About Us
The Time
When is the time to plant grape vines? When you are young. When is the time to make great wine? When you are old. Is there ever a time when you should not drink wine? No.
The Place
Our terroir is the sandstone foothills of North Carolina on the eastern side of the Linville Gorge, which often deflects the occasionally harsh west winds that bring storms in the summer and cold in the winter. It is a unique place that produces unique wine.
The Wine
We have grown our own grapes and have produced wine from only them since 2003. Our white grape, Viognier, originated in the Rhone Valley of France and was our first planting. Our red grape, Touriga Nacional, came here from northern Portugal and was added to our vineyard in 2015. Together, they are who we are.
