Welcome to Wildside Winery your winery near Lexington Kentucky, the airport, and Keenland racetrack! Come join us for a glass of fine wine.  Let us prove to you that Kentucky can compete in wine quality.  Located just south of historic Versailles, Kentucky and just minutes from Lexington, Kentucky our comfortable and charming space is the perfect to relax with others to or just escape to enjoy a glass of your favorite wine.

Wildside Winery has a great selection of wine styles.  We have 9 dry red wines from medium mellow to big and dry.
We have dry white wines including Chardonnay and Seyval Blanc and a dry. sparkling, hard, pear-apple cider.  Wildside Winery specializes in exceptional berry wines such as blackberry, raspberry, and blueberry.  Our style is to have serious, undiluted, pure fruit wines.  We also have a semi-sweet wine called "Sonata".  It is our Riesling style wine - very fruity, smooth and a little sweet.  We have two sweeter wines the fruity Niagara and the smooth and sweet Wild Rose, which is our rose' and is called for when a customer is looking for a white zinfandel or white Merlot.  

Neil Vasilakes is the wine maker at Wildside Winery and he loves making new and interesting kinds of wine.  These unusual wines are often tricky to make and  time consuming.  They are often made in small quantities and are usually from fresh local fruit.   Because of the small batch sizes, some are only available to Wildside Wine Club Members (see our wine club page).  An short list of the interesting wines coming in 2010 are our new Bourbon barrel red wine made with Cabernet, peach mead, fresh strawberry, Pear and apple sparkling hard cider, and dry pawpaw wine.  Another special wine coming up is our Port wine.  It needs some aging (which we're doing in Woodford Reserve Bourbon barrels).  And last but not least, we are finally making a sweet red wine.

Wildside Winery is very close to Keenland race track in Lexington, Kentucky.  It is convenient to stop in to the winery after Keenland for a wine tasting. 

Neil, Rachel, Jim, Karen, Sonya, and Liz are here to make your visit an enjoyable and memorable one.  We look forward to providing a wide range of exciting wines for you to explore in a comfortable, friendly environment.   Lets talk about wine, winemaking, vine growing and your preferences in wine.
