Carroll County Visitor's Guide - 2018

AT T R A C T I O N S 3 Old Westminster Winery 1550 Old Westminster Road, Westminster 410-881-4656 • www.OldWestminster.com In our vineyard, everything is done by hand. From winter pruning to summer hedging, weed control to harvest – it’s all powered by sweat, not oil. We believe this method of farming makes possible a level of care few other vineyards experience. Our fingerprints are on every vine, every grape and every bottle. In our winery, the goal is balance. We achieve this by timeliness and attention to detail; it’s hands-on. From dumping grape clusters into the destemmer, and hand sorting single berries as they run across the sorting table, to transferring grapes using gravity rather than pumps – it’s not the easy way, but we believe wine reflects its maker’s passion. Saturdays and Sundays Noon to 5pm. Summer: Fridays 5pm to 10pm. 4 Serpent Ridge Vineyard 2962 Nicodemus Road, Westminster 410-848-6511 • www.SerpentRidge.com Serpent Ridge Vineyard is Westminster’s first vineyard winery and offers award-winning wines, premium wine tastings, wine by the glass and retail sales.
