Charis Winery & Distillery

“🍷🥇 The internationally award-winning Charis Winery and Distillery located in The Canal Place Shops of downtown historic Cumberland, Maryland should be a definite stop if you’re in the area! Chuck, the owner, gave us a wonderful tasting of all of the delicious wine and spirits he offers! We also shared some good stories and laughs together during our visit; it was like we had know each other for a lifetime. Chuck was also so kind to give Bill a retirement gift, even though we had just met us! Thank you so much for the great and memorable experience at your amazing establishment! 🍷🥇”

“The winery is small and quaint. They don't have a vineyard on site. The grapes are purchased elsewhere. The wine and brandy is made here in the store. They offer a nice variety from red, dry to smooth to sweet. My favorite is the chocolate wine. They also make 3 types of brandy. It was interesting to see how it was made. They offer tastings for 5.00 which is very reasonable and they take the 5.00 off if you purchase 2 bottles of wine. They just recently moved into this bigger unit. Stop by and give it a try. They were extremely nice and helpful.”

“Had a great experience! Chuck Park was a gracious host. The winery is located in Canal Park, such a quaint setting with a great country shop where we made a fantastic Christmas purchase. The wines were amazing, the Rose was one of the best we have ever had, bought a bottle for our weekend in Deep Creek. They are adding outdoor seating and music along with food truck nights. Certainly a destination to stop when traveling through Cumberland MD.”

“Chuck (the owner) was soooooooooooooooo nice! He was super knowledgeable and informative. The tour was very interesting. The wine had a great taste, even though my preference is for something sweeter. I DEFINITELY suggest trying the bounces. I loved the lemon and peach! So, if you are in the area or close, you should absolutely stop by to try all the things. Drink responsibly and Happy tasting!!”

“We went to the winery as part of our anniversary weekend celebration. Morgan helped us select flights of wines and spirits which we thoroughly enjoyed. She was very attentive and shared information about other local venues we might enjoy. If you are in the downtown Cumberland area we highly recommend you stop by.”

“Cute little winery and distillery in Cumberland! Made a stop here during a stay at Rocky Gap, and it did not disappoint. The owner helped us with two tastings, and we walked out with several bottles of goodies.”

“Great winery with delicious olive oils and spirits. The tripo dato and the triple berry are my two favorites!! So delicious and Chuck was fun to talk to and very knowledgeable. Will be back 😁”

“The owners were friendly and the space felt safe given the social distancing. Decent selection of wine for the tasting. The olive oil tasting is quirky.”
