This will be a three-part review of Dynamis Winery in Jonesville, North Carolina.
One evening, while having dinner with friends, they told us about this great winery. Our anniversary was coming up, so I scheduled a weekend of a tasting for Saturday and their monthly family dinner for Sunday. https://www.dynamisestatewines.com/reserve-a-tasting/
Dynamis is on the top of the mountain in Jamesville, NC, about a 35-minute drive from Winston Salem off I-77. The owner bought the mountain, which comprises 192 acres of vineyards, 5 acres of apple orchards, and 1 acre of a peach orchard. The drive to the top of the mountain is beautiful and the setting once you get to the top for the tasting is breathtaking. The hill is the highest point in Yadkin Valley, and you can see for miles around.
Our friends said that this is the only winery where they joined the "Wine Club". Reservations are required. The wines we tasted were exceptional. We ordered a charcuterie plate to go along with our wine tasting. Since I was driving, we had a single tasting, which my wife and I shared. All the wines that we tasted were wonderful. The staff is very attentive without being overbearing. Since the day was very warm, we sat inside but were still able to enjoy the beautiful view. There are tables outside, which at this time of the year are perfect. https://www.dynamisestatewines.com/browse-our-wines/
On Sunday we drove back up to Dynamis for the monthly "Sunday Supper Series". The weather was beautiful, and again we were able to take in the gorgeous view. The "Suppers" are prepared by visiting chefs. Our meal was very good and a great ending to our Anniversary Weekend. The price was $50 a plate, and wine and dessert (peach ice cream), were an additional charge. We ordered one of the rosé wines that we had tried the day before. We suggest starting your experience with a tasting (please note when making your reservation). On October 27th, the Sunday Supper with Damascus Culinary Concepts will be Beef Bourguignon (Beef Short Rib Braised in Dynamis Estate's 2019 "The Mountain") with Baby Carrots, Pearl Onions, Forest Mushrooms, Bacon Lardons.
Like our friends, we also joined the wine club. There are two levels: quarterly, there is a three-bottle selection and a six-bottle selection. Dynamis selects the wines and vintages. The staff informed us that our wines would be available on September 7 and could be picked up at a party at the owner's home at the top of the mountain. When we got to the party, we were greeted by the staff like we were members of their family. We were also treated to one of the most beautiful homes I have ever seen. I have included some pictures. The home is a beautiful stone and wood house, with a magnificent swimming pool, waterfall, and a shooting fire. The kitchen is spectacular. https://www.dynamisestatewines.com/join-our-wine-club/
They served heavy hors d'oeuvres and wines. Other friends were at the party, so we enjoyed the afternoon, view, and food, and my wife was able to enjoy all the different wines since once again I was driving and didn't drink enough. The attendees listened to short presentations from two winemakers; they described the wines that they were making, and which will be available in the future.
We had a great day, at a lovely spot. The home was stunning, and the view of Yadkin Valley from the top of the mountain was spectacular.
If you like wine, spectacular views, and enjoyable afternoons I strongly recommend Dynamis.
