Long Description:Garden Gate Vineyards produces a variety of fruit wines, all from
locally grown fruit. The wine maker is also an artist, and her art
is displayed all over the grounds. They have a delightful arbor
with tables and a beautiful new indoor tasting and picnic room.
Everywhere you look are tilework dragonflies, her trademark. This
place is more than just the wine!
Her husband, the entrepreneur half of the team, is colorful and
definitely has the Southern gift of gab.
They use no pesticides. They discovered, some years ago, and
quite by accident, that the bluebirds they liked so much to look at
drive away other birds and eat the insects. Along with the
bluebirds you'll see countless cardinals and hummingbirds.
The owners are friendly, open, and warm folks. They'd love for
"y'all to come 'n set a while" and enjoy yourself.
