About Nashville Wine Country
Nashville, Indiana is a village of fewer than 1,000 residents that draws two million visitors a year. And wine is part of why. Brown County Winery and Ambrosia Orchard & Cider Mill anchor the local beverage scene in a setting of art galleries, craft shops, and wooded hills that has attracted artists and visitors since the 1870s.
Brown County's landscape is Indiana's most dramatic, deeply forested ridges and hollows that blaze with color in autumn, anchored by the state's largest park. The topography creates protected microclimates where cold-hardy grapes and orchard fruits thrive, and the tasting rooms embrace the rustic, artistic character that defines the town.
Wine touring in Nashville is part of a full Brown County experience: hiking in the state park, browsing downtown's 100+ galleries and shops, live music at the venues along Main Street, and farm-to-table dining. Bloomington, Indiana University's home,is 20 minutes west, adding college-town culture and restaurants to the weekend options.
