Today, the winery hosts a slew of events, from live music, the popular Cork and Fork series in each summer month, and even the fun-and-messy-for-all Grape Stomp.
The winery proudly produces big red wines like Tempranillo, Syrah, Tannat, Touriga Nacional, Zinfandel, and Black Spanish, also known as Lenoir. The wines continue to win awards and medals in statewide, national, and international competitions. Read more about it here.
