Habersham Vineyard- Helen, GA

We have not made it out to Habersham winery yet, but were able to taste some of their wines at Flower and Wine Festival in Dahlonega a few weekends ago.  We really enjoyed their wine.  They were very affordable and enjoyable on a hot spring day.  We bought a bottle of the Signet.  It was light and crisp.  We will definitely be buying more and hope to make it to the vineyard soon to try more!  Next time you are in Helen, go try some wines as well!

Dahlonega, GA- 24th Annual Mountain Flower Fine Art and Wine Festival

We attended the Flower and Wine Festival a few weekends ago in Dahlonega.  We had so much fun!  This was the first time they had wine available as well.  They did a great job setting this all up especially considering how extremely hot and humid it was.   For $10 a piece you could sample 2 wines from 7 different vineyards.  Participating vineyards were Blackstock, Crane Creek, Habersham, Montaluce, Persimmon Creek, Tiger Mountain and Yonah Mountain Vineyards/ Serenity Cellars.   All the vineyards had something great to offer.

There were other things to enjoy as well like flowers and plants for sale as well as arts and crafts booths.  Check out our pictures and don’t miss this next year!
