A taste of the grape, close to home

ine aficionados in Northwest Arkansas don’t have to travel to the Bordeaux region of France, the Napa Valley in California, or the Pinot region of the Willamette Valley of Oregon to sip award-winning wine.

Nestled in a peaceful valley in Northwest Arkansas, minutes from Fayetteville, Sassafras Springs Vineyard and Winery is celebrated for its delicious, award-winning wines, storybook weddings, and premier corporate and nonprofit events, impeccably personalized to you for the experience of a lifetime.

Sassafras Springs is the only multi-year winner for “Best Wedding Venue” and “Best Winery” in Northwest Arkansas. The 70+ acre estate setting has the old-world charm of Tuscany with several venue options perfect for celebrations.

The Sassafras Springs Winery is where one can taste life to the fullest in the intimate wine-tasting room. A special spot could be next to the fireplace, or at a creek side table on one of the multi-tiered decks.

The Chapel ruins is the ideal place for “I do’s” and the Stables is a showcase of rustic charm and spacious elegance. The new Veranda is a stunning covered deck overlooking the Sassafras vineyards. The Peacock room is an intimate, lavish setting reserved for brides to get ready and watch for guests arriving in perfect privacy. The upscale Lodge at the Winery is the latest showcase venue, and opened in July 2019 with four ensuite bedrooms, a spectacular great room and a spacious deck at the foot of the vineyards.

A great wine-tasting experience in a breathtaking setting, Sassafras Springs Vineyard has been voted Northwest Arkansas’ Best Winery and Best Wedding Venue multiple times. “It’s a wonderful place where people are always celebrating things,” says co-owner Cheryl Long. She adds, “our creativity and passion to bring a wow! experience to our guests sets us apart from other wineries. While our six varietals of internationally award-winning wines are worthy of every toast, it’s the romance of our settings and the surpassing service given to our guests that make every celebration memorable.”

Visit Sassafras Springs online at sassafrasspringsvineyard.com or in person at 6461 East Guy Terry Road, Springdale, and create your own special memory.

Sassafras Springs has been nominated for Best Wedding Venue, Best Wine Selection and Best Winery in this year’s Best of NWA. Voting is open, and visitors can cast a vote each day through Thursday, December 19.
