Wine with an amazing view? Yes please!The Ridge Winery & Tasting Room knows how to make an afternoon of enjoying wine. I met my family there over the weekend for a fun lunch. The Ridge allows BYOFood, so we brought a spread. And then we bought wine from them. My favorite was the Blackberry Table Wine, which was sweet but balanced. We took over a table on the large patio that overlooks the Ohio River. And man, what a view. There was slight breeze and ample room for everyone to sit, while being socially distant. We watched barges slowly make their way down the river while we chatted and drank. And then inside, The Ridge has a small but fun gift shop. My mom and aunt bought a cheeky glass and T-shirt. The Ridge also offers tastings in case you want to try several fruit wines. I've had better wine in Kentucky/Indiana, but The Ridge's wine plus view and overall atmosphere makes this a must-visit.

A group of us 5 girls were "glamping" up the road and stopped here before heading back to the camper from shopping downtown. This place is wonderful! I loved every wine I tried and brought several bottles home (which were consumed within a week or so). The tasting room is connected to a couple's home but it isn't weird at all (b/c I thought it would be!) It was so enjoyable to taste the wine, chat with the owners (who were hilarious and in love), then buy our glasses of wine to relax on the deck for girl talk and river views. I look forward to coming back and hope to bring my husband for a relaxing afternoon!

The wines were great! The views from the back deck are so awesome and perfect for a nice relaxing day on the river. The merchandise in their store is super fun and adorable. The cheese and cracker plate was a little disappointing....wanted something a little more "fancy" but it did serve its function to have something to munch on. We will be back!

This place! Sipping wine on a gorgeous spring day next to the mighty Ohio River is my idea of heaven! I was lucky enough to visit with a whole busload of my girlfriends, and Greg did a great job serving us our tasting on the deck instead of us crowding the tasting room (as we usually do)! He was so funny and personable which just added to the ambiance. They also have two of the cutest welcoming committee members I've ever seen (two shih-tzus!) by the names of Honda & Toyota. Like many Indiana wineries, they only have a small selection of dry wines but plenty of semi-sweet and sweet! However, the Dam View red is just wonderful since it ages in a bourbon barrel which imparts that wonderful aroma and taste that only bourbon can bring. I think almost everyone in our group brought a bottle of that home! The surrounding area is rural so I kind of wish that the surroundings were a bit better on the non-river side, but if you're focused on the river, you don't really notice! It's a long way from where I live, but hopefully I'll get a chance to return and enjoy again!

COVID meant no tastings but we drove all the way just for the Black Jack wine. Well worth it and we left with a case so that's great!!

I was skeptical when we stopped at a little after 10 and they weren't open like their hours said. It is someone's house with a tasting room on one end. Realizing 10 might be a tad early for wine we headed back to Madison for another winery & a chocolate stop. When we came back we were pleasantly surprised. The tasting room is very nice but the deck overlooking the river is just stunning. It was a cold rainy day so we couldn't enjoy it but I could tell it would have been so nice to sit and enjoy a glass. Now for the wine... they had a few dry wines. They were good decent wines but the semi & the sweets were amazing. We had a really hard time narrowing it down to 12 for our case. While it's hard to pick an actual favorite I think my favorite was the blush that was sweet with a crisp bite at the end

We enjoyed our visit to the ridge winery and tasting room. The view of the Ohio River was gorgeous. It was nice to sit outside on the deck and watch the barges go by. We were sad to learn that there were no grapes or actual vineyards on the property. The staff was friendly, however, and we enjoyed a bottle of country white.

We were greeted by the nicest lady at this tasting room. It was snowing so there weren't a lot of people here. All the wines we tasted were good but my favorite was the Rural Cool Riesling. It wasn't too sweet. I drink mostly dry wines so most Rieslings are too sweet for my taste.This winery is one of the wineries on the Indiana Wine trail.
