I don't even believe it's going to take a girl from NYC to be the first to review the Lynchburg Winery, but here goes!
Lynchburg, Tennessee is home to the Jack Daniel's distillery. But up the road, just past the distillery is where you can find the town's center with antique shops, gift shops, an ice cream parlor, a pizza place and few other places to past the time away while visiting. The friend I came down to visit has been meaning to check out their winery, so we made it a point to put it on the itinerary and it did not disappoint.
When walking in, you enter in a room with a register to the right and some novelty items for purchase. Just past this is the actual tasting room. The room is rustic and spacious with a nice size bar in the center. They had two people manning the bar. According to the website, they had two tastings, a regular and a premium. But when we got to the bar, there was only the regular tasting available.
Pencils are placed at the bar for you to check off what wines you'd like to sample. They are listed in order from dry to sweet. The wines were tasty with the Moscato being my fav and the Pinot being my friend's. We bought a bottle of each. Each bottle cost $17.95 which isn't bad in the slightest.
Things to note:
1) There is no food for purchase but if you need a soda, you can purchase one from the fridge in the tasting room.
2) if you are hungry, don't fret! Like mentioned earlier, there are food options within the town.
3) The Lynchburg Distillery is attached, with moonshine that can be bought as well. I may have bought a sampler without a tasting because YOLO.
4) Like your tasting glass, they are available for purchase at $2.50.
Fun day in Lynchburg, TN and a must if you're ever in the area.
