Hard Pressed Beverages are available year-round at Mercier Orchards. We were one of the first apple orchards in Georgia that grew, pressed, fermented, and bottled their own product, leading to a booming industry. Our winery pours our very own seasonal wines and hard ciders all pressed in-house, as well as a variety of wines and mead from local vendors.
Come in, enjoy a tasting flight, and you’ll be “hard-pressed” not to take some back home!
Tasting Hours:
- Monday – Saturday: 11:00am- 4:45pm
- Sunday: 12:30pm- 4:45pm
We hope to see you soon – Cheers!
Please note that alcoholic products can only be purchased after 12:30 pm on Sundays. This is a Georgia state law. IDs are required to purchase alcohol at any time.
