Jojo’s Homestyle Pimento Cheese and Sydneys Gourmet Sandwiches

  We know that it is not always possible to pack a snack and come for a visit.  So, we have taken that job away from you and are pleased to carry these here at the winery.  You can enjoy a bottle of wine and visit with friends while having lunch under the oaks.  The sandwich tray is $9 and they are delivered every Friday afternoon.  The pimento cheeses are here now and are available for $7 and $7.50.

Sunday Vintage Tasting

This past Sunday was a chilly and rainy afternoon.  It was one of those days when no one may walk in or… Paige came to help and Dwight joined her for the afternoon.  One lady came in and bought a bottle.  She said she was going to enjoy it with a good movie. Not a bad plan.  Then slowly more people came in.  Some to pick up their wine club selections and enjoy a glass and visit. We recently put a “Vintage Rack” in the Craft Room. Red wines from… Read More
