This was the last stop on our wine tour yesterday. We definitely were running late to this winery. I had not even planned to add this winery but our limo company added them. Not sure if they get a kick back or not. A guy that works there called to tell me that b/c we were late, we may or may not be able to do a tasting when we arrived. I TOTALLY understand that. Had we arrived and it was too busy that would have been completely understandable. However, when we arrived there was maybe only 4 other people tasting in the only place. The guy that coordinated our tasting really seemed put out that he had to help us. I even paid for our entire groups tasting up front to assist efficiency. Still each person in the group mentioned he was rude (maybe that's just his sense of humor) the lady who helped us with our tasting ( want to say her name was Carol) was awesome and super friendly!

The wine was delicious so that’s where the 3 stars come into play, but if it were based solely on the service and personality of the employees who seemed like they didn’t want to be bothered to even do their job, it would be a 1...
Read moreI visited Hunt Country Vineyards once in 2019, and I've been ordering my wine from them ever since. They have a great Wine Lovers program that offers discounts for both in person and online purchases. Prices are very reasonable, and shipping is free for bulk orders. Service is friendly and efficient. I live in the Midwest, and I'm always surprised how quickly my orders are filled and delivered. Each box comes with a handwritten thank you note. I love all of their varieties, white, red, and rose, but my personal favorites are Traminette and Cayuga white. I'm very impressed by the large variety of wines Hunt Country has to choose from. In addition to this being a small family business that produces great wine, I love that they promote sustainable farming practices. I recommend their wines and service without...
