    Loved this hidden spot! On our way back from the Jim Beam distillery and ran across this gem! Julie was our sommelier.

    We found this winery completely by chance, and just made a last minute decision to stop in and check it out. The service was awesome and they had a very friendly kitty which enjoyed our attention :) The wine was delicious and it was a fun way to kill an hour while chatting with some friendly folks. We left with a bottle of the Sauvignon Blanc and really enjoyed it!

    This winery is now added to my Kentucky list of wineries that I will frequently visit on our travels through this area. I just had the best tasting. The lady that poured for me was so friendly and informative. She made my wine tasting experience truly lovely. You get 6 tastings for $10 so I tried the 5 dry red wines and the semi sweet aged in a Four Roses bourbon barrel. The semi sweet was too sweet for my taste but I bought a bottle to share with my sweet loving wine friends. I really liked all the dry red wines here. My favorite was the Cabernet Sauvignon so I purchased that along with the dessert chocolate infused wine that I will try later. There are many wineries to choose from for wine lovers. This one is at the top of my list and I highly recommend it.

    We dropped in for a quick tasting. Lots of fruit forward wine like most wineries in the Midwest. Make sure you try their port, it was a little fruity as well but had a nice tawny flavor. One little tip if you check in on Yelp you get a 10% off coupon on your purchase, well at least I got one ;)

    I am not a wine drinker so I was out of my element when I was at Forest Edge Winery. I did not have a bad experience but nothing really stood out to me. A friend and I decided to have a day out at the last minute and wine hopping unintentionally became the main thing we did. It is located by The Jim Beam Distillery so it is not hard to miss. The tasting were around $5 dollars for 6 wines. None of the wines really stuck out to me where I had to buy a bottle. A small perk was they gave you Goldfish while sampling the wine. It is a nice location and I did enjoy my time here but I probably would try other wineries before making the drive back.

    Very impressed with the winery! Polite and Allison was extremely knowledgeable about the different wines. I would highly Forest Edge Winery!

    It's actually their 10 year anniversary! They did their tasting at the counter. My favorite was the spicy Thai chili wine! I've never had anything like it before!

    On Derby Day, a sizeable group of us from Louisville did a Run for the Rose before the big race. We got all dolled up in dresses & fascinators to visit two wineries close by. We started at Forest Edge. I love Bernheim Forest and my family regularly hikes there, so I'd seen signs for this quaint spot down the road. I was excited to stop in and try their products. The space is cute with a cottage in the forest vibe. There were about 14 or 16 of us and we all received great service from n what I witnessed. We bellied up to the large tasting bar to sample the wines but the tasting room is spacious. You get six, small tastes (looked like 1 oz) for $6. After tasting, many of us got glasses of our favorite wine or wine slushy. I thoroughly enjoyed our stop here and will drop in again with friends or family next time I'm in Clermont!

    What a cute, charming little winery just South of Louisville. A friend and I were winery-hopping and this was the next closest one to where we were. It's right off the highway, so nothing you have to go too deep in the sticks to reach. It's also really cute! On the inside and outside it looks like a little house. I believe it was $5 for a 6 wine tasting, if I remember correctly. The staff were friendly and the wines were all great. They have a really nice variety, from dry to sweet. While they did have plenty of tables to enjoy wine at, my one fuss is that you have to stand at the bar for the tasting - there are no stools. Because of this I felt like I wasn't able to relax as much with it and we drank them each rather quickly. They did give us Goldfish crackers to snack on though, between each wine. This place seems like a nice hangout if you decide to buy a glass or bottle. They have a few different rooms you can walk through, checker boards and a lot of neat stuff to look at. They also have a really cute playroom for kids if you bring some with you. This is another great one that is worth a shot!

    This is a really nice winery that is located in Claremont/Shepherdsville right across the street from Bernheim Forest. And I'm not a big wine guy to be honest you know I drink more beer or bourbon or something like that my wife really enjoys wine and we have gone here a few times. Will go up and hike at Bernheim and then go across the street and you know maybe have a wine with some treats or snacks or something and that's really nice we've met friends up here before and it is a cool little place to hang out and just relax and enjoy Scott great scenery and good flavored wine

    This Winery is just off I-65 and near Jim Beam Distillery. You can see the sign just off the road so it isn't very hard to find and parking lot is kinda small. Of course, being a Tuesday the place wasn't very busy. The interior is very clean and it looks and feels like a home. I got rather quick service and was told I could get 6 tastings for $5. So that's what I went with. I had a few favorites but I particularly liked the one that tasted like Strawberry preserve. Before leaving I did get a program of other wineries in Kentucky after asking a couple from Cincinnati what good wineries were up there after finding out they were from Cinci. I only got to keep the glass after paying close to $5 for it, that's ok. I wish I would have caught the guys name that hosted the tasting. He was a great host. They also have Wine slushees in Sangria and Peach Bellini.

    My sisters and nieces love going here together for their tasty wines and especially for their "Wine Down Sundays"! They have live music in the Barrel Room and you can bring your own snacks. We always have a good time filled with good wine, snacks, music, and lots of laughs! I like the dry wines, and my favorite is the Chardonnay. I did try the Riesling, which is a semi-sweet, and it was good too. If you like sweet wines, then my sister said that their Moscato is one of the best. They have tastings at the bar as well and rooms that you can rent for events. Great place!

    Delicious wines. My husband and I needed a bourbon break, so we decided to get some delicious wine. I believe a tasting of 6 wines is $5. Friendly staff. I highly recommend coming here. They are located about 3 minutes from Jim Beam Distillery.

    The hubby and I went for a tasting and didn't leave empty handed. We will for sure be back and will bring friends. One of the best military discounts as a bonus.

She was the only one there and had a few guests to help and she said she was having a bad day but you'd never know. She made my bf and I feel more than welcome and took care of us. We got a small charcuterie with nuts, meats and cheeses and added olives. The charcuterie was not what I was expecting from a winery. It was more of an adult lunchable than charcuterie. The cheese was like that precut Cracker Barrel cheese found in the store. I would have like to have had some freshly grated parmesan or mozzarella. Something that would pair well with the wines. I'm not a fan of Swiss. Love Colby jack and cheddar but those don't really go with the wines I had. I got a flight of white wines that are numbered in my 2nd picture. They were all pretty good but 1 & 4 were my favorites. I was able to taste a new wine slush they're offering. I chose the red wine slush over the white moscato one. I fell in love with it. I tried to get one to go but was unable to due to them not having approved to go containers for them My boyfriend got a flight of premium bourbon which he enjoyed. There are lots of cosy places inside and out to sit and sip your favorite drink. We did leave with a bottle of the # 4 wine I liked and garlic sausage though. I will definitely return for a slush!!
