To me, this place has so much potential, but it fell a little short of expectations…read more We came as a group of 8. Per their signage and staff reports, we are to order at the bar. (This was helpful as we could do separate checks). They offer wine and cocktails. However, on my visit, their soda gun was broken, so my friends who did not drink alcohol had limited drink options. Unfortunately, their kitchen got slammed and struggled to keep up. My group's food came out very spread out. Salads were decent. My one friend enjoyed their tacos. However, my last friend to order food ordered a grilled cheese, and it came out cold. I would come for the wine again, but would only order food if it didn't appear crowded. Inside and outside were pretty. The place was super clean.

There is a large indoor area and a huge back patio partly covered/partly uncovered overlooking a small pond that provides a nice lively but pretty setting in which to enjoy your wine. The parking lot is right out front. They allow you to bring in food and do permit dogs on-leash. When we entered, we saw lots of rather typical wine merchandise to buy. We were hoping to have wine flights outside on the patio, but they only do flights inside at the walk-up bar. Instead, we had a couple of small tastes and picked a bottle of wine to bring out back on the patio. There was a live band performing which was nice. Lots of seating and an energetic vibe. We enjoyed our wine as well. You have the option to either keep your wine glasses as a souvenir or return them to get your deposit back.

(There was a baby shower in progress.) We were still able to find a table. There are outdoor seating options but it was too cold. The service was quick and efficient. Their wine flights are organized in a cute carrier, and it was only $10 for a flight. You do have to check your empty flight back in to get your deposit back. It was not the best wine on the trail, in my opinion. There was some cute wine merchandise, similar to what is sold at other wineries. The women's bathroom was spacious and clean. I would return, especially on a warm day when the patio is open.

We both got a glass of pink Catawba - $5 a glass and relaxed outside, sitting in the woods. Bought 3 bottles of wine to take home. Friendly people, beautiful setting, excellent wines.

However, if in summer, I hope they have air on next time.

The servers were friendly and knowledgeable. You may want to bring your growler to take cider home - they were sold out of cans on our visit.
