Where is your vineyard?
One of our more popular questions. Amber Crest Winery does not have a vineyard. Recent advances in shipping technology have made it possible for us to purchase our grapes from some of the best grape growing areas throughout the world, such as Italy, France, Spain, Australia, the Napa Valley and the American Northwest. This process allows us to pick and choose the very best grapes available. We then ferment, produce and bottle our wine in our Charlotte, NC winery.
