So friendly! We really enjoyed meeting Dana and having great conversation while trying out some good wines. Dana was very sweet, made sure we were comfortable and taken care of, and we enjoyed meeting her equally hospitable friends. Brought a couple bottles home! read more

What a nice little winery. We were treated to a free tasting, and came away with several red bottles: Circle B, Iron Horse Red, and Texas Dry Rose. And two winery glasses. We are so glad we stopped at this place. read more

Well today was a 5* Yelpin' day all around coming back from New Mexico. First K Bryant's Bar B Que in Childress then this fantastic winery in a gorgeous building on Childress' town square. Wines we sampled (for free!) were all very good. The staff were great and very enthusiastic about their winery. As a result, we are now as well. Will definitely plan future trips thru north texas so we will hit 501 at prime wine drankin time! read more

This is a really nice place. I stopped in to see what they had to offer. They have a good selection of wines and gifts. They were very helpful and offered a tasting of wines I wanted to consider. It was nice to chat with them while I decided what to get. Overall great atmosphere and people. read more

Great wines. Friendly staff. Nice little patio. I would suggest their Moscato- Little bubbly and perfect. Pet Friendly!

This review is a little late, but I couldn't let our experience go unnoticed! We broke down in the tiny town of Childress and were stuck for 3 days. I was 37 weeks pregnant and miserable. We found this little gem and were immediatly felt welcomed. The woman was so nice and seemed so genuine. We chatted for quite a while about our travels and the history of this tiny town. The wine was surprisingly good for middle of no where Texas. We then went and relaxed outside with the stores little dog, very nice and cute outside. When we wanted to leave the woman refused to let us pay. She said it was on them, due to our ridiculous road trip luck and a thank you to my husbands time in the military. Such a sweet gesture!!!! It really made up for our bad luck :) read more

501 was always on our bucket list and when we were heading to Amarillo we made sure we stopped in Childress when the winery was open. The tempranillo was unlike most we've had before, it was very true to the varietal. All of their wines are immediately drinkable. The vineyards associated with the winery also provide grapes to some other wineries in the state. The tasting room recently opened, it was in another location previously, and the tasting staff is friendly and helpful. read more

This place is super cute. Very sweet, accommodating, the patio is amazing, and it's dog friendly. Extra plus - they make a great cheese plate (and helped my mom get it back to our hotel), and they ARE open on Mondays (contrary to the yelp hours). read more

My sister and I were passing through town and decided to check out The 501 Winery. We thoroughly enjoyed it! The people were so friendly! My 1-year-old daughter made friends fast! The wines were wonderful. Ended up buying the Tempranillo, both red blends, the Tempranillo chocolate sauce, and the Viognier jelly. Cannot say enough about the beautiful building either! Loved the stage! We felt so welcome there and everything we tasted was delicious! read more

Just happened on this winery. My wife and I were heading to Palo Duro Canyon and just happened to see their billboard in Childress and decided to stop...very glad we did. They give any 4 tastings for no charge...which was perfect for me. They had 4 dry reds...2 they made...Tempranillo (I loved) plus Sangiovese and 2 red blends by their friends. All were good. My wife had mainly whites and really liked the Moscato and the Debutante and their sweet red. They also supply grapes to 2 of our favorite north texas wineries...Arche and Blue Ostrich. Evidently they know how to grow quality grapes and are now turning them into some really good Texas wines! read more
