About Roo Mountain Vineyards
Set on 226 acres of former farmland with protected mountain and forest views all around, Roo Mountain Vineyards is a celebration of both the beauty of the Blue Ridge foothills and the warm hospitality and community that surround it. Every corner of Roo Mountain today has been intentionally crafted to share that same beauty and hospitality with each of our guests.
The property currently encompasses the vineyard under cultivation as well as our 12,000 square foot winery, barrel room and rooftop garden tasting bar with idyllic scenic views. Our second phase of construction is currently underway and will add a main tasting room as well as an outdoor amphitheater which will play host to live music and other events.
About Roo Mountain
Roo Mountain’s founders are long time residents of the Blue Ridge Mountains, having spent years running a local business before ultimately deciding to pursue their passion in creating a vineyard. Inspired by their own love of good wine, good music and good company, they purchased the property that would become Roo Mountain in 2018 and began the meticulous process of planning and planting, all the while working to make Roo Mountain a luxurious yet comfortable and inviting destination where they can share their love of the craft and the community.
About Our Award Winning Wines
Two years of planning and soil testing went into creating Roo Mountain’s vineyard. The first block of Petit Verdot and Merlot grapes were planted in 2020 and first harvested in 2021.
Today, Roo Mountain has 6,000 vines under cultivation on 6 acres, all on a VSP or Vertical Shoot Positioned trellis system. Roo Mountain offers a robust selection of red, white, rose and sparkling wines as well as hard ciders all produced onsite by our own vineyard team.
