The Winery Mercer House

While on a road trip, my fiancé and I stopped in at this wonderful winery on a whim. The place wasn’t very busy at 4pm on a Wednesday but that just meant that we got a one-on-one experience with the owner/wine-maker/bartender Shannon. He gave us a wonderful explanation of all the wines we tasted and it was definitely a highlight of South Carolina for us! The next time we come, we’ll be doing a tour of all the vineyards as well. Tours should be scheduled in advance, which you can do on the website! Thank you Shannon for letting us spend the afternoon with you, and we hope to be back soon!

Amazing and delicious unique wine. I say unique because the owner as he explains makes wine like no other winery would ever attempt as his wine is not similar to what everyone is used to in retail. This delicious wine is around limited because he simply cares about quality and not quanity. Thank you for a great time we all enjoyed your wine especially the ancient wine variety.

Visited without any preconceptions and or expectations and that's how I would recommend doing the wines at Mercer house. You will likely never find most of the wines made here anywhere else. Some for good reason and others disappointingly. Definitely worth a trip to try something "different". Make sure to try the blueberry jalapeño and bloody hell mary. Both were excellent!

The Mercer House Winery had a vendor table at the Lexington Wine Walk last weekend. I went with a group of 6 girls and we were all excited to try the Coffee Wine that Mercer House offered. We waited in line for 15 minutes or so...this was the longest line at the event. When we got to the front the man pouring the wine was so rude. I was trying to explain to him that I live right around the corner from the winery and I had heard great things about the Sunday Live Music, wanted to get a group together for a tour, etc. He basically told me to stop talking that he was busy and the line was long. The coffee wine was good, the sip that he poured me, and when I asked for a little more he told me to go to the back of the line. COMPLETE JERK. I have shared my experience with others who were there that day and they were all of similar opinions. If that man was an employee he needs to be fired and if he was the owner I will never patronize his business. I myself am a small business owner as well. I would never treat a client or customer that way.
