We Are Kentucky Proud!

October 10th, 2008

Kentucky Proud is the “buy local” initiative of the Kentucky Department of Agriculture.  Five years ago, Kentucky Proud had about three dozen members.  According to Kentucky’s Commissioner of Agriculture, today more than 1,300 farmers, processors, retailers, restaurants, farmers’ markets and Kentucky state parks are members of this wonderful program.  And I’m proud to say that Elk Creek Vineyard’s is one such member! 

Here is a list of our Kentucky Proud Wines:

  • 2006 Crazy Elk Blush

  • 2006 Vidal Blanc

  • 2006 Sweet Owen Red

  • 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon

  • 2005 Red Table Wine

  • 2006 Chardonnay

  • 2006 Riesling

Buying Kentucky Proud is easy, just look for the label.  Their secret ingredient is the hard work and dedication of Kentucky’s farm families.  Find out why “nothing else is close”!

Elk Creek Vineyards + Sara Evans = Fantastic!

October 1st, 2008

If you didn’t make it out to Elk Creek Vineyards this past Saturday, you missed one heck of a show on our outdoor stage!  As you know, I had been looking forward to this concert for a while and believe me Sara Evans did not disappoint!  The two opening acts that were on stage before her (Darryl Worley and Zach Simpson and the Van Murals) added the perfect beginning to the night. 

The last concert my husband and I went to at Elk Creek Vineyards, we got VIP tickets and enjoyed a night of pampering at the winery.  The food, the wine and being able to sit on the winery deck overlooking the amphitheater was a great way to enjoy the concert.  However, for the Sara Evans concert we decided we’d try something different and bought tickets in the gold seats that are down in front of the stage.  It was so much fun to “people watch” before the concert started.  You feel like you’re right in the middle of things and I loved it.   Once the concert started everybody was up on their feet and enjoying the show. 

So next time when you’re thinking about going to one of our fantastic outdoor concert events, it doesn’t matter whether you’re in the VIP section, Reserved Seats or whether you brought you own chairs to lounge about in the lawn.  You’re guaranteed a great concert, delicious food and wine, friendly people and not a bad seat in the house!    Come on out and enjoy!
