Helpful Tips for Visiting & Purchasing

  • Our LaOtto winery's hours are Sunday-Thursday 11 AM to 8 PM and Friday & Saturday 11 AM to 9 PM.

    Our Nashville location's hours are Sunday-Thursday 11 AM to 6 PM and Friday & Saturday 11 AM to 9 PM.

  • LaOtto: Reservations are highly recommended, especially for live music events. When music is held outside on our stage (weather permitting), the upper-level tables offer table service for food and beverages, while all other seating is first come, first served. Indoors, tables are more limited, so to secure your spot in the Back Tasting Room during colder months, we suggest reserving in advance. Reservations are free and can be made any day of the week on our website. 

    We also have wood-burning and gas fire pits available for booking, which are 21+ only. During our Summer Concert Series, these fire pits come with four complimentary wristbands for the concert. Availability is limited, so if you have a specific date in mind, don’t wait to book! 

    For larger parties, consider reserving a private area; our event coordinator would be happy to assist you. You can find more information through The Event Center at Country Heritage Winery.

  • LaOtto: Our full kitchen is open 7 days a week, with a slightly scaled-down menu on weekends to ensure the best service during our busiest times. The kitchen opens daily at 12 PM and closes 30 minutes before the winery. You can find our food menus under the Menus tab on our website.

    Nashville: Snack options, including charcuterie boards and Debrand's chocolate, are available seven days a week.

  • LaOtto: We offer several tasting options for you to enjoy. Guided tastings at our Tasting Counter are available Sunday through Thursday until 5 PM, but not on Fridays after 5 PM or Saturdays. These guided tastings include five 1 oz pours for $8. Additionally, you can purchase wine flights at any time, featuring four 2 oz pours for $10. No reservations are required!

    Nashville: Tastings are available daily. Tastings will be available at the Tasting Counter or by wine flights any day and time the winery is open.

  • For both of our locations, we welcome the entire family at Country Heritage Winery, no matter how young! However, we do have some rules for everyone to follow to ensure safety. In accordance with the law, anyone under 21 must be accompanied by a parent. Children must never be unaccompanied, within arm's reach of parent. In addition, children cannot be running around the property, through the vineyards, or on our landscaping features. We encourage bringing board games, but absolutely no footballs, soccer balls, or any other kinds of balls. Individuals under 21 cannot be at our Wood-Burning Firepits, Igloos, or at our Tasting Counters. 

    Your cooperation with these guidelines will ensure that we can continue to be a family-friendly destination.

  • In accordance with FDA and Board of Health regulations, we cannot allow outside food, beverages, or containers of any kind on the premises. This includes coffees (Starbucks, etc.), water bottles purchased elsewhere, personal water bottles or containers, thermoses, juice, milk, snacks, coolers, and the like. We do have a selection of snacks, water bottles, and Coca-Cola products available for purchase every day.

    Even if you have dietary restrictions or other preferences, we cannot allow outside food, beverages, or containers on winery property. We do have select gluten free and vegetarian options available.

  • We have options beyond wine for those who want to explore a variety of products. Our onsite distillery, Backroads Distilling Company, crafts premium spirits, including vodka, white rum, and gin. In the future, we’ll also offer aged rum, bourbon, and brandy. We also offer locally sourced and produced ciders on draft and in cans.  Select beer options are available during special events and occasions.

    If wine isn’t your preference, we still encourage you to do a tasting! Our team can often help you find something you'll enjoy. Our variety of high-quality, self-grown and produced wines is an experience you won’t want to miss!

  • While we adore our four-legged friends, our insurance policy restricts pets on the premises. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. However, registered service dogs are welcome.
