I also have a very large covered area as well as a fully enclosed room which came in handy today because the mountains are finally getting some rain after about 7 weeks of drought.

The cost was $59/person for a group of 4+ (this does not include any tastings or food). We ended up selecting Trip F: Elkin Creek Vineyard, Slightly Askew, Raffaldini Vineyards and Menarick Vineyards. Our driver, Johnthan, picked us up promptly at 10:30 to get us to our first tasting of the day. He was with us all day taking us to each of the wineries and was very accommodating. I definitely recommend this company. #JohnathanOut

They also offer some quick snacks like charcuterie boxes, chips, etc. and have two food trucks on property.

We also had flights so we tried all of their white wines and and all of their sangrias! The fireplace is roaring which made the 20° weather even more fantastic!!

In short order, they have learned our likes and dislikes and never to fail to guide us to old and new favorites. Weekly tastings open you up to new horizons and provide a chance to taste some seriously great wines without having to spring for a bottle that is above your average spend. Then again, Graddie and Caleb also have a way to seek and find great values. A bonus is that they offer food delivered from Table 31 next door, which is always excellent and tasty. The deviled eggs, Korean Cauliflower, French Dip and French Fries (crispy until the last bite) are always good as is the rest of their menu. I've had almost everything on the menu and have never been disappointed -- oh, I forgot to mention the Nashville Hot Chicken... If you haven't been to this cozy, intimate shop with a large patio area, you owe yours a treat. Cheers!
