Behind The Bottle with Assistant Winemaker Andrew Bender

Ever wonder what goes into creating your favorite bottle of wine?

Join us for the debut of Behind the Bottle, a new tasting experience at North Mountain Vineyard & Winery!

Led by Assistant Winemaker Andrew Bender, this guided tasting takes guests beyond the glass to explore the winemaking process, unique characteristics of each varietal, tasting notes, and the stories behind our wines.

For our inaugural event, we’re celebrating five of our award-winning wines from the Shenandoah Cup!

Our Gold Medal Winners:
Traminette – “La Belle”
Chambourcin – “Foster’s Reserve”

Our Silver Medal Winners:
Grüner Veltliner
Chardonnay 2025
Cabernet Franc 2023

Guests will enjoy a guided tasting of all five wines, with Andrew sharing his knowledge and answering questions throughout the experience.

Light charcuterie will be served to complement the tasting.
