Ok. So...10 minutes in, I was thinking "2 stars...if they are lucky!" But you know what...? Turns…read moreout they were lucky, so 3 stars it is! Things got a little better and the two wines that are actually under their name/label were surprisingly delicious! Anyway, we were driving back to Louisville from Nashville and the Fella filled me with joy when he said we could stop at a couple wineries on the way. Not only is it a great way to break up the monotonous drive, but it allowed me to try more Kentucky wineries (like a Pokemon, I wanna try 'em all!). Cave Valley Winery was the right distance between the first place we stopped and getting home, so we decided this would be our final boozy-stop on the way. It is easy to get to, just a small loop off the highway at the Park City exit. It was a strange first impression when we got there, though. The winery isn't so much a winery, as it is a room inside an old hotel that also operates as the site's regular bar. They were also getting ready for a Ladies' Shooting competition to be held on the weekend, there were lots of gun signs and promotional booths and tents set up and sponsor banners. We weren't initially sure that we were at the right place...maybe some of the banners were covering the winery sign? Also...guns and alcohol...what could go wrong, amirite? It was strange. When we walked in to the bar, there were two people futzing around with the register iPad and a printer. It took a bit before we were greeted, and when we were, they both mentioned that they were not the tasting host and would go get her. While she was being retrieved, we were able to look over the wine list and the woman at the bar got us started with our first sample, though she admitted she didn't really know anything about the wines. Once the usual wine tasting host, Amber, came in we were ready to lock and load. (Get it...because of the gun range...no? Ok.) You get 5 samples for $5. But be aware, they only have TWO wines under their own label. The two they have are surprisingly delicious, if I do say so myself. As for the rest of the two-page wine list, they are all wines from Wight-Meyer, which is not one of my favorite places either. So that was a little disappointing. And they were out of a few of the wines I wanted to taste. Amber was pretty alright though, with some information on tasting notes. But she was minutes from the end of her shift and asked that we close out right away. Which was fine, we needed to get on the road again anyway. Overall, I am conflicted. It was a weird experience, but their wines are decent and once Amber got to our tasting, all was well. But temper your expectations if you are a winery-hopper like me. (If I was feeling more generous, I would give another star just for all the puppers roaming about....but really, 3 stars is where its at.)

This is the only Kentucky winery to produce a sweet tea wine. And y'all - it legit tastes like sweet tea with a kick. I wasn't a fan of the blackberry but everything else was delicious. I ended up with 2 bottles to take home. The lady who did our tasting was fun and informational. We had fun looking at the pictures from the travels of the owners. We also walked down to the cellar, which was really neat. Their outdoor area was beautiful and looked very relaxing. For a winery that is newer, they've got a great start. I will definitely be back for another bottle of sweet tea.

We visit many wineries and can count on the fingers of 1 hand the few that we bought so much from as we did here. We've traveled from Tn to Pa 5 times this year, usually stopping at a winery or 2 (or 3!) each trip. We tried calling this place when we were in the Bowling Green area at convenient hours (they have tastings only by appointment). We weren't successful at finding them till this last trip, and are so glad we did! They offer almost 20 bottled wines and occasionally yet-to-be bottled samples. Diane - wife of the wine maker - regales you with the design behind each tasting - which is free, by the way. I was especially enchanted with the 2 wines made with the Moore's Diamond Grape (Silver Streak and Diamonds& Lace) - VERY good. We also picked up a bottle of Norton 2017 (my wife's few red wines she ever liked), Berea Rose (Baco Noir grape), and a couple dessert wines - Cranberry Pleasure and Red Raspberry 2020. The last 2 we were allowed to cork (picture below) and label ourselves.

If you come on a day where the food trucks or aren't available, pack a charcuterie box or picnic bag, a little Bluetooth speaker and grab a bottle of wine to enjoy outside.

I'm not sure what other winery you are going to find a warm, talkative man wearing overalls with that country twang. Love it! On to the wine: First started with his cider - good, but I'm just more into wines! Ol' Black Izzy - a blackberry blend wine - thought it was very good! Mule Shoe Muscadine - very good!
