Annual Fall Harvest Festival and Grape Stomp

Live music with The Sand Band, arts crafts and food vendors, award winning wines, grape stomping and picking. Fun for the entire family!

Cypress Bend Vineyards is one of North Carolina’s best award-winning vineyards and wineries.

Nestled in the beautiful, eastern Piedmont coastal plain area of North Carolina, Cypress Bend nurtures 35 acres of vineyards.  The vineyards are located on a portion of our family’s historic 1000 acres steeped in rich farmland known as "Riverton" on the banks of the Lumber River.  For hundreds of years the "Lumbee" River has meandered alongside and trims a portion of the vineyard’s borders with native cypress trees and sweet Southern aromas.  Since 2005 Cypress Bend Vineyards has opened its doors and welcomed thousands of visitors to taste and enjoy the many award winning wines and to partake of its many cultural and musical events.
Every fall since 2005, visitors flock to our Annual Fall Harvest Festival and Grape Stomp.  Visitors have experienced the true essence of making wine through our Vineyard Wagon Tours, Winery Tours and most of all by experiencing firsthand the art of grape stomping with our winemaker!  We bestow the honor of "King and Queen of the Stomp" upon two lucky contestants that out stomp the rest!  Artsand Craft Vendors along with local food vendors bring the spirit of a true NC fair to the day!  No festival is ever complete without live music!  Enjoy the sounds of one of North Carolina’s best beach bands to help dance away the day!  Best of all, admission is free!  We hope you come and help us celebrate our Annual Fall Harvest Festival and Grape Stomp!!
