I didn't get to take any photos of this place because the experience was so interactive! This place offers exactly what I want and expect when I visit a winery. I've never been to one where they provide free wine tastings but that was a great service they offered and their wine was delicious! Our host Darlene was knowledgeable and offered recommendations based on our preferences which felt very personalized. This is a wonderful local gem in Indiana. I would love to go again!

Where I presently come from there are no free wine tastings, and it appears even nearby Oliver Winery no longer has free tastings, so enjoy the rare treat of a free wine tasting. The Catawba rosé and Cranberry Apple (non-spiced) were lovely, and the (presently Eclipse labelled) Blackberry will be a treat in the coming months. You can make your way dry to sweet as always, and good luck narrowing down your finds. We liked the quiet of our weekday visit,The labels look dated, but cover such yummy wine. Plain appearing (but perky!) Plum goes well with a basic frozen Costco lasagna, a good change from the usual Cabernet. Since fruit wine tastes like vacation after vacation is over, this is a great stop to find a souvenir. Hand crafted goods are also available (maybe the Gnaw Bone BCW too?), making BCW good fit for this ever crafty tourist town.The host was kind and helpful, recommending timelines to consume our non-grape wines. We'd come back for sure!

Neat spot; and not off the beaten path. It's right there on the main path. Nice tasting room with lots of gift shop items. No place for sitting or hanging out. Appears to be a tasting room only. But definitely a winery to put on on your list.

We stopped here on Valentine's Day. We were passing by and a saw a sign out front that said wine tasting FREE! Really odd because most of the wineries charge for that now. There is a cute little gift shop where they have the wine tasting. The people that were working there were extremely nice and also informed me of a discount if we bought three bottles. We did take advantage of this.We also got a little extra perk because it was Valentine's Day, we received a double fudge dipped Oreo. It was delicious and came from Bloomington Chocolate Company. The winery said they do this every Valentine's Day. Still working on drinking the three bottles of wine but the next time we are down in that neck of the woods we will stop again. We will likely bring home three more bottles.

I've been to their smaller shop in downtown Nashville many times and surprisingly, never to this location even though we drive by it going in and out of Nashville.My better half and I were in the area, headed towards Bloomington. He surprised me by pulling in the BC Winery. He knows how much I love stopping at the one in town so this was a pleasant surprise.We were greeted when we walked in and the staff was pleasant and kind. I was rushing a bit as I knew he wanted to go to an antique shop in Bloomington so this was a grab and go visit.Vista Red - has been a hands down must buy as long as I can recall.Vista White - had a taste and it went on the list.Apple Wine - we had bought some in town this summer and I wanted take a bottle home as part of a Christmas gift. If you like a sweeter, summery wine (that works year round)- I think you'll enjoy this one. Regretted now that we didn't take the Pinot Grigio too - but that leaves reason for another stop in the future :)Wine tasting wise - if you aren't sure what you like - ask the staff. They know the right questions to ask and will find the right match for you.

This was such a charming little visit. We were looking for a spot to grab a glass of wine, throw open our laptops and work for a few hours. Brown County Winery's large patio and easy-to-connect wifi hit the spot. Not to mention the delicious wine that kept us warm enough to work on a patio in 50degree temps. Before choosing a glass of wine or bottle, you can experience 6-8 of their wine samples via a complimentary wine sampling. Their offerings vary from sweet to dry with mulled wine thrown into the mix for the cooler months. I especially enjoyed their Merlot and opted for a glass. The mulled apple wine reminded me of "Apple Pie moonshine"...ah, take me back. The tasting room is cozy and features a horseshoe shaped bar for multiple tastings to occur at once. You're also able to see the wine production in the back through large glass windows. Parking is easy and Brown County Winery is only two miles down the road from the heart of Nashville, Indiana. Enjoy your visit!

What a wonderful experience on the Indiana Uplands wine trail. Ben took such good care of us!! They allow you to taste up to 8 wines. They have a wonderful list of wines from dry to sweet and some fortified wines that were amazing. My husband loved the warm spiced red wine and I fell in love with the strawberry but there were so many other noteworthy choices.

We stopped here on a whim during our little YelpLouINvasion. We had planned on stopping at Bear Wallow Distillery but turns out they weren't going to be open for another hour and a half. But the beaming open sign hanging from the Brown County Winery was a beacon of joy! (Ok...it wasn't beaming. It was just the magical 4 letters "Open.")Tastings are complimentary, and you get to choose up to 8 wines to sample.There is a lot to choose from. I prefer semi-sweet to sweeter wines, and they have some tasty fruit wines. On top of that, they have plenty of dry options as well as some port and cordials. Something a little special on their part!The tasting hosts were super friendly and easily handled not only different tasting requests from several people in the same group, but they easily juggled and served an overflowing bar of thirsty wine lovers! I was impressed how smoothly it went and how quickly we were able to get our wine sippin' on!The bottles of wine are very affordable and they have a deal for $2 off when you buy three, which certainly sweetens the pot!If you are in Brown County, I highly recommend a stop at this winery!

This past weekend I ventured to Bloomington, Indiana for the first time with a group of girlfriends. Along the way we stopped at a couple of wineries, and Brown County Winery was one of them. And I really enjoyed it! It's a small winery, but there are plenty of wines to choose from. The menu is extensive, and it was right up my alley, since it included lots of sweet and fruit wines to sample. We each did a tasting, which was complimentary. You can choose 6-8 wines to sample, and of course I chose 8 - duh! Who would opt for two less wines? In addition to the tastings, we lucked out in that they were having an open house that we were able to take part in. They had the back portion of the winery opened up for walk-through and viewing, and they had complimentary snacks and festive holiday decor. We also each tried the Hot Mulled Wine and Spiced Red Wine (which was also served hot) and both were awesome! I would definitely recommend them both for the holiday season! The staff was friendly and inviting, and the guy who did our tasting answered any questions we had (specifically in regards to the differences in the ports and dessert wines). There's also a gift shop with lots of wine accessories, and local goods, in case you're in the market to pick up gifts during your visit. If you're in the area, or even just passing through, I would definitely recommend stopping to check out Brown County Winery!
