Buckhorn Creek Vineyard began with our purchase of 30 acres which lies a few hundred feet from the north west shores of Kentucky Lake. This is a very popular area for tourism with multiple marinas, campgrounds, hotels, and local attractions.
We planted our first grapes in 2015 and today we harvest Chardonnay, Riesling, Cayuga, Cabernet Sauvignon, Baca Noir, St. Vincent and others. Our wines include dry and semi sweet reds, and dry and semi sweet whites.
One of our best selling wines is our Tornado Red, which is our Cabernet Sauvignon aged in Kentucky bourbon barrels. Stop by and visit us for a flight, glass or bottle of wine.
Sweet Sunset
The Sweet Sunset: Is a Sunset from our Vineyard. It is a Isabella Grape with notes of Strawberry Lemonade and foxy taste. The Sweet sunset is a refreshing drink in the Summer with a spritzer adding a 7-Up or Sprite or make into a slushy.
Raspberry Riesling
Our harvest Riesling mixed with a delightful mix of Raspberries. This dry wine gives a fragrant smell of raspberries with a mix of pear and apple notes.
BCV Good Neighbor
This dry wine is a definite welcome to the neighborhood. A Breanna grape with light and refreshing with notes of citrus, pineapple and peach. This wine has become a favorite. You will find this one in your local Liquor store. |
