Grimes Mill Winery

There were mouse turds in our cracker bowl. We showed the man who was pouring our wine who quickly dumped them into the garbage without saying anything then began to tell us about events at the winery instead of addressing the issue. We were out of there as quickly as we could pay our tab. I cannot believe someone would be okay with serving customers in this manner. Completely disgusted and now worried about my health as mice carry diseases and I was eating the crackers out of the bowl!!!

My wife and I stopped on the way to S. Carolina – very reasonable and friendly, tasted wines and purchased a couple of bottles – and I never got to taste of my purchases as my wife and her girlfriend consumed them-​they had batch of new wine – very tasty – nice location–

Some friends and I stopped in last week for a tasting. The lady behind the tasting bar was so rude we decided not to stay. We preferred not to give our money to someone who could make something as enjoyable as tasting wine so unpleasant. Luckily, Jean Farris is close by!

I stopped by on a Saturday with my sister and mom. We were going to different wineries and came here because it was close to a few others. Little did I know that this was really the winery to be at. Not only were their red wines excellent, but the service was INCREDIBLE. They all clearly loved the winery and took a lot of pride in it. The owner was even there and took us on an impromptu tour! It was a great experience. We also got to pet the horses and dogs are welcome which is great. Needless to say I will be joining the wine club and plan to go back in the future to enjoy the many events they have throughout the year. Can’t beat the wine and the company

Three small tastes for six dollars. Right off the interstate for a short stop. Very friendly people and even more friendly dogs.
Not from the area, but seems like a good place to spend an evening out. They have a brand new stage for music and a bocce ball court.

This is on the top of my favorites list (quality and pricing). I have never heard of Grimes Mill Winery. My friend mentioned it awhile back and was excited that we were stopping by. LOVED the tasting room! Décor, setup and coziness.
$ 6.00 wine tasting includes three tastings of our choice and a souvenir wine glass. The bottles start off at 12.00 on up.
This is what I tried:
–Tre Vini Delle Sorelle (this is limited) — My favorite red wine on the list!
–Bourbon Barrel Cabernet Sauvignon
–Reserve Malbec
He even let me try and extra one which he recommend the Merlot. My friend raved about the Edera Deliziosa (Dry whites), so I tried a sip of hers and REALLY loved it that I had to get a bottle. My palate is dry red wines, but open to trying whites. This one is a must try.
They definitely serve top of the notch quality wines and excellent service!

Besides the wine tasting, they have a wine club you can join. Members enjoys 2 or 3 wines, three times per year. Prices vary from $ 11.00– $ 39.00 per bottle plus shipping. Their 2 bottle wine club members get 10% off of their wine purchases and special invitations to Wine club events. Their 3 bottle wine club members get 15% off their wine release purchases and 10% off their wine purchases. The wine club membership is free! You can have it shipped or you can pick it up at the tasting room.
I can’t wait to come back! What an awesome experience!

We love doing the Old richmond rd wine hop for girls days. We always start at grimes mill since we come from richmond then go to Jean Farris and end at Talon. They are a newer winery I believe and are very sweet!

A tasting consists of three pours and a glass. Are they serious?! Yes, my review is based on those three tiny pours and my opinion of the atmosphere. Usually I wait until I’ve tried a local place out a few times before reviewing it, but I seriously don’t see myself going back.
They were having some sort of Chardonnay/​awakening the vines event, so I decided to try their Chardonnay as one of my tastings. It seemed a bit cloudy and wasn’t that good. Then I tried a barrel aged Malbec which was a bit different, especially for a Kentucky wine. I can’t think of any other Kentucky winery that even offers Malbec, so that’s worth a star by itself. My last tasting was Cab reserve. It was ok, very dry. None of three I liked enough to stay and sip on a glass. Maybe it was an odd day, but the patrons were of an older crowd, like 60+. Everyone seemed stuffy. By that I mean, one lady gave me the stink eye when sat down at the bar beside of her, that wasn’t a good first impression, so I was hoping to be knocked away by the wines, but as you can tell, I just wasn’t. Maybe if I’d have tried more, then I maybe found one that I liked, but I guess we will never know.
It’s right down the road from Jean Farris Winery, so I’m glad that I was able to head over there and enjoy a glass on their patio.

Friendly little winery with nice wines. Cozy tasting room with fireplace for chilly days. Has «local» feel to it. You can step outside and commune with the equine residents. Pleasant surrounds.

This place has the feel of a neighborhood bar (in a good way!) in that it seems to attract «regulars» who come hang out and enjoy a glass of wine after work. I did a tasting and their tasting prices were ok, but not great. A tasting does include one of their glasses that you get to take home, but I didn’t really need or want one, so it’d be nice if they’d offer a discounted tasting that didn’t include the souvenir glass.
Their wines that I tasted were fine, but nothing seemed particularly great or unique so I didn’t buy any bottles. Also, the prices seemed high for the wines that I was tasting. Their tasting room is pretty and comfortable, and their grounds are pleasant, but not as attractive as the other wineries in the area.
Overall, they aren’t bad, but I do think some of their competitors in the area are better.

Great wines! Daniel was working this afternoon & he was wonderful, very personable & knowledgable. My husband John & I had a few tastings & enjoyed a glass of vino while walking the property. Ivy (a golden doodle pup) was in the tasting room greeting each customer. she was a cutie & very playful & friendly. They also have 3 horses grazing the property. Delicious Kentucky wines. Cozy tasting room. Great people. We will defiantly be back. Try them out. You will not be disappointed!

My husband and I stopped by for a quick diversion on our road trip home. We were impressed with the quality of the wines from this family. The pourer was knowledgable and answered our questions. The owners were also available and provided some additional insider info about winemaking. We were surprised by the difference between the Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve and the pourer explained the reasons for the difference in how the reserve was aged in French oak at the owners residence and the other in KY oak barrels. I really didn’t believe there would be that much of a difference until I tasted them. We bought a bottle of each as well as the Pinot Grigio and Malbec.

We were told about this new winery by the pourers over at Equus Run and decided it was worth our time if they liked it! The tasting room is very welcoming, as was our pourer that afternoon. They had fewer wines on their menu than some of the other places but this made it easier to pick what you wanted to taste. I found a dry KY wine that I liked and I was sad that it was the only dry red on their menu (only to find out later they had sold out of two other dry reds). As we were tasting and asking questions we found out one of the owners was standing by us at the bar, and when she (or the pourer) didn’t know the answer to some of our questions the winemaker showed up form the back to answer them! The owners are very friendly and will gladly take you on a tour of this small winery. This would be a great place to bring a picnic (they have tables set up outside) and enjoy some delicious wine.
