Flippin Creek Vineyards — the area's only commercial vineyard. Nestled in the rich farm lands of Vine Grove, Kentucky, the vineyard is so named for the gentle freshwater Flippin Creek that flows adjacent to the vineyards, nourishing our grapes. Flippin Creek Vineyards is the creation of lifelong Vine Grove residents and farmers, Jack Hughes and his family. The vineyards are currently in their third season, planted on former tobacco acreage. The vineyard's astounding success and unique transformation has won Flippin Creek Vineyards the acclaim of the University of Kentucky; Mr. Hughes was asked to give guest lectures on the vineyard at the college's Department of Agriculture January 2005. |
