Wineries & Vineyards

At Kite Hill Vineyards and Winery, we pride ourselves on being “a little bit of heaven off Route 127.”

Our cozy tasting room and deck overlooking the lake make the perfect place for your wine experience. Whether you are traveling wine country solo, as a couple, or with a group, we are happy to invite you in for a taste of the Shawnee Hills. In addition to wine, we offer seasonal selections such as our “always in season” wine slushies, apple cider sangria, and hot spiced wine when the weather gets chilly. You never know what you might find when you come to Kite Hill. Small snacks are available for purchase (cheese, sausage, crackers), and picnic baskets are welcome. Make us a stop on the trail or your destination for the afternoon.
