La Cantina Winery - Franklin

I love this place! They make their own wine, nice cozy place to get a glass or bottle of wine

We loved this winery! Our favorites were the Barbera and the Sauv Blanc. We bought a bottle of each. Definitely check this place out!

I have a friend who lives north of Boston so I drove up from CT for us to meet in the middle here at La Cantina! THE WINE -we both did flights and enjoyed our selections! -they give you a cute dry erase menu to circle your choices. I recommend looking at the menu online so you can see a detailed description of each wine before selecting what you want. -the tasting comes with the winery glass. I am happy to add this one to my collection. Really sturdy and nice hand feel. THE SERVICE -there was one person working when we arrived about 20 min after opening. I think at one point someone else came in. -she clearly had a lot to do as the place got busier but she still made sure to check in on us and other tables apologized to folks when they experienced any sort of wait THE LOCATION -we were here in the winter so we sat indoors. I'm honestly not sure if there is outside seating but I want to assume yes -the inside was VERY small. About 6 high top tables (most 2 seaters) plus a bar. We were lucky we got there early because it really filled up quick and we would have had no where to sit. -I will say I noticed a pretty decent turnover of tables so even though it was consistently busy (as a Saturday should be) I didn't see any patron have to be turned away or wait long for seating. -the tables were pretty small but enough room for our flights. It got pretty loud once the place filled up so my friend and had really had to lean in talk louder in order to hear each other at times -being high top tables the chairs were also high and had very low backs. I can see them possibly being difficult for folks with certain disabilities or some people who are older. -Parking! I did not look at the website ahead of time to check for parking and was very confused upon arrival. I called and they were able to give me good directions. There isn't a parking lot and not much street parking. But there is a large beige building (gymnasium) nearby where you can park ALONG the white fence and walk through this back way to the winery. My understanding was the other spots in the parking lot were strictly off limits! THE FOOD -there was a food truck when we were there and lots of folks purchased from it. Seems like they have rotating vendors. -I think you could purchase a charcuterie on site as well. -you are allowed to bring your own food in so I brought cheese and crackers some other little snacks! It is always very nice to have that option. Though we had to be really careful maneuvering our food to make sure we didn't knock anything over because the tables are so small. Overall I had a really nice experience and recommend this winery. Would love to go in the warmer months to experience outdoor seating options. While I won't drive here of my own accord (1hr away) I would definitely meet my friend here again as a lovely central meeting point!

Each of us tried a flight of 5 wines. Everything we tried was delicious. The live music was fantastic. Highly recommend!

The wines are very good reds and whites. The outside space was full no seats were available. The musician was good, played country music closer to rack than classic country.If it is a nice day it would be a nice place with or without the music.
