WINES

The idea for the winery came about from the question, “What are you going to do with the old barn? which was posed to us many times over the years. The answer varied depending on who was asked, but the winery concept always seemed to be part of the answer.

The name Grace Winery and the dragonfly logo are a tribute to proprietor Chris Le Vine’s sister Gracie, who owned Sweetwater Farm prior to Chris and his wife Vicki taking over the property in 1999.

Our wines are inspired by French traditions but firmly rooted in Pennsylvania. Our boutique-style wines are handcrafted by head winemaker Andrew Yingst. Mostly estate grown, our wine carries a sense of place, imbuing our wine with the flavors of the land at Grace Winery.

Andrew Yingst has served as Winemaker at Grace Winery since 2018, bringing his unique background in agriculture and geography to the art of winemaking. His journey in the wine industry began in 2014 after a transformative trip to New Zealand sparked his passion for viticulture and enology.

During his tenure at Grace Winery, Andrew has elevated the portfolio with several innovative additions, including a distinctive Sauvignon Blanc, an elegant Sparkling program, and the prestigious Vintner’s Reserve blend. His dedication to craftsmanship has resulted in award-winning wines that showcase the unique terroir of Pennsylvania.

Andrew is a passionate advocate for Pennsylvania wines, committed to highlighting the region’s potential and distinctive character through each vintage he produces at Grace Winery.
