What a lovely little winery! Very cozy and homey not the somewhat snooty atmosphere one might expect from a typical winery. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. You could tell they love what they do and are proud of this place. We got a little history of the farm and vineyard, and even advice on how to hike the adjacent trail which leads to a lovely tree bathing grove and a replica of the Hoover Dam! We did a wine tasting flight and really enjoyed all of them, particularly the Cabernet Franc and the Barbera a variety we d never heard of and is apparently only found at this NC winery right now. (We bought 2 bottles!) I would classify these varietals as somewhat lighter and less robust than their California counterparts, but that will appeal to some. We thought they were very flavorful and subtly nuanced. Can t wait to see what else they put out in the future.
There is plenty of outdoor seating and space. They have a fire pit and portable heaters as well. You can also purchase charcuterie and small plate items to accompany their delicious wines. Grassy Creek is a wonderful, laid-back place to enjoy a relaxing afternoon!
