Description

Even if you don't love wine, you'll love Childress Vineyards. The winery here consists of an elegant 35,000 square-foot Italian Renaissance-style building where you'll go for tastings and to see how the wine is made and stored. There's even a bistro here, where you can dine on delicious offerings such as baked brie, antipasto, and tiramisu cheese cake. The guided tours here are fantastic, and include a lesson in winemaking as well as a tour of the beautiful facility and views of the surrounding vineyards. Be sure to take the time to stop and taste some of the winery's award-winning varieties especially their Chardonnay, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon.
