About Us
Hello,
Tamara Stewart - Owner
Our Story
12 Mile Creek Winery is a female owned and operated small farm winery established in 2016. We are set in the foothills of southern Campbell County, nestled overlooking 12 Mile Creek on scenic Rt. 10.
Tami and Kevin decided to combine their passion for the art of wine making and knowledge of business operations and turned them into the dream of a lifetime, and we sure had a great run.
The doors opened for tastings in July of 2017. The first year was challenging and there was a lot to learn about the wine business.
12 Mile Creek Winery produces award winning wines by blending new ideas with old family recipes and traditions. Tami and Kevin started making wine together in 2016. One of the first wines they made was their award-winning Jalapeno wine; and since 2016 it remains one of their best sellers. 12 Mile Creek Winery makes a wide variety of wines that include dry, semi, sweet and fruit wines that are now available in local stores.
"It is a privilege to partner with our community to make and sell wine here in Southern Campbell County and across the state of Kentucky", "We are Kentucky Proud!"
This September 20 will be the last day for the tasting room to be open. If you need wine, please visit one of our listed local retailers. You can also call us if you need a larger order, we may be retiring but we will still be making wine. The Winery remains available for rent for your special events.

THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT YOUR WINE
BOTTLE SHOCK
Bottle shock occurs when wine is shaken in travel. It is a temporary condition that can mute the flavor of the wine. Let your wine set for a few days before opening. This should bring the wine back to normal.
OXIDATION
Oxidation occurs when wine is exposed to air. It can change the flavor of wine to very unpleasant in a short period of time 12 to 24 hours. The best way to avoid oxidation is to drink it before it happens or remove the air in the bottle with a small bottle hand vacuum or use C02 wine savor. These items can be found on Amazon or stores like Bed Bath & Beyond.
TEMPERATURE
Temperature change can alter the taste of wine drastically. Do not leave your wine in a hot or cold car. Keep your wine in an area of your house that is not in direct sun and temperature stays even. If you like your wine chilled when drinking it the whites can be stored in the refrigerator. Chill your red wine a few hours before drinking.
WINE DIAMONDS
Wine diamonds occur when wine is refrigerated, crystals can form in the bottle. They are harmless tartrates that are natural in wine. You will mostly find them in red wine because most white wines are cold stabilized during processing and the diamonds are remove. If you see them, just avoid that last little bit of wine in the bottle. Remember they are harmless.
