Weathervane Winery has been a favorite of mine for years. I grew up in the area and their wine was a staple in my college days. I still have a soft spot for Blue Norther and Rooster Black! Post-grad, I found myself there often with family and friends, particularly at their Friday "Wine-downs," featuring live music and wine slushies that the whole community loved. I hope they make a comeback! The best thing about this place is the fun, relaxed vibe. While they're best known for their sweet wines, they have a solid range of traditional dry offerings that I've come to appreciate more since those early days. :) The tasting room staff is friendly and knowledgeable without being pretentious, so it's perfect for wine newbies and enthusiasts alike. The venue itself is beautiful, with a gazebo, amphitheater, and well-kept grounds. I've been to a couple of weddings and a baby shower there, and they were all lovely. Overall, a laid-back, genuinely fun destination worth the drive. Highly recommend! read more

I did a wine tasting with friends and loved the Blue Northern. It had a great ambiance and the staff were very welcoming. read more

Weathervane Winery - Loved the patio and the wine! The perfect way to relax and watch the sunset. - Wineries Near Me - Lexington, North Carolina

Fantastic vibe and service! Enjoy!! Their meads are excellent, light flavorful and easy. One of the greatest places to visit in High Point. read more

We had a great time at the food truck rodeo last week! Beautiful setting with convenient parking. Not to mention it was kid friendly and pups are welcome. Make sure to try the slushies! :) read more

We have had Weathervane at wine festivals, but we recently decided to stop by their winery after a hike. We did a wine tasting of the sweet wines available: *Placid Peach - this is the one that I remembered and liked. Not my favorite peach wine as I like a little stronger peach flavor, but still a good one. *Rooster Red - an okay wine, did not get much of the intended cranberry flavor. *Strawberry Breeze - thought this was a very good strawberry wine. *Rooster Black - this was very good! Good blackberry flavor. *Tropical Wave - their summer seasonal wine. It was okay. After we did the tasting, we got a glass of their Placid Peach and Rooster Black and enjoyed them on the patio. I really ended up liking Rooster Black the best. My only critiques are because of my own personal preferences. I have really come to like wineries that offer flights. Going to a winery really allows you to enjoy multiple wines rather than having a full glass or bottle of just one wine like you would at home. It's unfortunate that Weathervane does not offer flights. I would also love a wine slushy on a hot day, and it was not offered here. Overall, we enjoyed their wines and would recommend stopping by if you are in the area. They are dog friendly, too, so our pup was allowed to be with us! read more

Weathervane is a beautiful winery in Welcome, NC! I got to try their wine tasting and the one that blew my mind the most was the sparkling wine they had, this is not your typical sparkling wine! The wine had actual sparkles in it, glitter essentially! The host let me try some hot sauce that he sells there, it was really delicious, the right amount would elevate any meal! read more

We came in for a dry tasting. The wines aren't full bodied. They are all easy to drink. There is a patio, front porch, and tasting room. There was a hot dog stand for food. The gift shop has a Lot of cute items. Staff was nice. The grounds were welcoming. Tastings are $15. read more

Very nice people who know their wines. Lovely spot to hang out and sip a spell. Honestly, not our favorite local winery as far as the actual wines. read more

I can't give 5 stars simply because I didn't try the wine but I love the atmosphere here! The wine had sparkles in it, they have an incredible place for live music, and they had yanks franks there! I'll definitely be back to spend time outdoors this summer for the live music! read more

CHECK THIS PLACE OUT! YOU WONT REGRET IT! This place is amazing! Our wine guide was so pleasant and informative. Even though we tasted the fruity wine selection, since I love red wine she, allowed us to try a red wine from the dry list. I can honestly say that EVERY. SINGLE. wine on the list is absolutely delicious! We ended up purchasing 2 bottles, (Apple, & rooster black) and two insulated stemless wine glasses with matte finish. We went on a cooler day so it was perfect for wine sampling! The vineyard is large and most certainly picture perfect! Beautiful place!! WE WILL BE RETURNING! Bottles are moderately priced and well worth every dollar! They also rent the spaces out for gathering, the day we went there was a baby shower going on. They also have cheese, crackers and hummus for purchasing with your wine. We stayed about an 2 hours, and sat at a high top table near the vineyard. Beautiful cozy place and good people! CHECK THIS PLACE OUT! YOU WONT REGRET IT! read more

Lovely wines and genuine good service. A true gem of a vineyard. Private room available for special occasions.

