Our story begins in 2011, when we purchased Misty Oaks Estate from its previous 40 year owners. It’s quiet sense of peace, brought on by its rolling hills, ancient oaks, and morning mist, entranced us and we knew we were home. In our early years, we kept with the tradition of growing hay but feeling uninspired, we chose to plant a vineyard instead. Under the careful guidance of our vineyard management team we planted our first rows of Cabernet Sauvignon. Over time, we watched the land, vines and microclimates come together into a space much more vibrant than we had ever imagined, and we fell even deeper in love.

Our wines may be how we began, but they are not our end. Our wines gave us a start, but it was our shared experiences and passions that inspired us most. We wanted to create a shared space where laughter, stories, and meaningful connections can bloom. The Misty Oaks Experience is built on community. Be it through a meal, a glass, or anything else we aim to cherish the simple joy of being present. Here strangers become friends and friends truly become family. Each step we take is guided by intention and heart, crafting wines to elevate everyday moments. 

In 2021, we chose not to sell a small portion of our harvest and to make our very first bottle of wine. We kept it simple, building mostly on patience and curiosity, and the end result amazed us. We had created a wine that was vibrant, expressive, and hinted at some real potential. From there we were certain that we wanted to create ‘Old World’ wines that elevate every moment in life. With that goal in mind we began crafting the Misty Oaks Vineyards Experience. 

Experience

With our wines as the initial bridge, our connections have become our core. The shared loves, stories, and voices of those in our community have made us something that goes well beyond good wine. At the end of the day everything we do is in the pursuit of genuine connection, something that stays with you long after the glass is empty.
