Yadkin Valley Wine – The Scenic 421 Corridor

Yadkin Valley Wine: The Scenic 421 Corridor

If the Yadkin Valley had aMain Street, this section ofUSHighway 421would be it. This trail takes you along a scenic stretch of the highway, fromthe beautifulmountain outpost of racing legend Benny Parsons’ Rendezvous Ridge to Westbend Vineyards on the outskirts of Winston-Salem, where NorthCarolina’s post-Prohibition wine renaissance began back in 1972. In between, you’ll visit the small, family-owned vineyards of Alison Oaks, and stop in at the Hanover Park Vineyard, where owners Michael and Amy Helton make a Mourvedre that reminds them of their honeymoon in the south of France.
