Botanist & Barrel Cidery & Winery

Imagine... Sun-drenched afternoons on the porch, laughter echoing over plates piled high with comfort food, and glasses clinking in joyous celebration. This is the South we know, the South we crave. But something was missing. The wines we found couldn't capture that essence, that deep-rooted connection to home, family, and community. We're two families, bound not just by blood, but by a lifelong love for good food and even better company. We dreamed of a place where diversity was our spice, where every soul felt welcome like at a potluck supper overflowing with flavor and warmth. A place that reimagined the South, not with dusty stereotypes, but with the vibrant spirit of its people and the bounty of its land. Frustrated by the lack of wines that truly reflected our South, wines bursting with the freshness of local fruits and the soul of shared moments, we decided to take matters into our own hands. With grit, determination, and a whole lot of love, we embarked on a journey to craft the wines we yearned for. And guess what? It turned out we weren't alone. A chorus of voices echoed our own, yearning for wines that sparked joy, connection, and a taste of true Southern hospitality. So, we opened our doors, not just as a winery, but as a gathering place for kindred spirits. Today, Botanist & Barrel is more than just a brand. It's the embodiment of a dream, a testament to the power of family, community, and the universal language of flavor. Show Less
