Our trip to Horizon Cellars this past Friday was a true adventure of the byways. Located off of Old US Hwy 421south of Siler City; our decision to begin the journey on the same route out of Greensboro was just beautiful. It is a great drive past sites of yesteryear's mixed with lush farmlands; we may have seen a total of 10 vehicles during the drive. Once at our destination of Vineyard Ridge Road, we turned right off of Old US Hwy 421 to begin our descent up the ridge. As we wandered through the forest on the gravel road; we were struck by how dense the foliage was just a mile or so outside of Siler City. At the crest we found the winery nestled in the middle of it all.

"It's Not About the Wine; Just the Experience."
As a couple of folks who enjoy good wine and a little back roads adventure, we want to share our visits to the wineries nearby. The number of wineries in North Carolina and Virginia continues to grow, and as we travel to as many of them as we can, we'll offer our impressions, and just maybe some information you don't normally find in the brochures. We hope you find Byway & Vine enjoyable, informative, and a place where you can share your experiences too.
