Reid's Orchard & Winery officially opened in March, 2009 with the UnCork York! Tour de Tanks to rave reviews and pleased customers. We are proud to offer to you wines made from our own vines and from other farms in this region.
Our philosophy is to encapsulate in our wines the essence of the grape and all it offers for that season through our traditional handcrafted winemaking methods. We are committed to using a minimal amount of chemicals in the production of our grapes and in the creation of our wines.
Our family winery produces limited production of red wines styled with a nod to the Tuscan and Umbrian red wines we love so much. We produce a classic style of whites, sur lie in oak barrels, that pair as well with foods as they do with cheese and fruit. Beginning with the 2010 harvest, our whites and reds rest in oak barrels sourced from the Appalachian region.
Our fruit wines are made from our estate grown fruit. These wines are 100% fruit with no added flavorings, concentrates or essence. Our goal is to make wine from the fruit of the tree and earth just as we make wine from the fruit of the vine.
Our vineyard's terroir, the combination of our Highfield Channery loam soil, the morning mist that rises from headwaters of the Conewago Creek, our elevation of 1350 ft., and our vineyard management techniques are all important components in the creation of our quality wines.
Come and taste our old world style wines and see what you think!
