Mountain Brook Vineyards
At Mountain Brook Vineyards crafting fine wine is a labor of love. We take great care in nurturing our 7.5-acre vineyard. All of our wines are made of 100 percent North Carolina grapes, harvested by hand and aged in oak barrels and stainless steel tanks. We keep our vintages small to focus on producing the highest quality wines.
