  • 10043o wine horse creek.jpg Business This Week: Horse Creek is a wonderful find

    While a number of people have discovered the delightful winery in our midst, some may not yet know about Horse Creek Winery.
    Row upon row of grape vines greet customers to the winery, which is located off the Adel Highway just a few miles outside Nashville in Berrien County. Owned by longtime residents of the region, Ed Perry takes pride in the quality of the Muscadine grapes they produce, which are handpicked only when ripe.
    You can read all about the winery, which recently won an astounding number of awards at an international wine competition, earning one gold and five bronze medals, in the latest copy of the Valdosta Scene magazine.
