All Experiences - Trillium Vineyard

Vineyard and Winery Tour and Tasting

$35.00per person

Let’s take a peek “Behind the Vines” with winemaker/owner, Bruce Cross. We will meet at the tasting room promptly at 2 pm on Saturday. You will be served the first of six tastes of wine to sip as we take the short walk through the Lenoir Vineyard on the way to the winery. At the winery, Bruce will discuss the wine making process, grape varietals, and a little history. We might also experience a taste of unfinished wines that are in the tanks. After we get back to the tasting room, we will go into the Bud Break room for tastes of the remaining five wines and pair them with some local cheese and crackers. Bruce will discuss with us these wines and answer questions. Reserve your space today! Tour will last about two hours. Max 8 people. Must be 21 years old or older. Price: $35 per person. Wine club members will receive their discount.

Mother’s Day is May 9!

Show your mother how much you love her by treating her to a lovely afternoon at Trillium. We will be open from 11 am to 4 pm to honor our moms! A local church will be providing a spring bouquet to the first 30 moms who attend. We will also be celebrating National Moscato Day with one of Trillium’s signature drinks made with our yet-to-be-bottled Moscato. Josh McCorsley will be serving a delicious lunch from his food tent. Don’t forget Grandma!

Please let us know if you will be attending and how many are in your party. Also, please let us know how many children under 9 will be attending. Josh needs to know how much food to prepare. You may either call or text Karen at 770-841-3992 or Sunny at 770-773-5244 or email us at karencross@trilliumvineyard.com or sunnycrane@trilliumvineyard.com.
