About Your Experience

As an urban winery we have made the choice to source rather than grow our own grapes. Our

winemaker has a relationship with a number of growers and sources about 85% of our grapes locally.

Not all grape varietals will grow well in Maryland’s climate so we do source some grapes and juice from

farther afield.

Yes. All of our wines are vegan, we do not use any animal products in the winemaking process.

The Greek names of some of our wines represent family values. They honor winemaker Georgia Callis’

father Anthony “Bole” who brought those values, along his traditional wine making skills with him when he emigrated from Greece and passed them down to his daughter and son-in-law who are now passing them down to their children.

Yes, and many other countries with a long history of wine production that are for some reason are under-represented on wine lists and in wine shops in favor of mass produced heavily marketed brands. Visit us to find something just a little different to pour tonight.

No. The Urban Winery is an independent, family run winery. The word “Urban” refers to the location, not out in the countryside as many wineries are, and has become very popular in other business names as well.

Yes. The Urban Winery’s main focus is on wine and we carry over 30 wines that we produce here at the winery. We also carry a number of other Maryland wineries and an eclectic assortment of international wines but if you are feeling like drinking something else this evening there are other options. We also feature Maryland craft brews and local distillery products in our tasting room and in the wine shop. You won’t find any international mass produced brands here though and we do not offer traditional bar style cocktail service in our tasting room.

No outside food or beverages may be brought in or consumed on our premises.
