“Up in the wild, untamed hills of North Georgia, the land has a way of keeping secrets—secrets whispered through the roots of ancient vines that clutch the red clay soil like an old soul hanging on to its last breath. It’s a place where the grapes ripen under a merciless sun, and each bottle of wine tells a tale—some sweet, some bitter, but all of them true. Today, we take you on a winding, dirt road journey through these vineyards, where time moves slow, but the stories age like good wine—rich and haunting. Welcome to Cornbread and Buttermilk. Pull up a chair and let’s pour you a glass of Southern history.”
