My mom and I were on our way home from a disappointing trip to a pickle fest yesterday and decided to hit up some wineries we've never been to. While this place was a little out of the way, we were super happy that we stopped. My mom saw they had a chocolate wine from the window, and at that moment, she was stoked 😅 Kelly was amazing and welcoming. She was super friendly and asked us questions like where we were from, and what kind of wines we liked, and explained to us the wine menu and what wine would pair well with each of our picks. We even picked up baked lemon ricotta cheese that she recommended! We will definitely be back possibly with some friends. We each bought 4 bottles. Mine being pictured below! Strawberry fields tasted like a pb and jelly, Black on black to me tasted like fruity pebbles, flaming red was sweet yet had a smoky taste to it. Was different than I ever had before.
Be aware that this isn't an actual vineyard. It's a small little shop located around other shops. Don't come here and get mad it's not a huge winery with fields. It's also not your normal tasting where you pick your 5-6 wines and immediately are served. These tastings take about 30mins, she explains the menu. If you don't like information on what you are drinking and want something fast, this isn't the place for you. But I highly recommend stopping to get a tasting! They have something for everyone from super sweet, sweet, dessert wine, semi sweet, dry, super dry. They have over 30 options to...
Read moreThis place not only had some of the best wines I've ever tasted, but also has the GREATEST tasting experience, hands down! 🍷A quick side note: They do sit-down wine tastings, which is not common, and the size of the shop can cause it to get pretty busy. My fiancé and I lucked out, because it wasn't busy yesterday when we visited.
Kelly was SO passionate and knowledgeable about her role at Cullari. I genuinely appreciated how she took the time to explain the different descriptions, wine notes, and what they pair well with, plus some tips and tricks for serving. I love wine, but can quickly get overwhelmed with the knowledge of different wines... Kelly didn't make me feel incompetant or overwhelmed at all, she was so thorough with her explanations!
The wine itself is phenomenal- I can easily see why they have best sellers in their selections. The menu of flavors was vast, but all of the selections seem to be well-crafted and high in quality. The White On White and chocolate wine were delicious.
I truly hope this business sticks around for a long time, because without it, Bricker Village would be sorely lacking. If you're in the area, you MUST stop in. In my opinion, the sit-down tasting helped me to appreciate the wine 10× more than a regular tasting at any...
Read moreI can not resist writing a review of a very special hostess named “KELLY”. This is the second time a neighbor and I have had her and she is the very best experience that I have ever had at a wine tastings winery. She puts her heart into her job and truly enjoy pleasing and entertaining her customers. She is not only entertaining but she is also so efficient and and doesn’t neglect anyone even with a full house of customers. She is simply amazing. If possible she should be cloned. Every winery should have a Kelly. I told my neighbor, I would love to be a guest at her home because she is so knowledgeable and make everything sound so delicious with her knowledge of pairing. I did not have any cash on me to generously tip her but Lord willing I will make up for it on my next visit. She is extremely special and an asset to Cullari Vineyards. What a gifted woman. Looking forward to my next visit when Kelly is there. Thank you for allowing me to give Kelly the recognition that she...
