This a very short ( for now ) list of the few wineries owned and operated by African-Americans in South Carolina. I hope to discover more and perhaps visit them all for a sip and some conversation. With over 8000 wineries in the US less than 5% are owned by people of color. Most are on the west coast in California, near New York, One in Virginia, one (Frichette Winery, owned by a fellow Winthrop Alum) is located in Benton City. WA and a sprinkle in Georgia. A quick google search will net you a more exhaustive list. Click Here Enjoy the fruits of your labor! Be merry
