Reid’s Livery Winery

Owner and wine grower Rex Reid opened Reid’s Livery Winery in the Spring of 2009, with a vision of creating Alvaton’s finest small farm winery. Self trained on the farm,  he creates  berry & grape wines with an extensive passion for perfection. We have won Three Commissioner’s Culps for the Best Boutique Wine in Kentucky, and over 250 awards for our wine since 2009. Most of them from International Judges from Fingerlakes International to Indy International, Wines of the South to Snoma California’s US National and others. .

Rex opened the doors of Reid’s Livery Winery in the Spring of 2009. Before opening the doors, he spent the previous three years producing the finest home grown wines.  Since we have won over 250 international medals and the Kentucky Commissioner Cup three times  for the best wine in the state!

Unique Wines from Kentucky.  Rex Reid is a wine grower. This means our wines are completely made on the farm.  Our estate wines are grown, picked and made into wine right here on the farm.
