NATIVE VINES WINERY PRESENTATION TIME 1:00PM

Native Vines Winery is the first Native American Indian owned winery in the country, owned and operated by Darlene Gabbard. They are located in Lexington, NC on 36 acres of rolling pasture, bordered by Historic Highway 150 - the old Waxhaw Indian Trading Trail, and Indian Grave Creek, where ancient Indian tribes buried the dead in the banks of the life giving stream. Arrowheads can still be found when working the soil. Boones' Cave State Park, 3 miles down 150, is where Daniel Boone hid from a war party of Indians on a cliff overlooking the Yadkin River. The farm has been in the family for hundreds of years and was part of the original Wachovia Land Grants of the 1700's. Native Vines is located in the Yadkin Valley Viticultural Area, North Carolina's equivalent to Napa Valley. Native Vines is committed to producing premium wines for their customers.
