Inheritance Valley Vineyards
The first vines at Inheritance Valley Vineyards were planted in 1997. Since then, the vineyards have been expanded to include seven varieties of wine grapes, three varieties of seedless table grapes, and several varieties of fruits and berries. The winery began producing commercial wines during the 2002 harvest and opened for sales in 2003. Our goal is to provide quality wines to be enjoyed by a diverse group of wine drinkers. We believe this is best accomplished by keeping things as simple as possible. We hope you enjoy our wines enough to visit the vineyards and winery whenever you can. Tim & Kendall Waller
