We feature award-winning, estate-produced wines in a family-owned, boutique winery. Winery owner Sharon Klay and her husband Dr. John Klay first developed an interest in winemaking while living in New York City in the 1970s. This interest led them to research and select the nearly 100 varieties of grapes that would be suitable for cool climate growing conditions.
