Slattery Vintage Estates

We spent the night recently and I would not recommend staying in the Glam Tents. We had a tarp over ours due to hail damage, our screen zipper to the tent was broken so we had to step over the opening because it was still connected at the bottom. A note was left on the dresser saying, Sorry the zipper is broken. There was mold on the tent. $75.00 to stay plus $11.00 for breakfast.

Beautiful place, love the tents. I only gave it a 2 for winery after I discovered it isn't a real winery. They just sell other wineries wines. A different concept, not sure if it should be listed here to be fair to all.

Favorite Wine: Poet''s Red from Cuthills Vineyards

This vineyard is perhaps the most beautiful tasting room and outdoor seating area we have visited in Nebraska. Multi-level decks some of which are covered, outdoor fireplaces including a wood fired oven for pizzas, single tables under ivy covered trellises, pond with ducks and lots and lots of beautiful landscaping. And there is glamour camping too. Nice tasting room inside with neat cellar-like sales racks, fireplace inside as well. It all makes for a very nice escape. This vineyard is not bottling their own wines yet but . . . SVE provides the opportunity to taste wines from all across Nebraska. On this particular trip we really liked a wine called Silverfox from Silver Hills winery in Tekamah. It was a very pleasant and smooth dry Red. Our favorite on this outing was from an old favorite of ours: Cuthills Vineyards in Pierce. The wine was very nice in a lot of ways. It's called Poet''s Red. Upon the first sip I thought on the front end, "Ooops, this one is going to be a semi-dry or maybe even a semi-sweet. But that sensation was gone immediately as the front end transitioned to a nice peppery finish. Dry and peppery but delicate at the same time.And Poet's Red is a very, very pretty red. No Cinnamon flavor mind you, but cinnamon color, bright red. It was like it glowed or was on fire in terms of color. Very interesting. I don' t know what grape varieties were in either of these wines but both surprised me as being far better than what I have had previously from Nebraska wines. We really liked our time here and will definitely come back. I am giving the ambiance five stars but was tempted to downgrade because our tasting room host was trying to hurry us. But with that said, I think she might have been new and was nervous I think. She calmed down nicely as we spent some time with her. It would have been nice if she knew more about what she was pouring but then again these weren't this vineyards wines. Despite the few nitpicks a very nice experience.
