If the weather is nice, spend the afternoon sitting on the outdoor patio overlooking the Little Pigeon River as you taste the cider or a glass of wine.

This lovely winery is built from local barn wood that was taken from farms where the barns could no longer stand, so you are sure to love the authentic historical atmosphere!
