Redman’s Farm and Winery

This was our last stop on the Backroads Wine Trail! Got my passport stamped (last one on my list) and my prize! I received a stone coaster for completing the trail. It is very nice!!!
All I have to say that this was a different and most unique winery I’ve been too.
Redmans’ Farm established in 1941, is a 5^th generation working farm, nestled in the valley of southern Kenton County Kentucky, bordering the Licking River. There you will find animals, fresh produce, and lots of kids playing around the area.
I would not have thought this would be a winery pulling up. We went on a Saturday afternoon and it was extremely packed, however we received great service. The lady working the counter was so nice and had great humor. The tasting room was very country and laid back. I thought it was okay, but maybe because I did not like the tables and chairs.
My friend did the wine tasting which was only $ 5.00 (unlimited and any on the list). She tried mostly whites and had me sample a couple. They were too sweet for me.
This is what they sell:
Strawberry
–Sweet Strawberry Wine
–Semi Sweet Strawberry Wine
–Sweet Blackberry Wine:
–Semi Sweet Blackberry Wine
White
–SWEET WHITE TABLE WINE
–DRY WHITE TABLE WINE
Red
–Sweet Red Table Wine
–Dry Table Red Wine
Apple
–Sweet Apple Wine
–Semi Sweet Apple Wine
Okay… here’s what I found interesting. They had wine slushies! OMG! This must be a popular kentucky local thing because I’ve never heard of it. The last winery (Atwood Winery) had it and I was skeptical on trying it. The lady gave us a sample, and I hate to say that I actually LOVED it! There was strawberry and blackberry wine flavors. My friend and I got the Blackberry. Was hooked that I got a cup to enjoy for only $ 5.00. :) Usually wineries offer Oyster Crackers for customers, not this place! They serve Cheez-​it! Don’t get me wrong, I am addicted to that snack, but never thought it would go with a wine pairing. I was not complaining because I kept eating them!
This whole experience was very interesting. You just have to come here and find out for your self. I was not too fond of their wines (way too sweet for my palate), but loved the slushies (yeah, i know… I’m a sell out to the wine snobs/​winos). It’s a must try when you are here! Locals seem to love their fruity wines and it’s what sells the most in that area.
But I do want to say Thank you for the excellent service and I did have fun! I left with a happy face, let’s just put that way :)
I don’t want to give this place a three star rating but 3.5.
