Who doesn’t enjoy a little live music and nostalgia mixed into their wine-tasting experience? At Treehouse Vineyards, you can enjoy your wine from the comfort of a treehouse!

Yes, you read that correctly – a treehouse. And to top it off, there are actually three to choose from! While Treehouse Vineyards might not be as fancy as some others on the list, they have a unique setup and a horse named Bailey who likes to eat the grape vines!

Be sure to prepare ahead and book your treehouse overlooking the water!

3. Veronet Vineyards & Winery

Perhaps you prefer the more traditional wine-tasting excursion, and you want to avoid treehouses and llamas. In that case, Veronet Vineyards & Winery is a great place to visit.

Sitting 30 miles west of the Charlotte area in Kings Mountain, NC – Veronet is a quaint winery with great wine and excellent pricing. They have a fantastic backdrop to enjoy your wine tasting, and they have wine slushies!

Elkin Creek Vineyard is generally considered a local favorite in the Yadkin Valley. The vineyard is owned by two families, the White, and the Jeroslows.

As a family-owned vineyard, aside from just wine tastings and wedding events that come standard with most wine excursions, they offer a full kitchen and cabins for renting.

Cool Fact: Yadkin Valley AVA was featured as one of the seven best wine destinations in the WORLD by Men’s Journal.
