Persimmon Ridge Vineyards

So, first time here. Not a typical «hey let’s go to a winery day». It was raining, overcast and a little chilly. That being said, we were greeted by «Grandson» who said we couldn’t park closer, even though no one else was there but one car. «Grandpa’s friend» hollered out the door, to let us park there, but «Grandson» said he’d get us an umbrella and we could walk or we could sit in the car until it stopped! Seriously! I wanted to shove the umbrella into parts not shown, but we could roll. We did park, down the road, off the premises, used the stupid insulting umbrellas and went inside. Oh, that was just the beginning! Yes, there was entertainment. A keyboard player and a guitar player, which if we would have stayed longer were probably really good. The wine tasting went ok, only because «Grandpa’s Friend» was bartending!!! What a gentleman! A very pleasant man. The Sangria was really good, the wine not so much, but I didn’t even want to put down another dollar, even for a water bottle! Once «Grandson’s» beloved dog made it to the top of a table, next to people that were EATING, we were done. Won’t be returning… ever.

This place is nothing short of amazing. The owners are friendly, the atmosphere is fantastic, the bands are awesome, and their wine selection is exquisite. I absolutely love it there! Will definitely come back.
