    First of all, I love the state of Georgia, and second thank you so much for letting me know about this hidden gem. I had no idea that this place existed. I’ve visited Georgia countless times. What an interesting concept of having wine tasting in a cave. That is brilliant. I’ve done cave tours in Tennessee, but never, ever with wine! The pictures are beautiful and this would be a glorious place to have a wedding. I must ask, have you ever been there? I am definitely going to ask my husband if he would be up to it for our next vacation. Thank you again. I completely love it.
