Our customers are mainly people who are 21 to 65 years old. They come from all walks of life and usually enjoy traveling and attending festivals. We also welcome tourists.

Our Mission
Holly Ridge Winery strives to provide high-quality, award-winning wines that are handcrafted onsite. We aim to offer something for every palate—be it traditional reds, fruit-infused wines, white varietals, or port wines.
Humble Beginnings
Humble Beginnings
Our founder, Curtis Wallin, is a classically trained musician and performer. Initially, wine was only his hobby. His passion for this distinct alcoholic beverage eventually led him to establish a winery. He runs the business with assistance from his children, Rebecca and Chris, who have education and experience in Biological and Chemical Sciences. Chris is also a winemaker for another winery near Nashville, Tennessee.
