Scenic Winery in North Carolina's Yadkin Valley

Roaring River Vineyards: A Natural Retreat

Roaring River Vineyards is nestled in the picturesque Yadkin Valley, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes and rich history dating back to the 1700s. Located at the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, this 47-acre vineyard is bordered by the Roaring River to the north and lush woodlands to the east and south. Visitors can enjoy a serene escape into nature while savoring exquisite wines accompanied by the soothing sounds of the flowing river.

Ideal Climate for Winemaking

Tom and Josephine Silvey initially sought a weekend retreat when they purchased this property in 2001. Covered in dense woods, they soon discovered that the region's terroir and climate closely resembled that of Burgundy, France, making it perfect for viticulture. With a newfound passion for winemaking, the Silveys designed and developed the vineyard, even attending a Viticulture and Oenology seminar at Surry Community College. Today, Roaring River Vineyards produces a variety of wines, including Red, White, Rosé, and Dessert wines, crafted from grape varieties such as Traminette, Chardonel, Norton, and Chambourcin.

Rich History Surrounding the Vineyard

The vineyard's well-maintained vines yield high-quality grapes, which are transformed into exceptional wines at Elkin Creek. Adding to the charm of Roaring River Vineyards is its proximity to the historic Brewer Mill, which operated in the 18th century before being destroyed by a flood in 1940. This historical backdrop enhances the vineyard's appeal, making it a must-visit destination for wine enthusiasts and history buffs alike.
