Friday Night Guided Wine Tasting

Our signature Friday night, family-style wine tasting experience with music, wine trivia and good fun under our garden tent!

Time: 7 PM-9 PM
Format: Guided Wine Tasting/Large Group
Wine Selections: Three

Some Friday evenings are worth the drive.

Norwood Vineyard is a family-owned working vineyard tucked into Jonesboro, Georgia about 25 minutes south of Downtown Atlanta. We’ve been tending this land for generations, and a once a month we open our doors and invite people in to slow down, pull up a chair, and share something worth tasting.

Legacy Tasting is our guided wine tasting series and it’s a little different from what you might expect. Every first Friday of the month, we gather a small group of guests under our Garden Tent in the vineyard for a tasting of three Southern wines. Small-batch. Thoughtfully chosen. Each one tied to a maker whose story is worth knowing. We travel the region through every pour, from Georgia to the Carolinas to Virginia and beyond, introducing you to the winemakers doing something real in Southern wine country.

This is not a tasting for the wine expert. There’s no sommelier, no pressure, no wrong answers. It’s a Friday evening in a southern vineyard with family-style seating, good conversation, and wine that might just surprise you. Sweet, bold, fruit-forward. Every month is different, and that’s the point.

Fridays feel like a festive night under a tent with wine and new friends! Whether you’re coming solo, with a partner, with friends, or making it a group night out you’ll feel right at home from the moment you arrive.

What’s included:
A guided tasting of 3 featured Southern wines focused on muscadine varietals and an evening on the vineyard you’ll want to repeat.

Coming as a Group?
Small groups are always welcome. Seating is family-style, with eight guests per table, so we're unable to reserve tables for groups. Because this is one of our busiest nights, we recommend arriving together if you'd like to sit together.

Celebrating Something?
We love a good celebration! Let us know if you're here for a birthday or special occasion, and we'll give you a special shoutout, and maybe even a serenade. Because Friday nights are one of our most popular events, outside food and cakes aren't permitted.

The Legacy Tasting is a guided experience, and guests come to hear the story behind each pour and enjoy an evening together. We simply ask that celebrations leave room for everyone to enjoy the night.
