Tasting Room UPDATE!

January 19, 2013 By stonefield Leave a Comment

Featured Artist Program! We have started featuring the work of local artists in our tasting room. Our area is rich in talent and we want to showcase that talent and give you the chance to own a unique creation from your local art community! At the beginning of each new showcase, we host an Art Reception where we encourage you to visit the winery, socialize with friends, meet the featured artist and enjoy their wonderful pieces of art. You are welcome to ask questions about the artistic process and will often be able to watch the artist at work. Please check our events tab for the dates and times of upcoming receptions. We invite local artists who would like to participate in our Featured Artist Program to email a brief biography and several photos of your work to michellecone@stonefiieldcellars.com.

Currently our featured artist is Rendie Coleman – Jewelry, Wire Trees, Wire Bottle Wraps, Candle sticks, etc..

“Bottle the Barrel” Program

June 26, 2011 By stonefield Leave a Comment

Exciting News! We have recently conducted another “Bottle the Barrel” event at Stonefield Cellars! The most fabulous Cabernet/Merlot Reserve Blend was offered to some serious Red Wine drinkers who got to bottle their own and add their custom designed label. We had so much fun bottling it up and visiting after the bottling. So how can you get in on this really cool private wine, custom label bottling?
Here’s how it works:

You can either

1: Assemble a group to commit to purchase a barrel’s worth of wine (22 cases minimum) – and do some blending with the winemaker and decide on the final blend that you’ll want to bottle (per bottle price starts at $12.95 and can go up depending on which wines are chosen) – this will need to be done a couple of weeks before bottling – Coordinate with us a bottling date – make it a party! (bring food or hire a caterer)
Make your own labels for the front (we will provide a back label with all the required information)
Show up on the bottle date/time, have a blast doing it, and then enjoy your wine!
A 10% non-refundable deposit is required upon the reservation of a bottling date. Balance is due from each participant at the time of bottling.

2: We will pick the wine and we will set the date – you just commit to purchasing at least a case and then show up to bottle and label and take your wine home with you!

For more information about our next planned “Bottle The Barrel” event or to request a custom blend and date for your group, contact Robert or Natalie Wurz at 336-644-9908.

GROUPON, LIVING SOCIAL,DAILY DEAL, DEAL CHICKEN FAQ’s

June 26, 2011 By stonefield 2 Comments

Have you recently purchased a Groupon, Living Social,Daily Deal,or Deal Chicken Coupon? Here are some FAQs we can help you with:

May I redeem the coupon right away? Yes – as soon as you are able to print your coupon (sent to you by Groupon, Living Social News & Record Daily Deal, or Deal Chicken) you may redeem it during our normal business hours: Thursday – Saturday Noon – 6pm, and Sunday 1-6 pm. Note: Tasting and tours take at least 30-45 minutes, so please arrive closer to 5pm since we close at 6pm.

Do I need to make an appointment? IT DEPENDS….Usually you won’t need to as long you arrive during normal business hours (see above). However, if you are redeeming the coupon during the last two weeks prior to expiration, an appointment is recommended since we tend to be very busy during these times (We suggest that you do not wait until the last two weeks to redeem the coupon). Also, if you are planning on coming with several friends (parties of 6 or more), we ask that you do call ahead so our staff can be prepared to best serve you. And of course if you are coming with a large party, your tasting will take even longer, so please plan on arriving early to enable finishing by closing time.

Do I need to bring a printed copy of my coupon with me? Absolutely yes. We ask that you bring a printed coupon with you because some redemption systems require a code on the printed version that will not be available via a smart phone.

May I bring a third person with me and my friend, even though I am purchasing a deal for two? Yes, they are welcomed to join you. They just won’t be part of the “deal”. Our tastings are offered at $7.00 for 7 wines (non-reserve wines only) or $10 for 7 wines (including any reserves). They will also get a souvenir glass as is customary for our tasting guests. Any glass of wine or bottles purchased will be at our normal prices for those accompanying you outside of the “deal”.

Where are you located? We are in Stokesdale, NC, just north of Greensboro and about 10 miles north of the Piedmont International Airport. The best map to use is the one here on our website – we suggest you click on the Location Tab and print one out….it even shows you where to park!
