    Beautiful little spot overlooking the mountains. My friends and I stopped by here after climbing. It is the perfect place for a glass of wine before heading home. Free samples or flight options too and friendly service, generous pours too. I would definitely return!

    Stony Mtn has excellent regional sweet and fruit wines. There is a spectacular view overlooking Lake Tillery and the Uwharrie Mtns. The service and upbeat staff have always been exceptional the 10 or so times I've visited. What beautiful Fall day!! Perfect for a Stony Mtn Viognier.

    Such a great time at Stony Mountain vineyard with Kathy, definitely got to come back again

    Very pretty scenery and good wines! Had the Pinot Grigio and it's one of my favorites. Loved coming out to see the beautiful area.

    My friends and I had a good visit here. Inside the tasting room feel cozy and comfy. The patio overlooked a million dollar view of the mountain and river. The service was friendly. As far as wine flights and option, it is limited. They don't grow their own grapes. I did not notice vintage wines in the menu. Instead they have decent sweet wines such as the Blackberry and Hummingbird wines. Overall, this is a decent boutique vineyard in the area with a gorgeous view.

    My girlfriend and I have been here twice and have very mixed feels about this place. The family run vineyard is topped by cute country-style building with a great view of the surrounding mountains, the valley, and small vineyard. The large balconies and tasting room sits on top of their wine making facility and looks down on to the vines. Their staff however covers the spectrum from energetic and excited to cold and indifferent. On a practical note, their wines are only partially made from their own fruit. They ship most of it in to be processed. Visit 1 -- We booked using a Groupon deal we were given and drove up on the weekend for the tour. Tour: It was longer than expected but the guide was full of energy was more than willing to explaining everything... sometimes in too much deal. The guide was the son out of the father-son partnership and was proud of his work and he kept the tour lighthearted, fun, and interesting. We both enjoyed the personality he brought to the tour. Tasting & Staff: After the tour we were led to the tasting room where we could sample the different wines. There were two people behind the bar, a grumpy distant blonde women and a spirited barely legal to drink guy (literally, he told us he had just turned 21). We end up with the young guy, and while he was entertaining, his wine tasting etiquette needs a lot of work. The tastings had no order, dry wines followed sweet dessert wines and it was often difficult to tell if you were still tasting the last wine or the new one. After the tastings we bought five bottles but they were primarily for their novelty (non-grape wines like raspberry and blackberry). Presentation: We ended up ordering a cheese plate while enjoying their view from the patio after the tasting. They gave us a knife, a roll of Ritz crackers, and a block of store-brand cheese both of which were still in their original wrappers. Not what you'd expect in a winery-level presentation. Visit 2 -- My father was visiting and we scheduled a tour because we were planning to visit the nearby state park. We didn't have a Groupon this time so we paid the $7/person tour fee when we arrived. Tour: This time it was run by the father and he wasn't nearly as charming as his son. The tour covered some new info but the presentation was a little cold for my taste. Tasting & Staff: After the tour the father took us upstairs and directed us to the tasting bar where the grumpy blonde from last visit was working alone setting up glasses for everyone. As we approached the bar she barked, "Dry or sweet wines? Seven samples only." She repeated the mantra as she walked down the bar again, "SEVEN SAMPLES ONLY!" Every part of her demeanor said she didn't want to be there. Again their was very little rhythm or reason to the order of the wines and they were all over the place. In the end we only ordered two wines but the unpleasantness didn't end after the order. When she rung it up the price was wrong and when I pointed it out she said there was an additional $7/person tasting fee! We called Shenanigans on their ploy... we just paid that amount for a mediocre tour that ended at the tasting bar with the guide inviting us to try their wines. No where did it clearly say it was an additional charge and no one mentioned it. The discussion was heated and we refused to pay the additional $7/person and told them we didn't want any of the wine. To their credit, after some time she relented and cancelled the entire charge and gave us a free bottle of wine. Overall -- It's a cute place but the mix of staff rudeness and inexperience makes it a sub-par experiences. They should seriously consider visting Europe, Napa, or the Finger Lakes to get some pointers on how to present their wines and treat customers.

    A great day.

    Family owned and operated hidden gem that offers great wines and a relaxing patio view of the NC Mountains. So glad we did not base our decision on reading just a few reviews. The woman that helped us was very kind, patient, and an expert into the various flavors they offered. The establishment offers inside and outside seating to enjoy with large groups. Short drive from Charlotte but well worth it. They offer a wide variety that I am sure will handle any sophisticated palate. The bartender / Family answered well, all of our questions and being passionate about their wine carried with the level of her professionalism. Thank you for the wonderful time we had and great tasting sweet and muscadine wines. We will be sure to be back with family.

    View from the gorgeous deck in the winter, it's even better in the spring or fall!

    Is there indoor seating if it's raining?

    Yes but I would not recommend this place to anyone. The wine is nasty and the service is terrible.

    The best location at the vineyard is sitting on the deck that overlooks beautiful Lake Tillery tucked away in the Uhwarrie mountains.
