Open since May 2020, the Tesnatee River Winery and Meadery is a farm-to-table winery and meadery that grows 100% of its fruit and honey for its wines and meads.

Sample the handcrafted wines and meads while enjoying complimentary artisan bread with every tasting!

 

Tesnatee River Winery and Meadery

Although the next-door Allison’s Honey & Vineyard has been producing local honey for North Georgia for decades, the recent addition of the Tesnatee River Winery and Meadery gives visitors another way to enjoy locally crafted products.

Visit the tasting room at this boutique winery for their delicious farm-to-table wines, meads, honey, syrups, jams, jellies, and seasonal fruits. Browse the store for more artisanal products like 100% beeswax candles, natural lip balms, and soaps! Enjoy a glass, bottle, or tasting flight of Tesnatee River wines and meads, or enjoy one of the local beer selections.

Leashed dogs are welcome to join you in the casual winery atmosphere.
