Hickory Hill Vineyards and Winery is family owned and has ties that go back to the very beginning of Smith Mountain Lake. Owners Roger and Judy Furrow are natives of Roanoke VA. You could say Roger’s father had a hand in creating Smith Mountain Lake. He was a part of the crew who helped built Smith Mountain Lake Dam. Twenty-Five years ago Roger and Judy planted their first 250 vines, now this vineyard is into the second generation and going strong!

Hickory Hills has a lot of history behind it. It was actually Virginia’s 75th winery and the Second winery in Bedford County!! Hickory Hills is a part of the Bedford Wine Trail as well. With the fall crush just starting to ramp up, there is a unique aspect at Hickory Hills that is hard to find anywhere else. You can become a part of the harvest by being a Hickory Hill Harvester!

Hickory Hill Harvester started in 2002. The club consists of people who are willing to help out picking grapes during the month of September. To be a Harvester you must be available to help pick grapes at least 2 days during the harvest. Anyone who is a part of the HH Harvester club will receive an invitation to a private party with barrel tasting of the wines YOU helped make! If you want to be a part of the club call Judy or Wendy at 540-296-1393!

Actually getting to help with the grape harvest is definitely a way to find your thrill at Hickory Hill! It isn’t everyday that you get to help create Award Winning Wines!! So come visit Smith Mountain Lake, and if you like it, move here! If the thought of creating your own special wine makes your heart skip a beat, check out the Savoy-Lee! Call Vicki Millehan, she can give you all the details on owning your own Bedford County Winery!!
