Wine production in Northeast Georgia dates back to the 19th century when European settlers brought their winemaking traditions and planted vineyards in the region. During Prohibition, wine production was banned in the United States, and many of the vineyards in Northeast Georgia were destroyed or abandoned.

Currahee Vineyard and Winery
From the prehistoric Mound Builders, to the Cherokee, to the 506th Airborne Infantry Regiment running "3 miles up, 3 miles down" - the famous Band of Brothers, Currahee Mountain has witnessed it all. Now Ol' Currahee watches over our sun-kissed vineyards at its feet.
We are a small, family owned winery creating hand-crafted wines from Vinifera, Muscadine and other native grapes. We invite you to enjoy our award wining wines, gaze at the mountain and become a part of the Currahee story.
