PEOPLE ARE SAYING:Local Living TeamIn early 2004 Dan and Heather decided to start a vineyard and winery.

Twelve years, 18 – 25 wines, and three little boys later, they are still moving forward with all the energy and creativity they started with! The name, by the way, came from the old wagonhouse on the Brown family farm. The idea was to build a tasting room someday, modeled after that very building. Ironically enough, the building that is NOW our tasting room was once the site of the original wagonhouse for the farm located at 1401 Route 45… we have the pictures to prove it!
