fox winery

We stumbled upon this shop while walking around Helen. The wine was very good. We enjoyed the Muscat and took home a few bottles.

Several wines to try with several different varieties. Free tasting but tips are expected. We bought one bottle of wine as well. Also has a small gift shop area with some interesting gift items. Quite trip. Definitely recommend stopping in!

I love foxes, so I had to stop in for fox wine! They offer 3 free wine samples in little plastic cups. Very different from other wineries, but it makes sense considering it's in the middle of a busy area which can be packed with people breaking things. It's sort of an outpost from the actual winery, so they were out of several wines or didn't have them available for tasting because they wouldn't open another bottle. The real winery is further East somewhere, and it would probably have the more traditional experience. All of their wines are sweet, which my husband and I like, so we thought they were all delicious. The bar lady was super friendly. My only complaint is that they didn't have anything with their name on it I could buy. I REALLY wanted fox wine glasses to go with my raccoon glasses! They are attached to a little gourmet shop, so you could get some food, too.

Free tasting samples for any three you pick. Mostly very very sweet wines with strong flavors. An excellent sweet red called captains choice. Neat collection of cork keepers, bottle stoppers and venetian glass flutes and stemware! Bought a cute cork keeper and a bottle of captain's choice. Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful.
