The story begins...........
Beans Creek Winery began as a dream no larger than a grape. Tom made his first wine in 1976 in a pickle crock in his mother's kitchen with childhood friends Joe and Dan Lasater. Tom has spent 30 years perfecting our award winning wine style using grapes and fruit that grow well in Tennessee.

In 2003 with the help and support of other winegrowing families our dream became reality. Our member vineyards are located in Coffee, Warren and Williamson counties of middle Tennessee. We purchase grapes from growers in Sumner, Robertson, Sequatchie, Loudon and Sullivan counties of Tennessee. Beans Creek Winery is pleased to offer a wide selection of Tennessee wines.

FYI
It is the VERY slow interaction of oxygen and wine that produces the changes noticed in aging wine. It is believed that wine ages more slowly in larger bottles, since there is less oxygen per volume of wine in larger bottles. Rapid oxidation, as with a leaky cork, spoils wine.

The lip of a red wine glass is sloped inward to capture the aromas of the wine and deliver them to your nose.


What is the ideal temperature for wine?
Whites: chilled (45-55 degrees F) for a few hours in the refrigerator.
Reds: slightly cooler than room temperature (about 65 degrees); Younger fruity reds benefit from chilling.
Sparkling Wine: thoroughly chilled; refrigerate several hours or the night before serving.
Dessert Wine: room temperature.
