Visitors who are looking to spend some quality time in the lap of luxury should not miss Childress Vineyards. The winery is the brainchild of Richard Childress, famed NASCAR driver and car owner, who parlayed his growing passion for fine wines, which he had the opportunity to experience during his racing career, into a beautiful vineyard. Guests are in for a treat when they step into the simply stunning Italian Renaissance stone and stucco winery, with its ornate terra cotta roof and opulent interiors.
The Vineyard offers tours of the wine production center, where visitors will get to see, hear, smell, and taste the winemaking process. The lovely Bistro features fresh, organic foods and homemade pasta, a delightful Sunday brunch and wine menu, and boxed lunches for diners in a hurry. Guests should check out the gorgeous winery store, absolutely full of fine wines and gourmet goodies.
