The next stop on our little central Arkansas entertainment tour is one of my personal favorites and solely for those above the drinking age (sorry minors). Wineries are one of Arkansas’s hidden gems. They’re not insanely popular but they are absolutely beautiful.
An Enchanted Evening
An Enchanted Evening is one of my favorite local wineries. Its located about 25 minutes outside of Little Rock in whats known as Little Italy. Its also known for being one of the best wedding venues in Little Rock, so obviously its breathtaking. The tasting room sits on the edge of a beautiful mountain, allowing you to gaze at the view while you’re sipping wine. The wine offered is more of your classical wines, therefore they’re mostly dry or semi-sweet. They do offer beers and cokes if you’re not too big into wine! An Enchanted Evening is also on the affordable end. You receive a free tasting of all the wines when you purchase a bottle, and the bottles range from $12-$24. They don’t offer food but you can feel free to bring some out with you, we opted to bring a little cheese, grape, and cracker tray (a wine tasting classic).
Weiderkehr Wine Cellars
Our next winery is a little farther away in Altus, Arkansas but I am going to include it anyways because its a classic. It ran by a Swiss family and includes a wine cellar dating back to the 1880s. Weiderkehr is going to be more of an all day event compared to your other local wineries. One of the coolest parts is their on-theme restaurant. You can find authentic Swiss dishes complete with candlelit tables and beautiful stained glass windows. After your meal you can take a tour of the cellar or go on over to the tasting room. Weiderkehr has wines for ALL taste buds and will be sure to please everyone.
These are just two of the many many wineries to visit in Arkansas. A quick google search will fill you in but some of my other favorites include Post Winery, Bo Brooke Farms River Bottom Winery, and Chateau Aux Arc Winery. Ive included TripAdvisors top 10 ranked wineries and vineyards to help get you started!

Winery’s are pretty cool! We went to one in Branson and my parents did the tasting. My little sister and I were too young but it was still cool to walk around and see how wine is made, where they keep it, etc.

I knew there was a sign on the interstate saying “Arkansas Wine Country” but I didn’t know if any of the places were good.
