1 Carolina Heritage Vineyard & Winery

4.9 Superb 125 Reviews

170 Heritage Vines Way, Elkin

“Although I was somewhat disappointed with their wines (in fact the few I tried were a bit off putting - - one even a bit oxidized to the point of nearly vinegary) it's still a good choice I recommend anyone to visit. The new owner/family care very much about making you feel welcome and appreciated, they are very dog friendly, and the place has a great look and feel. PLUS, they offer some excellent beer options. Everyone I observed was thoroughly enjoying their visit, and I wouldn't hesitate to return either.”

“🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 **Elkin Creek Vineyard: An Unforgettable Family Getaway!** 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Our weekend escape to **Elkin Creek Vineyard** was nothing short of magical! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by the warm, welcoming staff, setting the tone for an unforgettable experience. The vineyard itself is a breathtaking oasis, perfect for families looking to unwind and reconnect with nature. The scenery alone would have been enough, but then we discovered the true gems of this destination—the **superb wine selection** and the **authentic brick oven pizza**! 🍷🍕 Every sip of their exquisite wine was like a journey through the vineyard, rich with flavor and crafted with love. And the pizza? It was simply divine! The brick oven imparts a crisp, flavorful crust that pairs perfectly with the fresh, local ingredients. What truly sets Elkin Creek Vineyard apart is the heartfelt attention to detail and the genuine care that the team puts into every aspect of the experience. They made us feel like part of the family, and their passion for what they do shines through in every glass of wine and every slice of pizza. If you're looking for a place that combines the best of nature, food, and hospitality, **Elkin Creek Vineyard** is an absolute must-visit. We left with full hearts, big smiles, and a renewed appreciation for life’s simple pleasures. Thank you, Elkin Creek Vineyard, for creating memories we will cherish forever! 🌟🍷🍕❤️”

“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”

12 Grassy Creek Vineyard & Winery

4.9 Superb 94 Reviews

235 Chatham Cottage Lane, State Road · 3.52 miles

“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.”

“My husband and I are going to the Amish country store up in Yadkinville from the Lake Norman area. I found this little place on Facebook and decided to give it a try. I have to say hands-down it was the best fried oysters, fried flounder fillet, hush puppies, and coleslaw we have ever had. I am originally from the coast and will say that these oysters were better than any I have had at the beach.”

We didn't purchase any but they did have some cheese and snacks that you can buy. we will definitely go back if we're in the area again.”

“The owner is very knowledgeable, and the wine tasting was interesting. He selected dry wines he had made, because I don’t like sweet wines. He took his time and explained each of the dry wines. The Chardonnay and Malbec are distinctive, and I am enjoying each of the two bottles I purchased.”

“Our experience for first time visitors was excellent. Food and service were impeccable. Presentation of dishes was very appealing, flavors were excellent, food temperature coming out of the kitchen was perfect. Nice having co-owner walking the floor checking on everyone, give you that welcoming "home" feeling. We really enjoyed and we were a group of 4 and NO one was disappointed and kept saying we gotta come back for xxxxx that they didn't try or wanted to have again. YUMMY! The ONLY thing we did not like was how noisy it was. Unfortunately with work schedules we could only coordinate probably a peak dining hour and it was VERY difficult to hear conversations.”
