Drop by our spacious tasting room and experience the warmth of the Stockwell Cellars community. Enjoy live music and local food vendors every Friday. Check our calendar for details on performers, artists, special events, and more.
Wine tasting at Stockwell Cellars is a seated experience, so children will need to remain at the table with their parents. At no time should a child be unaccompanied or unsupervised. Wine tasting is an adult experience and we need to be sensitive to all of our adult guests.
We are fans of your fur baby, but he or she must be on a lease and controlled by their parent at all times.
It is and has always been our goal to provide every guest that walks into Stockwell Cellars a welcoming, comfortable, educational experience that causes them to appreciate and enjoy wine more when they leave than when they arrived.
Please visit our website to make your reservation. If you should have more than six people in your party, we kindly ask that you please contact us at info@stockwellcellars.com to make your reservation.
