Things to do / Travel Guide
There are a few excellent wineries scattered around the Georgia and South Carolina coast region. Most of these wineries specialize in Muscadine wines from the Muscadine grape, a local variety native to and cultivated only in the South, of which there are white, black, and red varieties. Cultivation of this special grape for the sake of wine dates back to the Spanish of 16th-century St. Augustine, Florida. Muscadines grow all over the southeast, from Florida to North Carolina.
On “Charleston's back porch,” Wadmalaw Island, lies the Irvin-House Vineyards. This winery also specializes in Muscadine wines; there are four different varieties of the grape that are used to produce five different kinds of wine. These range from semi-dry to regular sweet, and include both white and red.
