Black Ankle Vineyards is a family-owned winery established in 2010. Located in the rolling hills of Maryland’s Catoctin Mountains, the vineyard focuses on producing estate-grown wines with an emphasis on cool-climate varietals like Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Riesling. The winery is known for its commitment to sustainable viticulture practices and its picturesque setting which regularly hosts events alongside wine tastings. Black Ankle Vineyards actively participates in the local agricultural community and aims to showcase the potential of Maryland winemaking. The vineyard's name originates from a distinctive dark staining found on the ankles of workers during harvest due to the iron-rich soil.