It was a sunny spring day to enjoy this small winery near Lexington. If you like sweet reds or white wines, you will be in the right place! There is a good Pinot Grigio called white table wine that is enjoyable. To get a tasting or buy a bottle remember to bring along your mask in the tasting rm. Outside there is ample space to sit in the gazebo near the vines or on the patio to listen to live music. We enjoyed the music on a Sunday from 2pm to 4pm. A nice place for a picnic or vendor food while enjoying nature, wine and good music. This is a pet friendly venue. Come visit for a peaceful time! Look for the small sign Weathervane Vineyards and for grape vines as it is tucked away off the road. Bring friends or meet new ones and have a relaxing time! read more

My go to vineyard in NC. Everything about this place is a must see. The owner is incredibly friendly, the staff is great, the wine is delicious and the surroundings are beautiful. I buy a lot of NC wine, but Weathervane is always in my wine racks. What really impresses me is that both their dry and sweet wines are on point. And there seasonal wines like the Green Apple Dew, are flawless. read more

I really enjoy small wineries and this place is no exception. It is hidden away and you have to know where you are going in order to find it. In other words, there is a sign on the highway...but after that not so much. They have 2 buildings and the day I went, they were having a craft venue in one and wine tasting in the other. It was pretty cool. The wine tasting area had tables to sit and drink some wine. The staff was nice. This was my first time here and they were very accommodating. A lot of the wine is sweet, with some exceptions. I prefer a more dry wine. They had a Christmas special with some mulling spices, which I bought. It was delicious served hot. I always pass by here. I'm glad I finally got to stop in. read more

What you need to know: Make sure you check-in for a BOGO on wine tastings! Having lived in Winston-Salem for two summers, I always wanted to try the variety of wineries around the area, and finally got the chance to do so. Weathervane represents what you would typically see from a winery. Wine tasting: The tasting was quick but very thorough as our person gave us his best with all the background of each wine and what went into each batch. I went with the reds while my friend went with the sweets. He gave us an additional tasting of some of the seasonal wines as well which was a nice touch. At $7.50 a pop ($7.50 total with the Yelp BOGO), you really cannot beat this tasting for the price. Wines: While there were one or two I wasn't a fan of, the majority of their wines were amazing. I can definitely see why people have Weathervane wines shipped all around the country! For those who like a full bodies red, try the Temperature Rising! It was phenomenal! Ambience: The inside is more of a gift shop with a bar. They have all sorts of wine-related products around from clothes to magnets and everything in between! Wish they had a more comfy space where they do the tastings, but it was still fun to browse. Overall if I'm ever in the area again, Weathervane will definitely be a stop to keep coming back to! Special shout-out to them for carrying a cheese and salami snack box which went perfectly with our wines! read more

Weathervane is THE BEST local family owned winery in Davidson County! We love the venue and the wine. You will not be disappointed in the atmosphere and the friendliness of the staff. The outdoor seating and stage/ampitheater area is awesome for bands and parties. read more

Cute little winery. I love their wines as well. I've tasted their wines before because of the NC wine festivals. They have sweet fruity wines as well as some dries. They have a little everything for everyone. My boyfriend and I came here just to get out and about on a little afternoon date, It's not too far from Winston. Everyone there is very very welcome and nice! If you have any questions about the winery or wines, they are more than happy to help, they are very knowledgeable. So never hesitate to ask them any questions. Now I've been to this winery a couple times years ago so this was the first thought in my mind when we wanted to find something to do! Their tastings are cheap! $7 (you can keep your tasting glass as well!!) for about 6 wines and if you want you can do either the fruity wines or the dry or do what we did and try both! I'm not a dry wine person, I enjoy a good Red wine or Red blend. But their wines are delicious. They have a wine slush that's AMAZING! The outdoor area is also really nice. There is a spot that is inside where you an drink your wine eat snacks and listen to live music. It's really a good time. Mask are required when you enter, but seating outside and tasting the wine of course no masks are needed. They have a lot of rocking chairs outside as well for you to sit and sip. If you're bored and want to try some good wines, check this place out. They're open everyday except on Mondays. So come out drink some delicious wines and have a great time. read more

