seaofred92 Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 On Sunday after the Husker game four of us will be sticking around and are hoping to hit a winery or two around Lincoln. Anyone have suggestions on the best places to go? 1 Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 I think there is one in Neb City...Soaring Wings? Quote Link to comment
Enhance Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 James Arthur Vineyard is probably the most popular. It's about 20 minutes away from the city. I took my wife (then girlfriend) there quite a few times when we lived in Lincoln. 1 Quote Link to comment

Ulty Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 1. I like dark dry red wines, but it seems that all Nebraska wineries specialize in sweet wines, whites, or rose`. So they all kinda suck if you ask me. Nebraska climate can't get the kind of red grapes you need, I guess. 2. At first glance, I thought that this thread was asking where to find the best wieners. 2 Quote Link to comment

We hit a few up here in MN and James Arthur is still my favorite. Quote Link to comment
NM11046 Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Is California too far for you? Quote Link to comment
NUinID Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Not that this helps but in and around Boise, Idaho where I live there is a strong and growing group of winery's. I have one about 2 miles from where I live. Not a huge wine fan, but the owner is also a great chef, so they serve great food and the view is spectacular. They have bands playing a couple of times a month during the summer. Good times. Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 It's funny to me that there are multiple wineries around Lincoln. Quote Link to comment

Stoysich for all your weiner needs although I've also heard good things Wahoo Locker. Nebraska Weinery had some terrific hot dogs during the CWS. I must've gone there at least 3 times.

Nebraska climate can't get the kind of red grapes you need, I guess. Our growing season isn't long enough to produce reds with any character, so the local growers stick with white. They produce some reds, but they have no flavor, and because they're small batch, almost boutique wines, they cost a lot. As much as I want to support local growers, I can't bear their stuff. If you want ambience, James Arthur up by Raymond is nice. I haven't been, but I've heard good things about Soaring Wings, about 45 minutes from downtown Lincoln near Springfield.

Stumpy1 Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Its not close to Lincoln but if you get the chance, go to Prairie Berry Winery in Hill City, SD. The food is awesome and there wasnt a wine I didnt like. Quote Link to comment
