Collectors bottle of Marechal foch Red Wine from Banner Elk Winery signed by the owner, Dick Wolfe. 

Banner Elk Winery is situated close to downtown in a picturesque valley surrounded by mountains. Founded in 2006, it was the first commercial winery in Avery and Watauga counties.

Winemaker Dick Wolfe makes a variety of wines from grapes grown on property and sourced from other local vineyards. The Marechal Foch red wine  is made from French-American hybrid grapes that produce a red wine with intense flavors and color. Banner Elk Red, a winemaker’s choice blend of Marechal Foch, sangiovese and merlot, has won a gold medal at the International Eastern Wine Competition in Sonoma, California, and was named the best red hybrid at the North Carolina State Fair in 2011.

Our Marechal Foch red wine is made from estate grown French American hybrid grapes. Aged for ten months on French Oak produces a wine of intense flavor and deep color.
