Our founder brings a proud heritage from Greece, where he learned the art of winemaking and distillation from his grandfather. That passion lives on in every bottle we produce.

Our diverse wine portfolio includes classics like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Malbec, Rosé, and Riesling, as well as regional favorites like Muscadine wine. Don’t miss our seasonal specialties, including handcrafted Strawberry Wine, Blackberry Wine, Blueberry Wine, and our signature Chocolate Strawberry Wine—a local favorite and unique gift idea for wine lovers.
