Their wines act as a reflection of their land, hometown, and family, and they are passionate about sharing their love for wine with visitors from across the state and the country. The vineyard itself overlooks Lewisburg and you’ll find it’s a beautiful site to visit.

Spyglass Ridge Winery
Tom and Tammy Webb are the owners of Spyglass Ridge Winery, which is another of our favorite local businesses to support. When they started the business, they hand-planted 20,000 grape vines, and at the time, they would sell the grapes to other winemakers. Since that time, they’ve expanded their business and brought the wine production process in-house, creating small batches of wine for themselves to begin with before expanding their operations. The winery now welcomes guests from throughout the state and country, and the couple love sharing their expertise and knowledge with new visitors. They host a range of events and functions here throughout the year, so there’s always something new to see and do when you next visit.
