Absolutely breathtaking atmosphere with creek and woods surrounding a lovely tasting room. Very good wines, and on my visit, we were helped by the winemaker himself. Wish the restaurant had been open, though. Food sounds great. Will return to eat some day.
My daughter had her wedding there this past Saturday. The whole thing went very nice. Could not ask for a better time. The staff did a outstanding job taking care of us and the food and wine was incredible. The cabin we stayed in was wonderful as well.
I admit I was a little leery on the approach to the winery, but it was probably the dreary, rainy day. Once we walked into the comfy, rustic tasting room, I was no longer leery. We were warmly greeted by the winemaker and some fellow wine enthusiasts from SC. The winemaker is very knowledgeable and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed his stories and descriptions, not to mention the wine. We ended up buying three bottles (it was tough to narrow it to three) and a half loaf of sourdough bread to go. I would love to return on a Sunday to try the wood-fired pizza. The phone was constantly ringing for pizza reservations. This is a star in the Yadkin Valley and makes me want to return sooner rather than later.
We went here on a Sunday, after a recommendation from another winery nearby. The pizza was worth the wait, very fresh and flavorful. It seems like they have stretched themselves a little bit thin with serving food on Sundays though; at one point, our server appeared to go out with a family to do a vineyard tour, so then there was only one poor girl left to cope with the wine tasting bar, the inside seating area for food and drinks, and the outside deck area too. So service was a bit slow. The building itself is stunning, and surrounded by the vines, it's a gorgeous setting.The wines were definitely not the high point of this place. We were really disappointed by the light reds, some of them even sparkling. And you don't even get to keep the wine glasses for the price of the wine tasting! I'm afraid we would not return here.
We enjoyed the wines at this winery! The setting is lovely as well. A great place for a picnic with friends while enjoying these top notch wines! We will return!!
We loved this winery. It was so pretty. Go straight to the port and lemoncello desert wine offerings. You won't be dissapointed.
Although we didn't get to stay in the cabin because the pipes froze during the cold snap, we did enjoy the wine tasting. The owners were very kind and took care of finding us alternative accommodations. The wine is wonderful and pizza is delicious! We will try again!
We have been going to this vineyard for several years, visiting between Christmas and New Year's each year. The new owners (of about 2 or 3 years), have really made this a place worth visiting. The have a really nice selection of wines. On Sunday they make homemade pizzas - you need to pre-order your crust, as they only make so many. Enjoyed a late lunch of excellent pizza, and good red wine. You can walk down along the river, there is also outdoor seating available They have a few new cabins on site which are for rent. We will be back again next year.
We stopped in at elkin creek during our yadkin valley winery weekendVery nice wines and a great opportunity to visit with the winemaker they were quite busy in the restaurant so the tasting took quite a while but it was a great experience nevertheless Wish we had time to eat lunch in their restaurant the pizza smelled wonderful. Did buy a loaf of their wood fired oven bread to go it was fantastic Will definitely go back
We enjoyed sitting outside with a glass of merlot at this beautiful winery. The creek and vineyards make for a peaceful place to enjoy a glass. We have been there twice and have yet to be disappointed! Truly a great winery!
