Region:


North Carolina

North Carolina, with its picturesque landscapes ranging from the Atlantic coastline to the Appalachian Mountains, is a diverse and rapidly growing winegrowing region in the southeastern United States. The state's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) are shaped by varying climates and elevations, which significantly influence the character of the vineyards. The cooling breezes from the Atlantic Ocean and the elevation provided by the mountains help to moderate the climate, allowing for a longer growing season. This extended season is crucial for the slow, even ripening of grapes, enabling them to develop full flavors while maintaining balance. Vineyards in the cooler mountain areas excel in producing aromatic, delicate wines, while the warmer coastal and inland areas are ideal for fuller, more robust varieties.
