Pinot Gris – North Carolina 

Pinot Gris (a.k.a. Pinot Grigio) is a smooth and refreshing wine, excellent as both an aperitif or paired with a meal.

Sauvignon Blanc – North Carolina

Our Sauvignon Blanc opens with aromas of grapefruit laced with honeysuckle and lemongrass. Delightfully crisp and refreshing this is an excellent choice all by itself or as a delicious complement to scallops, shrimp, chicken or a fresh salad.

Chardonnay –Yadkin Valley NC                       

This Chardonnay has focused flavors of vanilla and spice while maintaining citrus notes. Aging in a combination of French and Hungarian oak casks adds subtle nuances of caramel and toast to the overall taste profile.

Sangiovese - Georgia                                      

A complex red wine with bright fruit flavors of dried cherries with a smoky earthy finish.  This Gold Medal winner is a perfect companion to any Italian dish!

Cabernet Sauvignon – Yadkin Valley

With three years of barrel aging this wine provides a mouthful of fruit with excellent structure, rich tannins and a lingering finish. This full bodied red is the perfect companion to a hearty dish or grilled steak.

Mountain Meritage                                         

This award winning Bordeaux style wine is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec.

Norton - Georgia                                            

This native grape is as big, bold and brassy as any American.  We have blended in a bit of Cabernet Franc to tame the beast and just a splash of Syrah to add a touch of fruit to the finish.  If you are firing up the grill, this is the wine to open.

Riesling - North Carolina                                  

Our Riesling opens with aromas of white peach and apricot with an enticing whiff of honeysuckle. The rich and crisp body carries the fruit all the way to a clean finish.  Delectable all by itself, this Riesling pairs well with smoked trout and rich seafood dishes such as lobster or crab and is the perfect accompaniment to spicy Asian or Indian fare. 

Indian Summer Apple

This wine is intensely flavorful, reminiscent of a freshly cut green apple. The soft acidity and luscious, fruity aroma of this crisp refresher make it perfect for a hot summer day.

Peach                                                            

The scent of ripe peaches explodes from this crisp, flavorful wine. It blends the varietal notes of Chardonnay with the natural sweetness of peaches. This wine is the perfect compliment to an afternoon by the lake, or an evening barbecue.

Raspberry                                                       

This blush wine offers the succulent, mouth-watering flavors of sweet, ripe raspberries. Great for picnics and other casual social events.

Blackberry                                                        

Its name says it all. A light red wine with a sweet mouthful of ripe blackberries.
