7 Best Wineries near Helen

“Great experience! Loved trying new wines made from everything but a grape! Staff (I wish we got her name) was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, warm, and very friendly. She completely sold me on purchasing the Pear Mead. We definitely plan to return in the future.“

“Tina was so nice & knowledgeable about all the wine options. There is a variety of wine and beer options. They even have a fridge with juices and water for the kids for purchase. Clean and nice staff. There’s a nice patio to sit and sip.“

“One of our favorite wineries! The wines are excellent, staff is friendly and helpful. They always have music on the weekends. You can bring your own food or they have some charcuterie items or purchase. Great outdoor area with lots of tables. There is a also an area with fire pits and a dome you can rent. Dogs are allowed outside only. They have a small indoor seating area as well. (no pets inside on rainy days) Would highly recommend!“

“VIsited The Cottage again on 9 April on a rainy Tuesday. Christine was a joy as our server and actually suggested another new winery near Blairsville to try! Tried the Expressions Rose and left with several bottles as well as the Meritage red which we've liked for several years! Our first time seeing the new building open and its very nice! Outside seating has expanded again with another lower gravel area added. We'll keep coming back every trip! Our dogs also highly recommend the "gourmet grass" they grow as highly tasty!“

“Second time visiting and wanted to share my wonderful experience here. BIG SHOUTOUT to Tanner. He was very informative of the different types of wine and excellent care for our visit here.Will definitely continue to drop by when I'm in the area and will recommend for all visitors as a must visit winery.Thank you Yonah winery and Tanner!!“

“After a rainy week the weather finally cleared and we stopped by Cenita on Friday the 12th. Relaxing as ever we sat and ate while enjoying a bottle of the Sauvis. Buddy posed for a photo and all the colors seemed so bright after a week of overcast and drizzle.“

“Go ahead and bump this place to the top of your list for wineries to visit in Dahlonega. Sarah, who walked us through the tasting was simply amazing and super knowledgeable. The vineyard is stunning, the main building is so insanely beautiful, and wow wow wow the wine. Absolutely my new favorite vineyard to visit up here.“
