Adams County Winery

About Adams County Winery

Adams County Winery has been crafting award-winning wines since 1975, making it one of Pennsylvania's pioneer wineries. With over 20 different wines ranging from dry reds to sweet fruit wines, there's a bottle (or case) for every palate.

The main winery sits on a picturesque farm in Orrtanna, surrounded by vineyards and orchards. This is where the magic happens - grapes are crushed, juice ferments, and wine ages in the cellars. The tasting room offers a full selection plus behind-the-scenes glimpses of the winemaking process. The peaceful farm setting includes outdoor seating areas perfect for sipping wine and soaking in rural Adams County.

For those who prefer the energy of downtown Gettysburg, the Gettysburg Wine Shop at 25 Chambersburg Street offers the full Adams County Winery portfolio in a convenient location. After exploring the battlefield or shopping along the squares, stop in for a tasting flight or pick up bottles to enjoy back at camp.

Popular wines include their fruit wines made from local apples, peaches, and berries - perfect for those who find traditional wines too dry. Their Tears of Gettysburg (a sweet blush) and Patriot's Port are perennial customer favorites. Drier wine lovers appreciate the Chambourcin red and award-winning whites.
