NVV boasts one of the most unique winery tours in North America. Our five gallery self-guided museum chronicles everthing from the increadible 8,000 year history of wine to how how the vineyard grows in the modern day.

Did You Know That ...
The egyptian's invented the wine press?
Or that It takes 16 lbs of fruit to make 1 gallon of wine? The origin of the culivated grapevine was Mesopotamia and not Italy? Wine has been used a medicine for countless centuries? It takes at least 15 leaves to ripen one cluster of fruit?

These are just a few of the things you'll learn on our tour surrounded by beautiful photographs, illustrations and unique artifacts. Of course, you can also see the processing equipment if you want to. But that's what you see at every other winery in the country (yawn).

The first exhibit gallery of the tour also houses our art gallery space. Each month a new exhibit features the work of regional artists covering all genres from watercolor and oil paintings to photography and sculpture. A “Meet The Artist” reception is held at the beginning of the show and is always open the public.
