Schnebly Redland's Winery

This place is definitely off the beaten path but worth the trip! I always get a group together and make a day in the Redlands. If you can I would recommend getting there early before 11am if you're going on a Saturday. It can get very busy! Also if you're from Miami chances are some of your friends or co workers have been here so borrow their wine glasses to get the wine tasting for $5. Older glasses with Miami on them get you a free . If you like to much while you drink be sure to bring your own snacks as the ones for sale are super overpriced.

We came here during the week and during the day on vacation. I think that coming here on the weekend would be a different experience because there would be way more people (it was pretty empty with only another couple and a group of people seated outside), we could have gone on the tour of the facilities, and it seems like they have some fun stuff going on like music and dancing on weekends. But, despite the fact I wasn't there to see this place at its best, I had a blast and I was so happy being there.

If you bring your own wine glass from a previous visit, you get a discount. The person I came with had glasses for all of us so we were able to do that and make a nice little trip out of it. We came here just for wine tasting and also purchased some cheese and crackers to go along with the wine. The tasting is pretty cheap ($9.95) for 5 tastings.

The ambiance is pretty too. It's fun to take pictures outside by the fountain and inside at the bar.

The service was friendly but there was only one person working the register and the bar so it was a bit slow.

The cool thing about this winery is that none of the wines are made with grapes. And yes, I had no idea that that was possible either....the definition of wine can be broadened to include any fermented fruit beverage...go figure! My favorite wines were the ones made with guava, mango, and lychee (I like sweet wines). I didn't particularly like the idea of avocado flavored wine and so I skipped tasting those.

One person I was with loved the wine so much that she bought two bottles to take home because she couldn't decide which one she liked better.

The parking is not a problem here because there is a lot. The place seemed to be in the middle of nowhere though so if I had been driving I would have made sure to get really good directions as not to get lost.

Each and every time I've visited, I've enjoyed myself. This winery is literally in the middle of nowhere but once you go inside, it's another world.  It's a very chill spot for friends, families, couples, etc. You walk in to see a live band playing and people dancing in sandals. You can bring your own food however they also have BBQ which was pretty tasty I might add. For the most part, this is an outside venue so be sure to bring bug repellant.

As you walk towards the back past the outdoor portion of the venue, you will see the actual winery + brewery where the tastings take place. You get 5 wine samples of your choice for $10 which is NOT BAD. The best wines to try are Guava, Carambola and Lychee then you can purchase bottles, cheese, snacks, etc. I have yet to try the beers but I'm DYING to since they brew it themselves.

Prices for entrance, tastings and bottles are reasonable. On Fridays, they have karaoke. Overall, this is a great place and I can't wait to go back!
