Childress Vineyards is one of the most prominent wineries in North Carolina’s re-emerging wine industry that has grown from 21 to more than 100 wineries since the year 2000.
Childress Vineyards features over 70 acres of vineyards and 15 varieties of European Vitis vinifera cultivars at two vineyards sites: Richard’s Hampton Road Estate in Davidson County and Vineyard Crossing at the winery site. The terroir, with its combination of humid climate, long growing season and gravely, red clay soil are the key natural features of Childress Vineyards, producing a broad range of over 30 wines to appeal to both the introductory palate and the seasoned taster.
From the selection of the grapes to the care in winemaking, Childress Vineyards takes meticulous steps to bring world-class wines to the market. Those efforts have paid off in competitions from New York to California in which Childress Vineyards wines have won numerous gold medals since opening in 2004, including Double Gold, Concordance Gold and Best of Show honors for wines produced in every category. Total medal count in the years of operation has exceeded 750, including NC Governor’s Cup awards, acknowledging Childress Vineyards as the premier vintner in the state.

We came up here for my son’s birthday had a wonderful time ,during the wine tasting and the bistro was wonderful. Loved the menu and out waitress Nautica was wonderful. I would definitely come back.
Today my wife and I enjoyed our 41st wedding anniversary at the Childress Bistro. The service and food were impeccable. Our waiter Tyler was very accommodating and knowledgeable. We even had the privilege of dining close to Mr. Childress himself! We will definitely be back……first class hospitality Mr. Childress. You have a great team on and off the track. Great job Tyler!
