Rusty Nail Winery — Attraction in Sulphur

I ran across this little winery while shopping downtown. ( I was only in town to visit my hubby, who is working near Davis on the wind farm and was looking for something to do while he was at work.) This little winery has such a nice rustic look along with the natural look of a winery. I was greeted with smiles and everyone was friendly. I was given a little history of the place and how it came about. I was so impressed by my wine tasting, I brought my husband up to test some, so I would get a bottle both of us like! My husband and I both like most of the sweet wines, which for us was a change since we have only found a couple wines we have ever liked! We enjoyed the sitting area in the back to sit and enjoyed a glass of wine and some complimentary cheese and crackers. You can order a appetizer of one of their dips also. I had a very hard time choosing which wines to actually buy first but settled on the Peep Toe and Tinkerbell. It's a must stop for anyone driving through or in town site seeing! I know you won't be disappointed! I will for sure be making a trip back by ladies! ...

My husband and I visited Rusty Nail during a visit to the area in January. The servers were wearing masks and tables in the back area were pretty well distanced. We ordered queso- the large serving cost $8 and we were disappointed to taste the familiar Velveeta and Rotel combination (still tasty, but I could make it at home). We shared a flight, and the same glass was used for each tasting, so we occasionally had overlapping flavors which can throw off the experience.

The wine was decent- I love sweet wines but even some of the fruity ones were too much for me! Everyone has different tastes for their wine, though. It appeared on a Saturday they were understaffed and one of the employees said they usually have more assistance. We did have to wait for service at times, but two of the employees apologized...

Worst experience ever. Group of 16 with a 1:00 reservation. Only maybe a half dozen other customers. An hour and a half later some of our group still had not received their food. The queso is supposed to have beef, but it was almost nonexistent. I mentioned to the cashier as I paid out that it was disappointing. Two minutes later, the cook storms out of the kitchen and literally wants to argue with me that there was beef in the queso, and when I disagreed, he literally asked me to step outside for a fight. The owner witnessed it and never offered an apology. I wouldn’t go back if...
