I have had wine from this Winery many times and have always wanted to visit to get the "full experience". After finally having the chance to do so, I can say I was very pleased! During my visit, I was able to enjoy the Bird Dog Blues, Lakeview Peach, Red Raspberry, and Blackberry. All of these wines are delicious! My personal favorite out of the four was the Lakeview Peach. When choosing which wines to taste, I loved how the wine list was broken down into dry, semi-dry, semi-sweet, and sweet. This was super helpful. In addition to the wine, this Winery sells Tell City Pretzels, sausage, blocks of cheese, and crackers. This was an absolute perfect snack to enjoy with our wine during our visit! Overall, this is a great local winery to visit! If you find your self winery-hopping or just enjoying a day, definitely add Pepper Ridge Winery to your list!! read more

First, let me say this place is hard to find. My GPS had me about 10 miles away, and when I arrived, there was no winery. Okay, perhaps it was "user error" as County Road 200S, 200W, 200E and 200N are all different. Who knew? Anyway, use Google Maps and type in the name of the winery and your lovely GPS or smartphone will guide you here without a worry in the world. Notable highlights: the location. Tucked away and not viewable from the road, this place would be an excellent location for a wedding, family reunion, or hiding out from whomever might be looking for you. Wines: a decent mix of sweet and dry. Both my "sweet" and "dry" friends walked away with bottles from Pepper Ridge. It was also voted "best venue" for the day's winery visits, which totaled 9. A word of caution for you Indy people trekking down... this place observes Central time, which means they get to wake up an hour later than those in Eastern. read more

Ditto, Michelle H. We've always enjoyed going there in the past, but were dismayed that accompanying children were not allowed bathroom facilities. We were told, "they can go in the woods. " Needless to say, we won't be back. read more

***Not family friendly *** We've been going to Pepper's for several years & it has been a "go-to" when we entertain family/friends from out of town. We were aware that the owner had made the policy that no children are allowed in the tasting room. However, while we still love the wine & the location, we were told today that the owner's policy also applies to the restrooms as well. My nephew was not allowed to use the only restrooms on the premises, but it was ok for him to go in the woods. I respect that the owner can choose policies in their establishment. Just know if you're headed that way that it is no longer somewhere you can bring the whole family. read more
