Fall 2026 Release: Founder’s Day
November 15 @ 2:00 pm
$35Event Navigation
Join us as we close out Fall Release Weekend with a celebration of where it all began.
Founder’s Day honors Dennis Lanahan, who founded Mountain Brook Vineyards in 2002, and the work he and his wife put into this land. Their vision laid the foundation for everything we are today, and for the growth of the Tryon Foothills AVA itself. This is our first event of its kind, and we can’t think of a better way to say thank you.
Mr. Lanahan will be with us to share the story of the property, the vines, and the wines. Owners Vickie and Jonathan Redgrave and winemaker Dave Coventry will join him, and our yellow lab mascot, Cooper, will be making the rounds too.
- A guided wine tasting with the people behind the wines
The history of the vineyard, from the first vines to today’s releases
A buffet lunch, catered for the occasion
