Black Walnut Winery
It all started one day in 2001 when Lance, Valerie, Jack and Karen decided to try their hand at winemaking. Their friends joined in and they processed 500 lbs. of grapes for their ‘unofficial’ first crush under a canopy of Black Walnut trees at the home of Lance and Valerie. This very quickly became an annual event. Several years later, they began to talk about opening a winery.  In the fall of 2006, friends and family came out to participate in the first official crush at Black Walnut Winery. We invite you to visit our winery to sample our wines in our distinctive tasting room.

Chaddsford Winery

632 Baltimore Pike
Chaddsford, PA 19317

Email: info@chaddsford.com 

Chaddsford Winery was founded in 1982 by Eric and Lee Miller who have been intimately involved in the growth and development of the premium eastern wine industry since its emergence onto the American wine scene in the early 1970s. Their combined 60 years of experience in enology, viticulture and wine marketing brought a unique background to the Chaddsford Winery that is largely responsible for its unparalleled success in moving to the forefront of the industry.
 

Located on a small country estate in the heart of the Brandywine artist community – halfway between Philadelphia and Wilmington, Delaware – the winery is housed in a charmingly renovated colonial barn that is open for visitors year round. It is just two miles away from the world renowned Longwood Gardens and the Wyeth family's Brandywine River Museum.

Kreutz Creek Vineyards

553 S. Guernsey Road
West Grove, PA 19390
610-869-6349

Kreutz Creek Vineyards – Jim Kirkpatrick is the winemaker for Kreutz Creek Vineyards. He started making wine from a kit that his wife, Carole, gave him for his birthday in 1989. (Carole truly believes that’s how the “monster” was created.) Since everyone liked the wines from the kits, Jim and Carole thought they would try their hands at growing grapes. They moved to another home with 3 acres of land in Wrightsville, Pennsylvania where they started a small vineyard. Their home was located 100 yards from Kreutz Creek — hence, the vineyard was named. Wines include: whites including Chardonnay, Vidal Blanc, Niagara and Holiday Wassail, reds such as Cabernet Franc, Chambourcin and Proprietor's Red, rose, and dessert wines.

Paradocx Vineyard

1833 Flint Hill Road 
Landenberg, PA, 19350
610-255-5684

Paradocx Vineyards, nestled among the rolling hills of southern Chester County, Pennsylvania, combines current technology and handcrafted secrets to create unique wines, made from homegrown grapes, and from those of only selected custom growers.

Moderating influences of the Chesapeake and Delaware bays and the southern sloping mica soils afford Paradocx a unique mesoclimate in the region. This mesoclimate coupled with state-of-the-art viticulture practices, create a winning combination for this 5,000 case winery. The owners and management of Paradocx Vineyard, who share a fervent passion for winemaking, adhere to the principle that winemaking begins with success in the vineyard.

With over 100 acres of land, 30 of which are under vine, Paradocx’s home vineyard in Landenberg, Pennsylvania offers an array of grapes for head winemaker Dave Hoffman to choose from, including 27 acres of vinifera vines and 3 acres of Chambourcin and Vidal vines. By providing only the finest grapes that our site has to offer, we are able to afford our winemaker with the best possible start for a quality wine in the bottle

Penns Woods Winery

124 Beaver Valley Road
Chadds Ford, PA 19317

610-459-0808

Penns Woods Winery is the result of Gino Razzi's lifetime of experience in the world of wine. A respected importer and distributor of wine, Gino is an Italian immigrant from Abruzzo, in southern Italy. With three decades of success as a wine importer, in 1999, Gino turned his experience towards the craft of winemaking.

He finished his first wine in 1997 ,Symposium , a Montepulciano d’Abruzzo was his first commercially released wine, and was awarded 95 points by Wine Spectator Magazine. This publication recently honored this wine again with its inclusion in the retrospective article “Italy's Golden Vintage - the 1997 Harvest” in 2007.

Gino's pursuit of perfection led him to his own back yard. In 2002, he began to craft wines from Pennsylvania–grown grapes. To his surprise, he found that great wines can be made in Pennsylvania.

After a two year search for an ideal vineyard site, Gino decided to purchase the Smithbridge Winery, in 2004, to take advantage of its 25-year-old vines.

Va La Vineyards

8822 Gap Newport Pike (Rt 41)
Avondale, PA 19311
610-268-2702

Va La Vineyards – Va La is a microwinery, devoted to the creation of wines from a tiny piece of land.The name Va La is in recognition of a village in northern Italy called Giusvalla,population 400, from which our family immigrated. The phrase ‘va la’ translates to “go there” in proper Italian.

 The home vineyard contains 6.73 acres of land .The wine is produced in batches of one to nine barrel and the total production is approximately 500 to 700 cases a year. The winemaker is the caretaker of the vines, and the fruit is harvested by hand. At harvest, the many niches from a particular region are brought together into a single wine;we view the wine as a collection of the ‘voices’ that describe a certain area of the vineyard,the components of the wine are essentially determined by the vineyard itself.

In these wines we seek to express the small field we are blessed to occupy.
