Cat's Paw Winery
John Burks is the owner of Cat’s Paw Winery in Rock Hill, SC. After making wine for several years, his friends finally convinced him to open to the public in 2016. Since then, Cat’s Paw Winery has remained committed to producing unique wines of the first quality, and that commitment has earned us the #1 ranking in the state of South Carolina by Choice Wineries.

The winery's name is inspired by Joey, John's first orange tabby. When John needed a mascot for the winery, the choice was obvious! Joey went over the Rainbow Bridge in 2018, and while no cat can ever replace Joey, John has opened his heart and home to several rescue cats over the years. Be prepared to meet Percy, Simon, and Morris during your next visit!
