For seven
generations the Wright Family has called coastal
Currituck County home. Much has changed since original
settler Jacob Wright shipwrecked on the shores of
Duck, but the family still honors the farming
tradition established hundreds of years ago, Sanctuary
Vineyards is the product of centuries of farming
experience and a dedication to a dream of
producing
world-class wines in Currituck County.
Sanctuary Vineyards is located on a quaint seaside
farm where you see rows of corn competing with
Cabernet and migratory snow geese nesting among the
Sangiovese. Ten acres of grapes are nestled among
hundreds of acres of farmland and wildlife
impoundments that we like to call “The Sanctuary.”
Varieties include: Syrah, Tempranillo, Viognier,
Norton and the classic Muscadine.
The Sanctuary Vineyards tasting room is located inside
the historic Cotton Gin in Jarvisburg, NC. On
weekends, the cellars are open for complimentary
tastings. Coastal Collage and The Lightkeeper are
poured, as well as an assortment of
delicious Moonrise Bay wines.
