Blackhawk Winery and Vineyard

This was my second trip here. The winery is in a cute rural setting that includes farm animals. They have music there which is enjoyable. The employees definitely know their wines, but they seem disorganized in their presentation. I would go back.

We were meeting up with friends in Kokomo and passed the road signs for Blackhawk Winery on our way North. Not having noticed the sign before we decided to stop by on the way back home to Indy.
Boy, am I ever glad we stopped here. Friendly and a free tasting of their various bottles. They take credit cards through the Square system which somehow remembered my card number because it automatically sent me a receipt by email (this was our first visit here but I’ve used the square system at other places).
There was a wine for every taste (my wife and I) and we ended up with a case plus some Schnabeltier cheese they have in the refrigerator case. BTW if you haven’t been to Schnabeltier in Rochester another highly recommended place to go though much further North.

This is my favorite winery in Indiana, and I’ve been to quite a few! Deb & John are so friendly, and I visit this winery whenever I have a chance. It’s a good 50 minutes from my house, but it’s worth it! It’s a relatively new winery, but their wines are so tasty, usually on the dry side, but they have plenty of sweet ones. If you haven’t had a wine float, you are missing out!
Nancy in the tasting room is fantastic and such fun!
This year is their first wine club release, and I’m very much looking forward to it. Blackhawk also has a wine & book club which I wouldn’t hesitate to join if I lived closer! I’ve also helped them harvest grapes (psst-​you get paid in wine!). It’s fun to learn about the wine making process and help a small business owner get bigger and better!
They also hosted a wine run this year, and it was also so much fun! They have regular local music acts on the weekends. My personal favorite is Less is More because they are so friendly and funny!
The winery is on a farm right next to their home, and it’s also fun to see the animals and sit on the nice patio with a bottle of wine and a friend!
New road signs were just put up near the winery so it’s even easier to find. I can’t recommend this winery enough!

Fantastic wines… great service… fun country venu! This is a must stop visit for all wine lovers!
