Great stop while heading to the keys. They service is a little suspect and the wines were a little sweet for our taste but the ambiance and the beer more than make up for it.I went with a group of 4, 3 of us did the wine tasting and 1 did the beer. When we tried to pay we had a few questions on the different tastings and it seemed everyone we talked to just started working there and knew nothing about the different types of tastings! We finally talked to a manager and he was able to actually answer our very basic questions.The wines were all a little too sweet for our taste but if that is your thing you will love their wines. For the beer tastings you try about 4 beers and then you get a pint of your favorite one. And you get to keep the glass! We decided to taste outside in front of the building since we had a small dog with us (they aren't allowed inside our out back in the grounds). It was a very windy day and some of the small taste glasses flew over - not to worry though, when I went inside they were very friendly in pouring us many extra samples which was very nice of them. The woman at the beer counter even had me try several of the beer "blends" where she mixed some of what thy had in tap - truly a cool experience. We didn't try any of the food and we also got to keep wine glasses from the tasting which was cool.Would recommend to anyone looking for a break while driving to the keys.
This was a very nice winery to visit and have a tasting. The tours however, are only given on the weekend which was too bad because I always enjoy the tours of wineries.
We don't normally do wine tastings. But we had the time, and we read good reviews about the place. The wine tasting was only $10 per person, and you get to keep the gorgeous wine glass they give you. We really enjoyed the wine (especially the Passion fruit). Not only was this a great place to taste some wines, but the backside of the property is gorgeous. We felt like we were in Bali or something. It was so tropical! There's a waterfall and the grounds are just very pretty - great for taking some pictures! The service was good, too. We had a great time.
I love that I can relax with friends, drink wine and hang out in a beautiful environment that is family friendly. There are always awesome bands and we always have a great time.
I went there at night, on the recommendation of friends. Music, ambience and place are outstanding. Wine and beer options also colorful, exotic and interesting. I would return but unless things change for the better, I would eat something before getting there. In my opinion, not paying attention to the food options is just plain bad business practice. Schnebly has the potential to match food service to the level of its beverages. I paid $25 for two sad burgers served with a slice of cheese and a bag of chips for me and companion. The sign read pasta salad but apparently they were out of it. No explanations or substitute or price adjustment. No ad ons for the burgers either. A bun, a burger and a slice of cheese... $11.95 each plus tax. The food took 20 minutes several of which were waiting for the lady taking the orders doing her best to take old fashioned credit card payments taking manual imprints. Really nice place though, not interested in putting the place down since we actually had a great time. I would recommend it and more than likely return myself and hope that a wine and dine option, even if just a burger, match since everything else was a 5 star rating.
It cost $10 each to taste wine - you keep the glass - if you need a glass while on vacation? The young man serving was fair at description. Some wines were pretty good if you like citrus flavors. Tours offered only on weekends:( so not much to see. They have beer tasting too - interesting flavor but did not want to mix tasting. We split one pint - $6. Sounds like they have parties on weekend, so could be fun time.The sell the wine at Walmart at 2/3 rd the price, so go to Walmart at Homestead.
I like to take visitors somewhere that's tropical & Florida, yet not your usual Florida destination. Schnebly Winery is my first choice! The construction is coral and the landscaping couldn't be lovelier, making it a top choice for weddings and their weekend parties. For a small fee, you can get your own Schnebly wine glass and sample their own vintage made from kiwi, guava, and mango, as well as a whole list of tropical goodies. My favorite wine was first concocted by mistake; others are described as hurricanes (Cat. III anybody?). Purchase a snack of cheese and crackers (they have some of the best Brie I ever had) or an obligatory souvenir t-shirt (99% Chance of Beer Tonight) to round out the visit. Yes, you can also sample their own private brew in several shades, although it does not live up to the quality of their wine. And when you leave, take along your favorite red, white, or dessert wine by the bottle or by the case. And make sure you ship some home to your friends; nobody expects to get wine from the far southern end of sunny Florida! I love having company; it's a great excuse to enjoy a relaxing afternoon in one of the most beautiful spots around. The visit is free, but the wine isn't, but only a fool would leave without spending a leisurely hour or so at the wine tasting bar.
When you think of wineries, South Florida most likely doesn't come to mind; however, Schnebly Redland's is a surprisingly lovely hidden gem. The wines were fresh and crisp, but the fruit smell was a little shocking initially. Bring a picnic and buy a bottle and bring a group of friends on a Saturday. There is live music, but you'll have to pay a cover to stay inside. Luckily, picnic tables are located outside the main entrance where you can sit for free.
I will level with you, wine is not Schnebly's strong suit. I knew this going in, so I opted for the beer. The beer is good. I had a combination (the bartender suggested) and my boyfriend had the IPA (very good). You feel like you're in a tropical resort. I could have spent hours there and, in fact, almost missed my dinner reservations because it's tough to leave.For photos to see what I mean, visit: http://tinyurl.com/q4jckx5
My family and I were looking for another winery when we stumbled on this one. The variety of wine is different and very good. A tasting is not cheap but the wines are tasty and you get to keep the glass after. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed the avocado wine. They also offer a beer tasting experience. We did not do it but it seemed quite popular. They have a nice garden at the back and the atmosphere is extremely pleasant. Highly recommended.
