We stumbled upon Shelton Vineyards about 4 years ago during our annual return trip from Florida, bringing my parent's car back to Ohio. It was the perfect stopping point; we stayed at the Hampton Inn owned by Shelton Vineyards (the nicest Hampton Inn you will ever stay in). We now make it an automatic stop whenever we are traveling to... More

My husband and I decided to take a little detour on our way to back to Charlotte and we stopped at the Shelton Vineyard. We were very pleasantly surprised by the beauty of the landscape! Small lakes, little waterfalls, beautiful huge weeping willow trees.. just gorgeous. Lucky for us, admission was free due to a Corvette Car Show and there... More

We took the wine tour, which included tasting and a souvenir glass, as well as lots of information about winemaking. We got to try a couple of different vintages of some of their wines, and it was really interesting to compare what a difference a year's harvest can make. We ended up buying several bottles, and we'll go back. More

You will feel like you are in Napa Valley here. I love the views of rolling hills with vinaeyards on them. The building design and landscape is really top quality. Just atmosphere alone is awesome at Shelton's. But they also have a restaurant with a top chef who has been there for several years now. The wine is great quality... More

We have been to Shelton Vineyards a handful of times. The property is beautiful and they have some great wines. We took a tour, led by Ryan Pruitt, and it was by far the best one yet! Lots of great info! After your tour and tasting you can purchase a bottle of wine and stroll about the property, relax in... More

The vineyard and winery are beautiful. The landscaping is amazing. Alongside the road leading to the winery, there are rose bushes planted at the start of each row of grapes! The wines are outstanding. We have been to many wineries, and it is unusual for us to like a majority of the ones we try in a single tasting of... More

We usually stop at the Harvest Grill for dinner on the yearly trip to Pittsburgh. We stay at the Hampton Inn which has a Wine Bar. We have a great meal and then on the way back south we stop there for lunch and then hit the winery. Every thing is first class. More
