Natchez Trace Wine Trail
Summer's a good time to get out of town. And no better way than a road trip through the beautiful rolling hills of Tenessee. And if you happen upon a winery (or 4), well even better. Follow our map down the Natchez Trace Wine Trail for a vino adventure just outside the city.
Grinder's Switch Winery: Named after the railroad switch for which the town is named, Grinder's Switch Winery contains a cozy tasting room housed in the original log cabin built by owners Joey and Gail Chessor.
