Once a cattle & hay farm, we purchased the Bragg Farm in 2011 and started the process of transformation from hay to grapes and steaks to wine. CCW planted the original vines in 2013 with successive plantings since then. Today, they have approximately 14 acres of French varietals, which Bruce Deal turns into wine and their great staff and Debby Deal sell in the Tasting Room as well as selected restaurants & shops. The strawberry wine is surprisingly good, fairly dry, not unlike a rose’. They also make wide range of locally-produced wines, ranging in price from $18-$30 per bottle.
