An easy drive from North Carolina’s Triad area (Winston-Salem, Greensboro, High Point) coming from the east, Charlotte from the south or from Wilkesboro and Boone to the north, the vineyards and wineries of Swan Creek are only 5 miles apart from each other, the closest vineyards in proximity within the state of North Carolina. Nestled in the heart of the Yadkin Valley our wine trail is "doable" either by car or by bicycle. From the I-77 and Hwy 421 intersection, our trail begins just 1.5 miles beyond. Get off the highway and trail the beautiful backcountry of Swan Creek, from Laurel Gray Vineyards, to Buck Shoals Vineyards, Raffaldini Vineyards, and soon, Dobbins Creek and Shadow Springs wineries! Or take the trail in reverse if you’re coming from the north. The Vineyards of Swan Creek enjoy a unique climate and soil composition conducive to the production of vinifera wine grapes. The foothills of two mighty mountain ranges – the Brushys and the Blue Ridge - kick up cooling breezes that dance down through the Swan Creek region. The rising mists from the distant Yadkin River’s flow frames our beautiful locale. The weathering of these noble mountains over the millennia has left Swan Creek with a fertile schist-like soil, composed of rich minerals that feed and nourish outstanding vinifera wine grapes. The Vineyards of Swan Creek offer both French and Italian wine varieties along with a few unique local blends. Follow the purple and green grape cluster signs to our beautiful vineyards; enjoy award-winning wines, magnificent mountains views, quiet country life and friendly wine people. We await your visit with colorful brochures and trail directions in hand, along with a bounty of information about Yadkin Valley wineries, events, festivals, restaurants, inns and places of interest. |
