Cellar 4201 is in a beautiful location and has the best maintained vines I’ve ever seen. All the wines were good and they have an good selection of reds, although the rosé was actually the standout wine for me.

Awesome Winery. Exceptional wines and wonderful caring staff. We were served cheese, pita chips and chocolates with our wine tasting. The gentleman serving us was very knowledge and kind.

This winery has an endearing quality. Even though it was a rainy Saturday, there were groups of people occupying the tables outside, enjoying bottles of wine and having fun. The«host» was very personable and shared the history of the winery along with his own thoughts on each varietal. We received 8 tastings for $ 8, which is a little pricey compared to others in the area, but we were able to try additional tastings of the wines as we were trying to decide what to purchase. If you like dry wines, this place must be on your list! We enjoyed the barrel fermented Chardonnay and the Cherokee Red. Even their«sweet» red, Sweet Native, wasn’t very sweet. It was really delightful with a hint of cherry. I would definitely return here; making sure I have time to sit on the patio and enjoy the view and the wine.

A friend and I visited this winery on a rainy Saturday, so unfortunately we did not get to enjoy the nice patio space. However, we had a really great tasting and enjoyed chatting with the staff. They had a number of good wines and I bought a bottle of Sangiovese to take home – just had it tonight and it was even better than I remembered! I would highly recommend a visit here.

Great winery with excellent wines and a very welcoming staff. Don’t miss their Cherokee Red and Merlot. There is a great area for siting outside and there are always munchies available to try with the wine.

I’ve visited Cellar 4201 twice in the past year and it is one of my favorite small wineries in Yadkin Valley. The tiki bar patio with the hibiscus plants along with other bright flowers is different from all the other wineries I have visited(along with the reggae music in the background). The small tasting room with safari décor is also unique. The owners led our tastings and are very personable and of course knowledgable. The wines cater more to people who like dry and not sweet wines. My favorite wine was a sparkling rose that was only their the first time I visited and unfortunately they ran out and did not have any more to sell that day. I also enjoyed the Sangiovese and Merlot. I definitely recommend trying Cellar 4201 and I look forward to coming back.

We visited this winery on Saturday, July 3rd. East Bend sounds like an off-the-beaten-track destination but it’s only a quick 40 minute drive from Greensboro. It’s a nice drive as well and if you go through Bethania you get a glimpse of a quaint little town from a time long gone. You do have to pay a little bit of attention as you get close to the winery as the sign announcing the entrance is small and low to the ground. As we drove up, we were very impressed with the obvious attention spent on keeping the grounds and patio neat, clean and colorful. All manners of well maintained plants and flowers are in pots on the patio. At least a half dozen umbrella-covered tables are available to sit at and relax. The tasting room is cozy and nicely decorated. Cheese, pita chips and chocolates are available on the tasting bar to nibble on between wine pours. Our tasting cost $ 5 each and consisted of 8 different pours including a stainless steel and oak chard, standard and reserve vintages of a merlot and a cab sav, a sangiovese and a off sweet rose made from the sangiovese grapes. All the wines were solid but we felt the stainless chard and both merlots were the best of the group. My girlfriend, who is not a oak chard fan at all even enjoyed their oaked offering. To my palate the cab sav was a bit light on the mouthfeel. Props to Cellar 4201 for producing a solid sangiovese in NC! The prices are quite reasonable with the reserves topping out at just $ 15. The owners, Greg and Donna Hutchinson, and their staff were very, very friendly and you could tell its is important to them that their guests have a pleasant visit — including chatting with us on the patio as we enjoyed a glass of wine. The winery works in conjunction with several of the other nearby wineries and sponsors tasting events and mini-festivals with them. They also have their own Cellar 4201 logo’d cornhole set just off the patio. Overall, this was a very enjoyable afternoon that came together on the fly. =) Wine: 7⁄10; Service: 10⁄10; Value: 8⁄10; Atmosphere 9⁄10
