 The petite winery of
Irving-House Vineyards will hold its third "Blessing of the Vine"
Festival this November. This Charleston, South Carolina event is
actually just 20 minutes from downtown Charleston in the beautiful rural
setting of Wadmalaw Island, SC. The Blessing of the Vine" ceremony
will host a wine tasting, grape stomping, live music by the
Coppertone's, local BBQ prepared by the infamous Black-Jack Barbeque
Team, and last but not least a priest will bless the vines in hope of a
terrific crop of grapes and wine for 2006.
Irving-House Vineyards is the only one of its kind in Charleston and only
one of a few estate wineries in South Carolina. They produce Live Oak
Reserve which is a Red Muscadine with a blend that is a balance of soft
subtle light fruit flavors. Next they offer Magnolia which is a
White Muscadine explained as a light refreshing, crisp sweet fruit
flavored white wine. They also offer Mullet Hall Red which is
another Red Muscadine known as a dry red
table wine with a lively fruity flavor distinctive of the Muscadine. Second to
last is Palmetto which is a Red Muscadine with a sweet rich light bodied
fruity muscadine flavor.
Last in the Irving-House Vineyards portfolio is Tara Gold which is a
White Muscadine with semi-dry, mellow, and light fruitiness
flavors. These five
distinctive Muscadine wines will be available for tasting at the
"Blessing of the Vine" ceremony November 11, 2006.
