A little behind-the-scenes look at the winemaking process.
🍷🍇
Assistant Winemaker Andrew Bender is giving Jill a taste straight from the vat to see how one of our wines is coming along during the aging process.
Throughout aging, our winemaking team is constantly tasting and checking each wine to see how it’s developing, watching the flavors, aromas, structure, and overall balance evolve over time.

North Mountain Vineyard & Winery has been part of the Shenandoah Valley since the vineyard was first planted in 1982, and in 2025, our family was given the opportunity to become the next chapter of its story.
We’re a family-owned and operated winery, and when we say family-run, we really mean it. You’ll find our family everywhere. In the vineyard, helping make the wine, behind the tasting room bar, planning events, working around the property and on the weekends, you’ll probably spot our kids and grandkids running through the vines.
Our family originally came to Virginia from New Jersey in 2012, looking for a little more space and a slower way of life. We fell in love with the Shenandoah Valley, and years later, North Mountain became part of our family’s story.
One thing we’re especially proud of is being an estate-grown winery. From the first bud in the spring to harvest, crush, fermentation and eventually the bottle, our wines begin right here at North Mountain. The grapes growing throughout our vineyard are the heart of what we do, and being able to take them from vine to wine right here on the property is something that means a lot to our family.
