After purchasing two tastings and a bottle of wine for consumption on property, we paid our tab. Then we were approached and told that we needed to pay again, even though we could both show them that the transactions had gone through on our banking statements. They proceeded to argue with us for almost 30 minutes, prolonging our time there, and embarrassing us in front of all of the rest of the customers. We knew we had paid. At the end of 45 minutes of arguing while we were ready to go, they finally just took our phone number and email address and told us they would reach out if it did not go through. We had already offered that option from the beginning. I really wish we could visit again because I loved the wine, however, with this treatment and embarrassment we won't be back.

A bonus: it sits right on the Vineyard Trail to Carter Falls- a section of the Mountain to Sea Trail. It's a beautiful place to spend an afternoon. Open on Mondays!

I guess Elkin Creek is on the muddy side, but still quaint and nice to look at as well. Now the wine, I was not blown away unfortunately and each, had a way of making me think I was tasting some type of Kombucha due to the spices used in them an a lingering flavor. I couldn't put my finger on it, but it was that way through all of the six wines we tasted.

Pizza that we ordered was delicious, with brie and bacon and the perfect thinness. It was quite large as well for $21 and we're still thinking about that pizza. But the wines, oh no, I never went to a winery where the wines tasted like they had a vinegar aftertaste. The only one we could stomach was the "soft white". We ordered a bottle of it to have with the Pizza and then walked around the premises to enjoy the creek. We're sad in our hearts that the wine just wasn't our taste, but if you want great wood fire pizza and a beautiful location, definitely come here.

The best part was that the winery was dog friendly for both inside & outside - our two puppies were able to wander around as they please! We were blown away by the tasting which allowed us to sample 9 different wines. We loved the wines so much that we ended up buying 5 bottles to take home. Mandy also provided snack pairings with some of the wines - we had some locally made dark chocolate as well as siracha pimento cheese. The wine tasting room was also beautiful and quite spacious. There were adorable merchandise for sale including antiques, purses, jewelry, personalized towels. There's also a lovely outdoor area and seats on their porch for warmer days.

We walked in and were immediately greeted by the friendliest winesta, Mandy, who has been there for over 4 years. She made us feel immediately comfortable and welcomed. She helped us get settled at a table good for our pup, and told us about the tastings. They have an incredible deal - 8 tastings for 15 with a take home glass or 12 without the take home glass; however, there were 2 bonus tastings, also a pairing with dark chocolate and a pairing with cheese (also available for purchase, which we did). Mandy's knowledge and enthusiasm were unmatched and we truly had the best time. We have done a lot of wine tastings over our time together and this was one of the very best we have ever done while the wines were quite good, it was Mandy who really made it special. We purchased two bottles of wines, a tub of the cheese, that we sampled, crackers, and beer nuts to go. Although we are only in Elkin for a short period of time, we are considering coming back one more time during a short visit! If we don't make it back this trip, it will be on our must do for our next trip!
