Douglas Vineyards

Reviewed By TAuser8122020

My wife and I had a few hours without the kids and this is very convenient. It is small but a neat little place. The tastings are $8 and you can add a tray with cheese, pepperoni, crackers and olives for $5. You get to try 6 wines and the categories are about a dozen fruit wines, 3 muscadine wines, a red that is listed by itself, dry wines-a white, Cabernet, Merlot and a Malbec and a white blend and a red blend plus a seasonal wine which was pumpkin spice. Douglas was not there but his wife was fantastic and the young men were as well. They also have wine slushees. The fruit wines are excellent (bought Blackberry) if you like those, the Carlos muscadine (bought) was fantastic and I also bought the Cabernet and Merlot as well. Great experience, phenomenal service (so friendly and after tasting even asked if there were any we wanted to try that we couldn’t). If you are only a high end wine person then maybe not you but for everyone else please visit.

The Gem Theatre is a great theatre in downtown Kannapolis that gives you an old school feel while in a giant, newer theatre.
