The first pours of my mixed wine flight at Accent Cellars

Once you’ve ordered, choose a seat, and your selections will be brought out. We settled at a covered patio table with room for our tasting glasses.

A printed guide on the back of our “Wine Tasting Notes” card offered basic wine-tasting tips, but the QR code included did not work, and we could not access the tasting notes. Having a photo of the counter menu saved on my phone helped me refer back to the descriptions while tasting.

Covered creekside seating at Accent Cellars

We’ve enjoyed both indoor seating and the covered patio. Outside, picnic tables beneath a large tree beside the creek offer another place to settle in, with a close-up view of the changing leaves in fall. 🍂

Some road and nearby equipment noise reaches the outdoor seating area, so indoor seating may be quieter. With soft background music playing, we enjoyed relaxing near visiting leashed dogs and the two resident winery cats.🐕🐈
