A passion for vineyards and fine wines began many years ago when Jim was stationed in Europe in the early 1980's. Sandra and Jim's appreciation for wine continued for nearly 20 years, leading to a retirement in North Georgia, and establishing a small home vineyard. After a brief period of home winemaking, an opportunity evolved when Jim and Sandra bought the 29 acre tract where the now Cottage Vineyard and Winery dream came to life.
While clearing the land and getting the first vines planted, work concurrently started on making the first wines in anticipation of opening their tasting room in 2013. By forming relationships with other Georgia wineries, meeting winemaker, Joe Smith, Sandra's son Nathan joining the team, and Georgia London spear-headed the vineyard, the Cottage family came to life.
