  • Sunday Concert Series: Hug It : Cancelled due to rain and the heat index

    Turtle Run Winery

    Another new band for Turtle Run Winery.  I know, what?!?!  Huh?  Who are they?  Uh huh.  Yeah, I know exactly who this group is.  Some familiar names include Don Watson, Robert Marston, Kara Kelton and Kevin Kelton.  I can guess what they will play, but think great rock and pop from the 70's and 80's.  They have all played out here many times and a lot of times together.  You'll recognize them. Our concerts are free and they are family friendly. You are welcome to bring food. We are normally selling grilled fare to benefit various programs from Special Olympics to Providence High School Swim and Dive. No other alcohol permitted. All concerts are outside. Wine tastings during concerts are outside. Wine can be purchased inside or outside. Cheese and crackers are available inside the winery. Grilled fare is sold on the east side of the winery behind the band. We have complimentary plastic cups. We sell wine glasses or you can bring your own wine glass. We suggest that you bring a lawn chair. Lastly, if you would like to borrow an ice bucket for your wine, great. We have them available, just please return them to the winery or the tent before you leave. Cheers, Laura, Jim, Max and Lauren, Joe, Catherine, and our wonderful staff.

  • Tour De Pork Bike Ride and a Concert with Arianna and the Bourbon Britches

    Turtle Run Winery

    Hello Cyclists and Music Lovers and both! This is the day we host "Tour De Pork Bike Ride" at Turtle Run Winery.  Choose either the 25 or the 50 mile ride through our very scenic Harrison County, the county with perhaps the best roads in Indiana.  No joking there.  I literally don't think we have a single pothole! The ride begins at 8:00, and when you return, yes indeed there is a nice meal awaiting you.  Also, you will be greeted by the amazing sounds of Arianna and the Bourbon Britches, headlined by Anna Blanton, who has appeared on America's Got Talent. Not a cyclist.  No problem.  Come on out anyway.  The music is from 11:00 to 3:00.  Oh yeah, the um...well...And part of the heading. Hmmm...Should I type this?  Yeah, why not.  Rumor has it that somewhere on the course, there might, just might be a refreshing SAG stop with...um...complimentary beer.  It's probably the last SAG stop (hint, I know it is!) If you would like to sign up for the bike ride, here is the link:http://www.friendsofthegreenway.org/le-tour-de-pork.html

  • Sunday Concert Series: Eric and the Iconics: final concert for the band!

    Turtle Run Winery

    You've seen Eric Kerr out here with The Rigby's and other bands.  Remember Brutally Handsome?  Eric and the Iconics drift us back into some good time "classic music." From Pop, Rock, Motown, R&B favorites and "seldom heard" gems of the '60s and '70s. From The Temptations to Al Green to ELO; From Etta James to Dusty Springfield to The Staples Singers. They'll take you back one song at a time.  You'll be able to relax and dance.  Fabulous vocals, male and female, great musicians throughout.  You'll be truly impressed with the ranges of the song and the tightness of the talent.

  • Blast from the Past! The Snow Recovery Date (s)

    Turtle Run Winery

    Have you ever wondered if that old axiom is true, do wines get better with age?  Well, find out this weekend at Turtle Run Winery as we are set to host our annual "Blast from the Past".  With 25 years of winemaking, we have a section in the winery reserved for older wines, dry, sweet, red and white. We know of no other winery that hosts an event like this!!! This is your opportunity to sample and savor older Turtle Run Winery wines and purchase some too!  The "wine list" will constantly change over the course of Saturday and it will reset again on Sunday, so literally both days will have different offerings.  And yes, we will sell out of wines constantly.   If you find a wine you really crave and you see someone else who likes the same wine, please share what is available for purchase as all wines are limited in quantity. We want to see how our wines are aging, that's part of it.  And sometimes we age wine just because we knew the wine was great and wanted to try it years later.  We do know, or have a very solid hypothesis that wines with minimal intervention (fining agents, added tannins, liquid oak, things like that) will age the best and we make our wines with minimal interventions.  Always have There is a very reasonable tasting fee of $10 which will give you access to taste more than 40, probably more than 50 wines.  Wine prices will have zero inflation, so the prices will mirror the prices on our wine list.  Quantity discounts by mixing and matching any of our wines will be the same as they have always been, 10% for 6 bottles, 15% for a case, 20% for two cases or more. Folks enjoyed last weekend and we received quite a few requests to have it again this weekend due to last weekend's snow.  Wine not, right?
