought wine from them. My favorite was the Blackberry Table Wine, which was sweet but balanced. We took over a table on the large patio that overlooks the Ohio River. And man, what a view. There was slight breeze and ample room for everyone to sit, while being socially distant. We watched barges slowly make their way down the river while we chatted and drank. And then inside, The Ridge has a small but fun gift shop. My mom and aunt bought a cheeky glass and T-shirt. The Ridge also offers tastings in case you want to try several fruit wines. I've had better wine in Kentucky/Indiana, but The Ridge's wine plus view and overall atmosphere makes this a must-visit.

I loved every wine I tried and brought several bottles home (which were consumed within a week or so). The tasting room is connected to a couple's home but it isn't weird at all (b/c I thought it would be!) It was so enjoyable to taste the wine, chat with the owners (who were hilarious and in love), then buy our glasses of wine to relax on the deck for girl talk and river views. I look forward to coming back and hope to bring my husband for a relaxing afternoon!

A flight totals about a glass of a half and is a good deal at $12. I liked my Cabernet from Washington state and a follow up glass of it was $10. There was a lovely band playing, which we enjoyed from our seats in the gazebo. There's tables in the sunshine and under shade and you can bring your own chairs and blankets if you like. Really enjoyed the relaxed, friendly vibe and look forward to going back! Recommended.

Tony, the winemaker, has a pretty good variety of dry to sweet wines. It's worth the hop from downtown, get a flight or a glass of grape... sit and enjoy a very peaceful atmosphere.

Bingo is fun on the side, but the real star here is the wine. They offer wine flights, which are perfect if you want to sample a variety, and I can also highly recommend the wine slushies--so good! You can also just grab a bottle, relax, and enjoy the evening with good company. The winery doesn't serve food, but there's usually a food truck outside, so you'll never go hungry. We were there again just last weekend and were a little worried it might be cold since it's in a barn, but it was surprisingly warm and cozy with the heaters going. It was actually really comfortable. This place is fantastic year-round--winter or summer, you really can't go wrong. If you visit, make sure to try the elderberry wine. It's my absolute favorite, and I hope you love it as much as I do! Highly recommend--check it out!

They don't have the big ice cubes so you'll have to go neat, deal with pedestrian ice cubes, or BYOGI (bring your own giant ice). And they can't sell liquor by the bottle (he tried sweet talking the bartender). Lots of comfortable seating inside and out, clean bathrooms, live music. plenty of parking. Close drive. It's a win!

And normally I would prorest if you took me out and I had to cook my own meat-but this was so much fun and the hubby did all the grilling! If you haven't been here yet you gotta go. Hubby reserved us a table for their cookout. Hubby and I ordered the Vintner Dinner. It included your choice of everything the House Dinner offered (NY Strip, Salmon, Shrimp or Crab Cakes and buffet) plus a Fillet Mignon, 2 premium drinks that cover any wine, beer, or wine slushie. We ordered the Fillet Mignon and it was a beautiful cut of meat!! It just melted in your mouth. You can look online at their menu options! We were so full. The buffet was fantastic, their baked potatoes were amazing! And they had live music from a country group Hearts on Fire. We had an absolute ball. Reservations are taken between 5:00-7:30 pm. Let them know if the size of your party changes because they prepare food fresh based on the reservation size. (They also offer private dinners outside of the normal cookout hours if you want a private event) They also have food you can order from the kitchen like cheese boards, Bavarian pretzels, chips and salsa, nachos and cheese, Caprese Platter, Valley Potato Chicken Boats and more! This place is under new ownership and they said to come back again this spring to see all the new things they're doing! The staff treats you like family and you can tell they've been making people happy for a long time. We took home a bottle of Raspberry Wine and Bourbon Barrel Aged Mead!! They also have craft beer!
