A Diamond in the... Diamonds - Chatham Hill Winery

 A Diamond in the (...well) Diamonds - Chatham Hill Winery


Yeah, Yeah, I know the saying goes A Diamond in the Rough, but I'm writing today about a winery in Cary, NC... the town of Cary itself is a Diamond so rough doesn't exactly apply.

Chatham Hill Winery, Cary NC

 

I'd heard about the winery from Dick Betts some time ago, and couldn't imagine that WE had one here.  But lo and behold, located amongst businesses and tucked in an unassuming office building is North Carolina's first Urban Winery.  Don't let the outside (though lovely... it's not what you'd expect when imagining walking up to a winery) discourage you from the fantastic time to be had inside.

For a mere $8 during the week or $10 on the weekend you can experience the aroma and flavor, sampling the many delicious wines - sure to please even the most discerning pallets, as well as a guided tour where you'll see the where and how the wine is made.  

We discovered walk-ins are welcome with open arms, but would suggest checking out the Chatham Hill Wine website first to view, choose and take advantage of the many events offered. 

  So if you think you might want to check it out, give me a call - I'd love to join you!

Wineries are very popular in Loudoun County VA.  More wineries here than any county in the state (more horses too).  The wineries offer tasting room with fees of $4-7 per glass that I've seen.  Entertainment is popular with country bands and bluegrass the most popular.  It's big business here.

Micheal,  done!  Thanks for the invite...

Hi Lenn, when I first heard about ours I was really surprised.  But once there I learned that no there isn't a 'vineyard' but that it sure is a where they turn those gorgeous grapes into some mighty tasty wine
!  We need for you and Margaret to make a road trip down this way ~ now that we have a perfect place to meet!

I kept wondering why you weren't branding your very cool vid about the winery until I got to the end. :)  I still enjoyed it and it doesn't always have to be one of our "own" does it?  Great local post and feature.  I felt like I was there...

So Debb, know you know for sure there will be some videos coming!  Should be a really fun time...  Great place, great wine, and great Rain People!  How can you go wrong?!?

Renee, would love it if you ever made your way east!  The door is always open...

Thanks again Jill, your winery is by far one of the neatest places to visit here in the Triangle!  What a lovely establishment you have.  We had a blast. Again thank you for such warm hospitality for our first AR MeetUP!
