Benjamin Vineyards NC on the Haw River

Benjamin Vineyards NC
If you love great tasting wine and you're driving along highway 87 or highway 54 near Chapel Hill, North Carolina you may want to stop in at Benjamin Vineyard and winery a family owned and operated establishment. Not only will you find great North Carolina wines here but the setting, on the banks of the Haw River is absolutely beautiful. And the owners are really very nice, this is a great place to relax.

This winery consists of a wine tasting or hospitality room, a very beautiful outdoor setting and a nice little gift shop where you can purchase some very unique items.

Also, if you're a person who is interested in North Carolina wine trails, you may want to check out the Haw River wine trail.

Benjamin winery is just one of the fine wineries you will visit while participating on this trail.

Their hours are Thursday-Sunday from Noon to 5 pm.

The wine selection consists of 12 tempting different wines. You will find both dry whites and reds. You will also find semi-sweet whites and a couple very good dessert wines. And what would a North Carolina Winery be without muscadine wines?

So yes, if you're searching for a great selection of muscadine wines Benjamin Vineyards does have a selection of this wine variety. They currently have 5 different muscadines, ranging from sweet to semi-sweet to semi dry. They have an award winning Scuppernong that you need to try if you visit.

And if you find a wine here that you absolutely love, the great thing is their wines are sold at many different stores locations in the area. There's also a few restaurants in North Carolina that have their wines on the wine list.

My personal favorite at this vineyard is a white wine call Norton, this is a great fruit forward drink that goes excellent with Italian foods or other spicy dishes.

This winery can also be rented out for private parties such as: Birthdays, weddings, family reunions.

You will also find events going on throughout the year.
