Wineries Near Broken Bow: Girls Gone Wine & Fish Tales

Overview

Girls Gone Wine sits on the Hochatown strip, with a tasting room and the kind of scene that draws a real crowd, especially on weekends. Fish Tales takes a different approach — a working muscadine vineyard with a tasting room, a walkable vineyard stroll, and a bistro menu of paninis and small plates designed specifically to pair with the wine.

Why Visit

Between the two, you get both versions of a wine outing — a lively, social tasting room at Girls Gone Wine, and a slower, more scenic experience at Fish Tales if a vineyard stroll and a proper meal matter more to you than the tasting room scene.

What to Expect

A tasting flight at either runs an hour or so; add lunch at Fish Tales and it becomes a genuine half-day outing. Cost is moderate for a flight, more if you’re eating a full meal at Fish Tales. Girls Gone Wine works well for groups and a livelier afternoon; Fish Tales suits couples or anyone wanting something quieter.

Local Tips

Weekday visits are noticeably calmer than weekends at Girls Gone Wine specifically, since it draws the bigger crowd. If a vineyard stroll and a sit-down meal matter more than a busy tasting room, Fish Tales is the better call, especially for a romantic afternoon (see our romantic activities guide).

Pair either winery with dinner nearby afterward rather than trying to make the tasting the whole outing — most of Hochatown’s restaurants are a short drive from both.
