At the heart of Younts Wine Farm is our vigneron, Eric Younts. His experience in grape growing dates back to the planting of our first vines when he was only four years old. Eric spent his childhood summers in the vineyard, where he learned the importance of hard work and dedication. There isn’t an inch of the property that his feet haven’t touched.
Now the vineyard manager, Eric oversees operations from pruning to harvest. He also leads the wine-making process and is currently studying Viticulture and Enology at Surry Community College.
