Not only are the wines great, but there are wood ducks and koi, every wine gadget imaginable, oils, etc. The most memorable part, however, was being regaled with Dr. Max Rittgers' stories about grapes, South Dakota, Wisconsin, travel in general. He was so interesting! And did I mention great wines?!?

Sadly, we were in Chiefland for my Grandmother's funeral and after the family lunch a few of us went for a wine tasting. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the wines. We ended up bringing some back to Atlanta with us. The Port and Cream Sherry were very good and I bought extras to give as gifts (yes - that good). Worth going out of your way or spending a short time.

Great helpful people here.. loved all the unusual quirky items inside and out.. the lovely wine tasting before you make a selection... I chose the Noble and my sister chose the Port, both are very good.. We drove about 40 miles from Gainesville to check it out and we happy we did ..

Very nice folks let you taste their various wines, sherries and ports, all of which are for sale at very decent prices. The gift store is full of cute and funny gifts. Sit out on the veranda while sipping your wine. The view is very pleasant.

We stopped by on Thanksgiving weekend when we camped in Trenton. We thoroughly enjoyed the visit! In addition to being a winery, the owners incubate and raise wood ducks. The scenery is great and the wine tastes great!

Stop by on our way home from a long weekend. Was greeted by smiles, wine and antiques. Sampled all their wines which I wanted to buy all of but settled for 3 bottles. Gotta go back for the rest! Great accessories too. If you like wine or decorate in a vineyard or wine kinda way this pace is your honey hole!

Loved our tasting and the owner is very obliging. Many other unique gifts available in the store. Recommend this place highly!

Free wine tasting--about 7 wines. The sitting areas outside are sweet: a duck and koi pond, benches, and a garden/bird area. They had baby ducks. Inside is pretty with wood beams and a huge fireplace. Great little wine gift-shop. Surprisingly great find in a small Florida town.

This place was amazing! I had so much fun walking around the property taking pictures of the ducks and all the cute signs. The gentleman who gave me my wine tasting was great! He made me feel very welcomed. Left with two bottles and a wine glass! I will be back next time I camp in the area

If you're looking for a day trip or just driving through this is a neat place to stop. The owners were very friendly and passionate about what they do. When we walked in they offered us free tastings of all of their wines and gave us some history about the business. We ended up purchasing two bottles and enjoyed our time their.

As I do make it to Chiefland once a year, I always go to the Dakotah Winery to get at least a gal. of grape seed oil and a gal. of port wine. The grape seed oil is so good to use in my cooking and to know that the oil is good for my health......the port wine is very light, but pleasant.Rob and his father are some good down to earth people that really make you feel welcomed when you come into their store.Enjoy the wine and relax in Chiefland...."J"PS..read the other reviews on this page....

This small winery in Chiefland, FL is hidden gem set on a beautiful piece of property well worth the drive. As I pulled up the driveway it was evident that they take pride in their facility as it was very clean, decorated to fit with the theme and it felt very genuine. Walking in the front door I was immediately greeted by an employee with excellent customer service skills who gave me some brief directions and allowed me to do my own thing. After looking at their grounds, and checking out the sales floor I was able to try some of their amazing wines which to my surprise was free. So many other wineries charge you to see if you want to buy their product. The samples sizes are perfect for determining what you really like and want to buy, and the prices are excellent. Make sure to try their Blueberry wine! They have a great selection of wine bottle holders, other wine related products, and many jellies and sauces. The beautiful ducks and property out back round out an excellent experience. I really enjoyed my time, and the atmosphere of the whole facility. Highly recommend for the traveling wine lover.

Found this small winery in chiefland Florida. Cute giftshop with a lot of wine products. We decided to do the wine tasting which was a great experience. The man was very knowledgeable and had us laughing. We really liked the blueberry and Carlos wine. What a great place for a girl's visit. There were not that many ducks in the pond a few babies. The koi's were huge and fat.

The people were really nice, wine was good and out back they have a Koi Pond with a goose and wood ducks. Cute gift shop. Worth the stop, nothing like buying local. We were staying at Manatee Springs Campground which we enjoyed. I wasn't far from it.
