Founded in 1999, Wolf Mountain Vineyards began with the Boegner family’s vision to create exceptional wines in Georgia’s high-altitude terrain. Their gravity-flow winery was completed in 2001, and the first vintage was produced in 2002, leading to a full opening in 2003 that sold out within eight months. Today, the family-run business produces over 5,000 cases annually, maintaining a commitment to quality and craftsmanship. The Boegner family operates the estate with deep roots in the region, with E. Karl Boegner as Winemaker Emeritus, his wife Linda managing weddings, their son Brannon as Winemaker, daughter Lindsey overseeing hospitality, and her husband Stephen managing marketing and the Wine Club.
The winery is located on Wolf Mountain Trail, situated in the scenic North Georgia Mountains, just under 60 miles from downtown Atlanta. Its hillside vineyards, fieldstone winery, and elevated views create an ideal backdrop for weddings, brunches, and gourmet dining. Known for its Napa-like elegance and exceptional service, Wolf Mountain Vineyards continues to be a standout in Georgia’s wine landscape, combining tradition, craftsmanship, and a welcoming atmosphere in a setting that feels both intimate and grand.
