Pahrump Valley Winery

Don't think grapes can grow in the desert? Well, think again. The Pahrump Valley Winery opened in 1990 and the first vines were planted shortly thereafter. Unfortunately, wild horses thought these young vines were dinner and they fell victim to this herd. The vines were lost only to be replanted a couple of years later, this time with a fence! In the fall of 2002, we discovered the winery and felt it could have a bright future. The winery suffered from neglect and very little wine was actually made here. In January 2003 we took control of the ailing winery and began the long and much needed process of upgrading and renovating the entire property. We installed a brand new, fully functional wine production cellar including new stainless steel fermentation tanks, bottling line, grape crushing and pressing equipment, refrigeration and cooling system, new oak barrel room for aging wine, all new tasting room and expansion, guest lounge, substantial new vineyard plantings and upgraded the landscaped grounds. This complete and total renovation of the winery also included a new state of the art kitchen and complete remodel for our new restaurant, Symphony's.
