“Michaela, September 13, 2026

Thank you for coordinating our lovely dinner, lunch and tour with your wine maker at Shelton Vineyards on September 10, 2026. The members of the Ocean Isle Beach AWS Chapter had nothing but praise for our wonderful experience, quality of the food and top-notch service provided by the dining room staff.

I am so happy that I choose your services for preparing the lunch we enjoyed at Surry College, and our wine paring dinner at the Harvest Grill. We all were impressed by the depth of your winery and the knowledge and passion of your wine maker in producing the excellent wines we all enjoyed. Please share our praise with your staff, and we look forward to returning for another visit.

Thank you,....Steve Rosen“

“This place has FANTASTIC service! There food is amazing and their wine 😍😘 is fabulous!!“

“Our new favorite place. Great indoor and outdoor seating. Wide variety of wines and the frozen pelican red is a must try!“

“I saw some recent reviews that made me nervous to try this place, but the menu looked yummy and I gave it a shot. Everything was delicious, from the wine to the pimento fondue and homemade chips, the scallops with chorizo risotto, the ribeye pork chop, and the apple cherry sonker dessert. All was made well, super tasty, and a great experience. I have a gluten sensitivity ans they had a bunch of options including fresh, warm biscuits and a cobbler-like dessert. Kim, our server, sweet and attentive. I would absolutely go back.“

“We liked our visit, the staff were very friendly, but not really good. Had a nice selection of both wine and beer on tap. However, they never remembered the name on our tab or what we were drinking. They took a while to get your order and they looked genuinely surprised that you wanted to order a drink. They would let you stand at the bar take your glass and act as if getting another beer or glass of wine was something they were unaccustomed to. Each time you walked up to get another drink they would just look at you say hi and then stand around until you explicitly indicated you needed something. They would then forget your oder act like they couldn't find your name on the tab, (they do take and hold on to your card while you are there), and eventually get you a drink. Please dont take it the wrong way, they were super friendly and wanted to talk and take care of you its just they wanted to talk to each other more than getting you a drink. I would just hate to see them when they were busy. Please keep in mind we were the only customers they had. I will say they have excellent bathrooms, they were large, spacious and very clean. They also have a large covered patio area, large enough for 15-20 people to comfortably sit and hangout. They had plenty of seating inside and several tables with umbrellas and a fire pit outside. They have some hiking trails as well, we did not get to walk the trails due to rain.“

“I have visited this winery several times over the years and I always have a wonderful time. The staff is top notch! The wines are incredible and I love the Unique names! They are a laid back winery with fun and welcoming atmosphere. P.S PLEASE bring back the Original After Dinna D’lite!!!!!“

“Carolina Heritage has a great atmosphere, super friendly staff and a great selection of both wines and local beers. I’m not a fan of muscadine wine so the tasting wasn’t my favorite, but I did like a couple of them. I do highly recommend for those who enjoy Muscadine wines.“

“Great facility, great wines.“
