Be part of
something record-setting!
What do
you do with 15 acres of pruned grapevines? In an effort
to be green, we will reuse our grapevines. Adams
County Winery is making the World's Largest Grapevine
wreath!
Come be
part of this monumental event. You are invited to come
out to help us build the gianormous wreath.
Wreath
making will happen Saturdays, April 10th, 17th &
24th 1pm - 4pm at the farm winery.
School groups, scout troops,
environmental clubs, and crafters are encouraged to
take part in this fun, green event. If you have
experience building grapevine wreaths, we would love
your assistance in leading volunteers. Even if you have
never done this before, come out and be part of
something "big".
On May
1st the World's Largest Grapevine Wreath finale
will take place. Check our website for
details. |
| Time to Prune the
Vineyard |
Every
Spring our vineyard staff spends countless hours pruning
our 15 aces of grapes by hand.
We
cut as much as 12 feet of last year's growth off each
grape vine. This is necessary for the grapes to attain
their best growth and produce the best quality grapes
possible. You may think of wine as just another bottle
of mass-produced alcohol that came out of a factory and
shipped to the store shelf. But, in fact, the flavor and
quality of wine is all determined by the grape crop as
it grows.
That is why at Adams County
Winery, we consider our business a
farm winery. We give lots of time and
attention to our vines because they are the real makers
of our great
wines. |
It is time to clear out some merchandise.
For a limited time our entire stock of merchandise is 25%

golden retriever) was awarded a silver medal, and
Scrapple (our Sweet Cranberry
