Whispering Oaks Vineyard and Winery

The year 2009 is nearly at a close.  It has been 12 years since we began the endeavor into the grape and wine business. It will be our 6th year at the location on Highway 60.  It seems like yesterday when construction began on the wine cellar.  It is amazing how time flies.

 We look to 2010 and for more events, more opportunities to share the art and science of wine making and to teach others about vineyard management through VESTA.  

Merry Christmas and a joyous New Year!

The holidays are upon us and the cold air has arrived.  The grapes are getting their well deserved winter's nap.

 We still have some juice to sell.  Catawba and Saint Vincent.  Great for jellies or home wine makers. Please call the winery for availability.

 We have lots of turned wood, metal works, and photography by local artists in our tasteing room.  We have Amish made "Goot Essa" natural cheeses and many wine related gifts.  Don't forget sparkling wine for New Year's!

Pruning season will be here before we know it.  You have to time pruning to be when the vines are still dormant, but you are past the worst of the cold weather.  That will make it easy to identify any winter kill so it can be removed to maximize fruiting.  If you have vines of your own, please contact us if you have questions about proper pruning.
