After enjoying our wine we went on a little walk to see the llamas. There were also mini horses and a donkey. Lots of chickens too. There was a food truck but I ended up getting some snacks from in the bar area instead. Next time I'll bring a charcuterie board because that would have been so perfect!

It was my first time here, so I…read moredidn't realize that people bring their own snacks and charcuterie boards, next time I will be prepared. They have a food truck, so you can still order something. They also give you a glass to keep when wine tasting! In addition to a great view, you can walk the farm and pet the llamas. Such an amazing experience, I'll definitely be back!!

This wine is dry and spicy. It's perfect as is and makes an excellent mulled wine. I purchased their discounted gift bag of the chambourcin with mulling spices. 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon: good, strong, oaky cab sav 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve: cab sav with a whiskey finish - I also bought a bottle of this 2017 Olde Yattken: definitely clean and refreshing Mulled wine made with Chambourcin: delicious and relaxing They have multiple indoor and outdoor seating areas. We tasted the wines inside at the bar. It was nearly empty when we arrived on a Saturday and started to fill up as we finished. There seemed to be one employee working the indoor and outdoor areas. Even though she was busy, she did not rush us and greeted everyone in a friendly, relaxed way. We recommend this winery to others and would visit here again!

Unfortunately, the wine has not held up as well as I would've hoped throughout the years. This visit we chose to do flights of the drier reds, and sadly, nothing was really that recognizable. Most of the wines had a strange acidity that flashed more copper on the pallet than bright or deep red. Will definitely be back due to my previous affinity for their stuff, but I definitely hope for a different result.

They offer a variety of beer and wines. They have a good choice in food entrees and appetizers. I got the pretzel bites and deviled eggs. Both were phenomenal.

They too were good! Staff was super kind and brought everything to our table. She also made sure our beers were full. Megan Doss was singing at this venue while we were there which made for a great evening!

Living is Lewisville we have kept an eye on this property since they closed in late 2022. We had…read morenever visited prior to their closure but were happy to begin seeing posts on Facebook that there was new ownership and a slightly different focus. After doing a bit of online research, we learned the former owners sold the property across the street to Incendiary Brewery, which ultimately opened their second location in 2022. This location has a long history dating back to the early 1970s, when it was the first winery in the state to grow and produce European grape varietals, such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. Westbend Winery made its mark in North Carolina as a pioneer in the wine industry that now includes over 130 wineries and continues to grow. The original Hauser House was built in 1850, renovated in 2016 and is where the current Westbend restaurant is located. Gone are the winery days, the focus is on the restaurant, bar and music venue space. Last weekend was the beginning of their soft opening, so we had to stop in. We arrived shortly after 4pm, we were happy to see there was a collection of cars in the parking lot area. We loved the look and feel of the property from a distance but were even more impressed with it as we began looking around. The building itself looks very cool and at least somewhat original. There is also a large covered outdoor space that could easily accommodate large groups of people. There were also several picnic tables arranged in the grass if you prefer. We decided to enter the restaurant area which is now called Graze Grill. We were immediately greeted by a young man who told us we could sit anywhere. We were looking for an outdoor space on the back deck that would allow us to sit in the shade while listening to the music. We were able to grab the last table and we were brought menus and our drink orders were taken. The menu itself was nice, it offered a selection of appetizers, entrees, salads, and desserts. From flatbread pizza and buffalo chicken wraps to cheeseburgers and loaded cheese fries. There are also kid-friendly food options as well. My wife chose the WB House Salad and added grilled chicken and I decided on a flatbread pizza which I was able to choose the various toppings. The music was also entertaining and the space was very relaxing and comfortable. We were checked on throughout our visit and everyone we encountered was friendly and helpful. We also noticed their cool Westbend shirts, which my wife especially liked because they include "Lewisville, NC". The same young man offered to bring a shirt to the table for my wife to look at. She was happy with the texture and quality and decided she had to have one. He also told us they have additional swag ordered. We were really impressed with our first experience here and can't wait to come back as well as bring friends and family here when we have visitors. A great addition to the Lewisville area and Westbend absolutely compliments the other wineries and brewery in the area. We learned they are currently finalizing their operating hours and are currently open on Saturday's and Sunday's. However, they plan to be open from Thursday through Sundays. Their grand opening is scheduled for Labor Day weekend. Wishing the new owners all of the very best!

It started off with visiting Rayson Winery & Vineyards with Bistro Europa Restaurant in Mocksville, NC. I was greeted and welcomed with a tasting with Coleman. This young lady is so knowledgeable and professional in every aspect when it comes to wine! She explained how it got started, how they cultivated the grapes and overcoming obstacles that was preventing the wine production etc. This vineyard has so much history that any wine lover would love to hear, and Coleman is definitely that someone who could share the story. The wines I sampled all had unique tastes. One of my favorite was Sweet Vermouth Blanc. This is a dessert white wine that has varietals of Sauvignon Blanc Chardonnay. The ambiance at this location was elegant and filled with sophistication. The customer service from everyone was great. The manager who made all this possible was Liz, who is the manager of Digital and Social for JOLO Brands. She allowed me to have one of the most exceptional experiences ever!
