Open: Year Round
Chuck Nunan began making wine in his basement in 1995 with rave reviews.IMG_1555 In 2010, during a trip to Charleston, South Carolina for his son's wedding, Chuck visited a winery there and was inspired to take his love of wine and winemaking and turn it into something bigger. He and his wife, Chris, had purchased land in 2005 for a family farm in Marydel, Delaware, which he decided to turn into Harvest Ridge Winery.
The name "Harvest Ridge" was the original name of the farm and was retained for the winery. The first vines were planted in 2011 - Chardonnay, Viognier, Malbec, and Merlot. The winery opened to the public (as Delaware's fourth winery) on November 1, 2013.
Harvest Ridge Winery's property spans the border of two states - Delaware and Maryland. It is on the historic Mason-Dixon Line.IMG_1558 In fact, one of the most unique features of the property is the existence of one of the Mason-Dixon's original witness stone and crown markers - number 47 - located on the property.
