The Winery


On the way back from Berea we took a side trip to this winery. I had expected some big professional outfit and found it's store ensconced in what used to be the one room wooden Plato Kentucky Post Office. They had bottles of wine displayed in the pigeon holes. They had started growing grapes and making wine to try to save the family farm. It's a tobacco and cattle farm out in the middle of nowhere, and we had the most delightful talk with the young lady that has the winery, and tasted some of their wine. One bottle just tickled me, so we bought it to bring home. They've named it "Prohibition Repeal Red", because it's the first legal alcohol made in that county since Prohibition was repealed. It's a fairly mild, sweet wine and tastes really good. http://www.sinkingvalleywinery.com/