Weathervane wines do not disappoint, and the owners and staff enhance the experience. After our tasting, the owner had a good idea of what we liked, and recommended several wineries in the area which we might not have visited otherwise. read more

This was my first winery I have ever been to! It is located in a rural area which was nice. The drive was peaceful and it's a warm day so it was so relaxing to have the windows down listening to the Khalid Pandora station. The winery is right off the road and not hard to find. Parking was easy and the place was clean and pretty. Upon entering the the building, we were immediately greeted by an elder gentlemnan who got us started on our tasting. $7.50 each is a great price. I prefer sweet wines while my friend prefers dry. We tested 7 and of them, we each disliked at least one but all the others were good. We did get glasses of Temperature Rising and Placid Peach, and they selll boarshead meats, cheeses, and chocolate almonds. Along with some tastey non-fancy crackers. They also sell wine-themed home decor. We took our wine and food outside. Today was warmer compared to the last few days and it felt so good to relax outside. The set up for the patio we sat one was nice, I can only imagine what it'll look like when the plants grow on it again in the warmer season. They also a gazebo. Overall, I would definitely come back here. read more

Here are a million plus one wineries around and less than half of them are any good. At least that's my opinion. Weathervane is a good one and here is why. The wine is good and considering the abundance of styles and possibilities that is saying something. The grounds are nice. There are nicer and more picturesque but Weathervane is nice and easily accessible to the piedmont triad area. The bar is laid out nicely and the staff have always been great. They throw excellent lawn parties with live music too. Well worth visiting and returning to! read more

Sweet wines and Sweet employees are what Weathervane Winery are about! I recently went to a very fun birthday party here and the staff made sure everyone had that they needed. It was so awesome. I arrived late in from out of town so they were putting the food away as I got there. A very sweet girl saw me come in and took me back to the kitchen right away. She made me a plate and made sure I had what I needed. This was a lifesaver! I had been on the road for hours and hadn't eaten. The food was great! I did try the wine. I am not a fan of sweet wine so I didn't drink a glass. I did taste several and they were very good, I just couldn't drink a whole glass. The grounds are beautiful and the winery itself was easy to get to Using my gps. The party was awesome and I would definitely go back to an event :) read more

Such a cute winery with a wrap around patio and a courtyard so that there is plenty of outside seating so that you can still social distance while being outside. We went on a sunday when they had live music and it was just such a great time. I wouldn't say that the wines were my favorite but they do have a variety so you can definitely find something for everyone's tastes and very reasonably priced. Will definitely be back. read more

Ummm I am in love!! After seeing the reviews on Yelp that this place is a great spot for sweet wine lovers I knew I had to make it in eventually. Andrea P invited me to go over for their chicken stew customer appreciation day so I thought heck yes! The bf and I did a tasting of the sweet wines for $7 each and well we loved almost every single one. The ones that we didn't really care for we didn't hate, there were just so many other delicious options. We ended up buying a Placid Peach, Blue Norther, and the Green Apple Dew They have a great area outside to sit and relax with your wine in the warmer weather. We were there in October and it was perfect. They have a stage where they have bands perform and I think they have specific events on Fridays in the summer that look like a lot of fun. Be sure to check their website out for details! Their Christmas wine comes out today and I am very curious to try them. read more

Great place to sit, sip and relax and listen to live music. Friendly staff and great wine

We've been members for years. 3 years ago we moved to Michigan and every time we came back to visit this was the first place we'd stop to stock up our wine. We moved back last year and the first thing we did was signed up for the membership again. Miranda and Sid are the greatest. Always makes you feel welcome and part of the family. Would recommend Weathervane to anyone looking for a place to sit back, enjoy a great glass of wine with family and friends. Wine Down Fridays - if you haven't gone to one yet you're missing out on some great times. Mich'l & Bill Nicholson read more

Love Weathervane! Small friendly, use mostly NC grown grapes, very easy fresh table wines! Worth a visit and a tasting! Love their Christmas wines! read more

I have been a coming to Weathervane Winery wine club member for 7 years. I have had the opportunity to tour a lot of wineries in North Carolina and other states. Which none compare to Weathervane Winery. I planned my wedding there on September 15th of this year because I could not think of anywhere else I would rather have one of the most important events in the life. Due to Hurricane Florence I had to reschedule my wedding for December. That was a very difficult decision but when I called the staff was so friendly and helpful they always make you feel like family. This is the reason why I will be a life long member and will refer all my friends and family there. Thanks Sheena Foster read more

