Wine Tasting Experiences
Wine Tasting at the Vineyard
Our Wine Tasting Series is our way of keeping record of good wine, great wine makers across the south, the love poured into the craft, and the culture that often goes unseen.
A few times a month, we open the vineyard for wine tasting and highlight one of our favorite wine makers.
Our Wine Tasting Experiences
We believe wine is best enjoyed in good company and beautiful surroundings. That's why we offer a range of tasting experiences designed to meet you wherever you are — from the festive energy of our monthly Friday Night wine events and special holiday celebrations, to the intimacy of a guided Sunday vineyard tour with a glass in hand, to the rare luxury of a fully private tasting experience reserved entirely for your group.
No matter the occasion, there is a place for you here among the vines.
Not sure which experience is right for you?
Here is how they feel different.

Advance Ticket + Drop-ins welcome
Event Type: Open to Public/Self-Guided
Price: $45/person includes 3 wine flight
Some nights don’t need a guide. Wine Garden is one of them.
Tucked into a quiet corner of the vineyard, this is a slower, self-directed evening. Pull up a seat under the umbrellas or tent, enjoy your own pace through a three-wine tasting flight, and get to know the wine through the stories at your table.
Every bottle has a name and a reason behind it, and here you’ll find it printed right where you’re sitting. No lecture, no schedule. Just good wine and an evening that unfolds however you want it to. It’s like a slower version of a happy hour.
We keep it easy on purpose. Flatbread, made simple. Music low in the background. And every so often, we’ll ask what you think, a new flavor, a wine we’re considering, a name we’re deciding on. This is where the vineyard listens as much as it pours.
Weather permitting, we’re outside under the sky. If it rains, we bring the same evening in under our weather-proof tent, string lights and all.

This is our signature Friday night- the one we look forward to all month!
Once a month we gather under our garden tent pavilion, family style, and spend two hours tasting three wines we have hand selected just for that evening. We tell you who made the wine, where it came from, and why it matters. Sometimes the winemaker joins us. Sometimes it is one of us leading the group. Either way you are getting the story behind the bottle alongside complimentary light bites, a little wine trivia, and the kind of Friday night energy that makes you forget you had a long week. You choose your seat. We choose the wine. Come solo, bring a date or bring your entire friend group — everyone is welcome at this table. -

Summer at the Vineyard | Wine Tasting Events
Sunday Pour & Tour
Join us on the 2nd and 4th Sunday each month for a relaxed walk-through of the vineyard followed by a guided tasting of three Southern small-batch wines. This is perfect for an after-work evening or an early date night. We’ll take you through the vines, share a little of the story behind what’s growing, then settle in for a tasting under the tent. Seating is limited and reservations are required.
The Vineyard Tour
Your reservation begins with a small group guided 20-minute walking tour of Norwood Vineyard. You’ll hear the history of this land, learn about the muscadine vines, and walk the rows that have been tended by our family for 75 years. It is unhurried, personal, and unlike anything you’ll find at a traditional winery.
The Wine Tasting
Following the tour, guests are invited to settle in and enjoy a self-guided tasting of three pours from our curated wine selection. Each flight features muscadine varietal wines procured from Roberts Vineyard or a specially selected offering - all wines rooted in Southern tradition and Georgia soil.
Artisan Bread Basket
As you start your tasting, we provide the table with warm bread from a local baker and pastry chef we love, served family-style alongside a rotation of jams and butter spreads sourced from local farms — each one chosen to complement the wines you’re tasting that day.

Picture this: you’ve spent the morning wandering our Farm Girl Market at the Vineyard with fresh flowers in one hand, something wrapped in kraft paper in the other and now it’s time to sit down for a minute.
That’s what the Wine Garden is for.
Tucked under our pavilion for the day, the Wine Garden is a reserved escape from the market crowd. Your own seat, with a specialty wine cocktail made just for the occasion, and a few things to take home with you. This isn’t something you’ll find at the bar with everyone else. It’s ours to offer, and only to the people who reserve it ahead of time.
Here’s what’s your Wine Garden Access includes:
A wine cocktail made for the day. A floral wine cocktail, poured into your own keepsake mason jar… yours to keep, and yours alone. Guests without a ticket won’t get this glass, or this drink.
A seat, guaranteed. Reserved seating under the pavilion means you never have to hunt for a place to rest. Come find your spot whenever you’re ready.
A burlap tote for your finds. Because you will find things at this market you didn’t know you needed, and you’ll want something pretty to carry them home in.
Your own custom Farm Girl bandana. Head straight to the Bandana Bar and make one just for you.

A guided tasting of Southern wines, good company & light bites set on a family vineyard 25 minutes south of Atlanta.
Date: Friday, August 7, 2026
Time: 7-8:30 PM
Location: 2441 Highway 138 SE, Jonesboro, GA 30236
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 second 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 long family-style tables, light bites, good conversation, and wine that might just surprise you. Sweet, bold, fruit-forward. Every month is different, and that’s the point.
We keep it intentionally small. Never more than 40 guests. 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, complimentary light bites, and an evening on the vineyard you’ll want to repeat.

What’s included:
A guided flight of wine (three pours), story cards for each wine at your table, warm flatbread, and a seat in the Wine Garden for the evening.

Featured Wine this Season
Featured Winemaker: Dr. Darlene Roberts
Roberts Vineyard · Byron, GA
Our grandfather planted muscadine vines on this land over 75 years ago and they are still growing today. We open our vineyard each year to the community and local winemakers who buy and pick our grapes and craft their own small batch wines from them. But we will be the first to tell you - we are not winemakers. We are something else entirely. We are seekers.
We search high and low, through small towns, back roads, and hidden gems across the South, to find the winemakers who are quietly doing extraordinary work. The ones making small batches by hand, honoring the muscadine grape, and pouring their whole selves into every bottle. Our job is to find them, honor their craft, and make their wine accessible to the Atlanta community that deserves to know them.
This season that winemaker is Dr. Darlene Roberts of Roberts Vineyard in Byron, Georgia. Her muscadine varietals are handcrafted, soulful, and deeply rooted in Southern soil and we could not be more proud to feature her work. Each year we will spotlight someone new. Because the South is full of extraordinary winemakers. And we are just getting started. You’ll find her wines at our tastings, amongst others, and stocked on our shelves.
