TODAY’S THE DAY - come on out to the fairgrounds for the annual Wine & Vine Festival - a great way to support Kentucky’s wineries, try new wines, and enjoy a beautiful day (tomorrow’s Father’s Day - a ticket to the fair would make a great gift even if dad‘s not a wine drinker, as there will be lots of fun things for everybody).
Our tasting room will be open, as usual, from 1:00 to 6:00, so if a festival isn’t for you, come on out and enjoy the porch and some great wine. And a very Happy Father’s Day to all you wonderful dads!

We’re so glad to once again be participating in the annual Wine & Vine Festival - not only is it a great way to catch up with other wineries and make new friends, but best of all is being able to see you faithful wine lovers who come out year after year. We’re so grateful for all of you. Our tasting room will be open from 1 - 6 next Saturday in case you want to come out and sit a spell. Hope you’re having an awesome weekend.

Tomorrow calls for rain and storms, which means no golfing, picnics, or fun 😣☔️
BUT, the tasting room will be open from 1:00-5:00, there’s a great sunroom, you can bring food and friends, and there’s LOTS of good wine, 😁🌞.
Hope to see you soon!
