Where are you located & what are your open hours?
We are located at 1549 Ike Brooks Drive, Kings Mountain NC 28086. Please use Google Maps to find us; other map options may take you to a farm approximately 1 mile from our location. We are open 12pm - 6pm on Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays year round. Please check our events calendar before you visit, in case of early closings or time changes due to holidays, weather, or private events.
What kinds of wine do you serve?
We focus on delicious, single varietal, dry wines and recently launched small batch, seasonal production of sweet wines. All of our wines are vinifera or vinifera hybrid based; we do not produce wine from muscadine grapes. Please click here to view our current wine menu and tasting notes on each of our wines as well as a list of available wine cocktails. As our own vines are still young and maturing, we partner with amazing family-owned, sustainably farmed vineyards in NC, VA, and CA to source grapes to expand our wine offerings.
Do you accept reservations?
All of our seating is first come, first serve and reservations are not accepted. We welcome large groups, you do not need to call ahead or inquire about special arrangements for larger parties; however, party buses and limousine type vehicles must park off property while you enjoy your visit. At this time, we do not offer any private rentals of our estate or buildings.

For the safety and quiet enjoyment of all guests, outside lawn games, sports balls, sidewalk chalk, kites, riding toys, rough house playing, jumping off furnishings, digging in landscape rocks/mulch, etc. are not permitted. We have an estate walking trail suitable for children that guests are welcome to use and outdoor corn hole board sets that we set out for guest use, weather permitting.