They have very good wines, but are overpriced for the type of wine that they produce. The service was adequate, but not overwhelmingly great. It's as if they acted like we were privileged to drink their wines. We left and went to Childress Vineyards afterwards. read more

A very small winery. The staff was friendly. The wines were ok. The staff gave us a heads up on the art night in Winston Salem. The tasting you get a branded wine glass cost around $7.50. Cute gift shop. read more

A great stop for quality, sipable wines. Nothing blow you away but everything really good, which we have not found to be true at other places. Very reasonable prices. Nice atmosphere, lots of outdoor space to sip and socialize. read more

Fantastic!! Friendly owners. Great wine. Pretty place. You could drive by and not even know it.

I really like the atmosphere in this place, the grounds are beautiful, lots of places to sit and sip and chat, the staff was cordial and efficient even with the weekend crush. The wine to me was a tad too sweet, but I prefer drier selections but keep in mind that this is my opinion, others may feel different, you can do a tasting or purchase wine by the glass or bottle to consume on the premises. read more

This is my FAVORITE NC winery. The fruit wines cannot be beat: My favorites include Sweet Mountain Bliss (ice cold), Rooster Black and Nor'easter. They also have fantastic seasonal wines like Green Apple Dew, Pomegranate and Strawberry. They also offer a selection of dry white and red wines. Try a glass of 1/2 Bliss and 1/2 Rooster Black- it's to die for and it's the winemaker Sid's wife personal concoction! Wine Tastings are $5.00 per person. This is for 8 dry wines or 8 fruit wines. You keep the glass-WOW!! This is an unpretentious winery- perfect for new wine drinkers. It is small but the tasting room is very cheery and comfortable and they have outside tables for sitting and enjoying your wine. They will soon be selling cheese and crackers as well I believe. Check their website for dates for Friday's Boogie Nights, Cooking events, etc. If they are at a local wine festival you can't miss them- they WILL be the winery with the biggest crowd! read more

Great winery for sweet wines...free events are great during the season! Highly Recommended

Our now daughter-in-law fell in love with this winery at a local wine tasting event in Raleigh. We decided we'd serve Weathervane Wine at the Meet & Greet and Rehearsal dinner. We couldn't have been more pleased! The service was outstanding ( and I might add, at an early hour)! Coming from out of state, we arrived at the winery a tad bit early. Nonetheless,the help we received in the selection and the amount needed was right on and very well received by our guests. A bottle of Weathervane Winery has now become a family tradition for birthdays and special events. read more

This is a smaller winery in the Lexington area, but it's full of charm. We went last weekend for a visit...they have tastings for $5 and I think it included 6 or 7 wines. You also can buy a bottle and stay to drink it. It was a little chilly when we were there, but I imagine it would be really fun to sit outside and sip away! It looked like other people brought rations, so I think they are "picnic friendly" if you're that organized! Very nice owners & employees that were happy to talk to you as long as you like! read more

A group of us were looking for a central location to have a picnic near Winston Salem, NC. We knew there were several wineries in the area but were unsure of which ones allowed picnic. Someone in my office recommended Weathervane Winery. I called to confirm the details of our visit and decided immediately that this winery would be a great place for our use. The gentleman on the phone was friendly and informative. We all met at the winery on a rainy Sunday afternoon. Remarkably, there was a delightful covered area for us to use to picnic that was just off the tasting room. We all selected our wine for lunch and proceeded to have lunch serenaded by live music. We had an awesome afternoon sipping wine, listening to music and visiting. If you're looking for somewhere to relax and enjoy, check out Weathervane. It is really a remarkable find. read more

Low key, relaxed vineyard with a group of employees who seem to really enjoy what they do. Personally I'm not a fan of the wines; too sweet or young for my taste. But they bring in a lot of live music which makes for a fun evening or afternoon with friends. They have a beautiful event room and an outdoor patio with seating. I enjoy hanging out with friends in a Friday night or beautiful weekend afternoon. read more

This is my third year coming to this winery. The wines are excellent and the service staff is extraordinary. A must do if you visit wineries in this area. Always a nice experience to visit this cozy winery . Thank you so much ! read more

Santas Sweetie and Blushing Santa are my most favorite wines! I look forward to these every year!
