Wine News:
There is always time for a glass of wine. Be sure to stop by the tasting room for a taste of what's currently available, including our Wapatuli. Wapatuli is our version of Sangria. Now serving in two sizes (small for $3 and large for $6). It's a secret recipe but the base is a red wine made right here at Sleepy Creek and it's served over ice with fresh fruit. It's not too sweet but just sweet enough to be fruity and refreshing.
Harvest is expected to begin August 13 and probably last off and on through Sept 12 or so. If you want to be in on the action and help harvest, become a Purple Finger Club member. For your time and efforts, you will get a "bunch" of thanks...discounts, a t-shirt, food, beverages and more! To receive the exclusive invitations to help, send info@sleepycreekvineyards.com an email and say, "I want to be a Purple Finger." Not sure if you are on the list? Send us an email to check. There is no obligation to volunteer, how much or little you volunteer is all up to you, and there is no experience necessary. Thanks in advance for your support during this busy time.

It’s country. It’s rock. It’s jazz. It’s bluegrass. It’s swing. It’s interstellar folk music...however you want to label it, there is no mistaking the incredible musical talent. Wine, art and music, it's unique at Sleepy Creek!
Tasting Room news:
We have a few new items for sale...wine bottle holders and racks, cork cages, wire bottle and glass holders and more!
Our beer selection of Goose Island beer right now includes Summertime, Bourbon County Stout and Sofie. We also have a few Demolition left. New beers coming soon.
Wieners & Wine is every Friday from 5 - 8 PM, weather permitting. Ugh, it's a bit hot for a fire but we aren't letting that stop us! We fire up the campfire and provide hot dogs, the fixin's and marshmallows for you to roast around the fire. Yum! Which wine or beer will you have with your dog?
Art News:
The People's Choice Award for the 2010 Sow's Ear Challenge goes to Bonnie Taylor for her City Night Scape. She won by a landslide! Bonnie is Joe's mom but honestly, we abstained from voting! It truly was the people's choice. Next year's theme: Metal Containment Devices.
