    Tasting on the front porch.

    Very cool winery out in the country near Siler city. The tasting room is spacious and open and very comfy, and there's a ton of outside seating. You can't go wrong, sitting out on any of the porches that overlook the grapevines or farm next door. Service is great, and the wines and mead are really good. If I had a complaint, it's the fact that tastings are $12, and they come with four 1+ ounce pours that come in plastic cups. They give you a glass to pour them into, But the tasting is slightly over priced compared to most wineries in North Carolina for what you get. And that's a small complaint. Otherwise, this place is awesome. I highly recommend.

    Jazz at the vineyard. Great Sunday afternoon.

    Amazing boutique winery. If you are in the greater Raleigh/Chapel Hill area you must stop by. it's a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The facilities are always clean and bright. Great wine!!!

    I honestly and so sad that I forgot her name, she was so kind, patient and friendly!

    Not much to change here, still a great place to visit, great staff. Comfy ambiance. One suggestion is to offer some crackers or something to clear the palate in-between wine tasting.

    Great relaxing ambience to enjoy some great local wine. There's a small farm next door that sell's awesome eggs. And usually a food truck of some sort. We always try to hit it when the oysters are there!

    I really should have taken pictures, but I was too busy tasting the wines. This place is down a quiet country road and there are some beautiful views of the hills and wildlife on the drive. The house is beautiful and spacious. Really a nice place to relax and sip a glass or bottle of wine. So the wines here are complex and interesting. They have a variety of whites and reds. They have a nice rose which is semi-sweet. While I didn't care for the honey apple wine I loved the Chambourin and Valvin Muscat. The Red blend is also nice and we have to a good family friend. I have a lovely talk with the lead grape grower (I am sure there is a proper title for this). But he told us about how the grapes were selected and harvested. I really enjoyed the knowledge and the wine. It is a smaller winery so definitely had a coziness to it. They are hosting some events and recently had a farm to table dinner. I hope to be able to get out to one of there events.

    Nice little winery located in the middle of nowhere. I was planning for a little weekend escape out of the blue and this place popped up in my search. Clean, well organized, friendly. The only knock probably is how limited the choices avaliable are. I have ordered their wine tasting option and tried 4 of their 9 current offerings. Meets expectation, but slightly pricy. Considering that it's a local business, not sure if there's much room for improvement unless it expands. Solid 4 stars and I might visit again.

    4 sample wines $12/per tasting

    Very nice place to come in a lazy Sunday afternoon. Beautiful vineyard. Live music. And the wines are great! Nice selection of dry and semi sweet wines.

    My wife and I really enjoyed our first visit here. It is a beautiful small winery with a very pleasant staff. The owners were there when we went and also were very welcoming and friendly. Our waitress was very knowledgeable about the wines and guided us in our tasting selections with several questions about our preferences in wines. She did an excellent job as we thoroughly enjoyed all of our samples. The tasting are served in disposable cups due to the current situation, but still a generous pour. We purchased some crackers and an additional glass each as we quickly found some new favorites. The building is decorated very nice and the vines just outside are beautiful on the rolling hillsides. I would highly recommend stopping in for a tasting, you will be glad you did.

    FireClay Cellars is a lovely winery! We moved back to the area recently and had lived near the Northern Virginia wine trail prior so we love our wineries. The tasting room is beautiful and modern with tasteful art and plenty of space. Grounds are immaculate and they have ducks and guinea fowl running around, which are fun to watch. We enjoyed all their wines but especially liked their Reserve Red blend, we can't wait to try their Rose when available. We were excited about the different varietals they had since we aren't big on muscadine and scuppernong which seems common in this area. We can't wait to come back!

    My husband and I enjoyed the wine so much we brought a bottle home!

    If you like wine, this is definitely a winery to check out in NC. It departs from the typical NC Muscadine grape wine picture by using hybrid vines that produce much dryer and deep flavored wines. I find a lot of wine made in NC to be way too sweet, but not here. Everything is local and the tasting room really is brand new and tastefully done. You can make a day of it by visiting nearby baby goats and alpacas. Will definitely visit again.

    I'm giving Childress Vineyards, five stars today because they did a great job for both a couples…read moredate with my husband and my birthday celebration with the ladies. For the couples event, I experienced Gale who's really thoughtful. I absolutely adore her. For the birthday event we had Erin. Let's call Erin the multitasker for managing 7 wine tasting like a pro. I truly appreciate the great job and the attention to detail that these ladies offered during our Victory Wine Tasting Experience. Pro-Tip: Book reservations online.

    I visited this place as a surprise and upon arrival, it's obvious that grounds are well kept…read moreyear-round. It's a beautiful vineyard and I was super excited to explore and walk around. After being greeted in the main building, we were directed to enjoy the scenic route or walk directly towards the back of the building to enjoy the live music. There's an open space behind the main building with a small stage to enjoy live music, or if you're more a bookworm like myself you can grab a chair near the small lake. I enjoyed lunch in the Bistro (it was an earlier lunch because they were closing earlier for a private event - it's a beautiful space so I can see why) - the lunch menu offered a variety of items of if you're just interested in dessert, then you can grab something from the front and enjoy the weather. This beautiful place could easily get crowded on a weekend so I'd recommend reservations, just to ensure that you have a table without the wait. I decided to go with a wrap with grilled chicken and it was seasoned just right and was complimented with the perfect amount of fries. But the highlight of my lunch (besides the wine, lol) was the sweet tea - as a southerner, it hit the spot. A private tour was scheduled for me and that's probably where I made up my mind that I'd be back to visit this place. The tour guide was personable and she knew her stuff. Not to mention, I was able to enjoy fresh grapes from the vineyard (yum!). I fell in love with a couple of their signature wines, so I grabbed a couple of bottles from the gift shop - it's also offers a great opportunity to grab a few gifts for family and friends. I'd recommend this place for an easy Saturday or Sunday as it's great way to relax and recharge - but if you're feeling inclined to stay there's a hotel available near the vineyards (walking distance). Go check them out!
