*What's long been my personal vision has finally become a realityy.  In the Fall of 2004, we opened what I hoped will quickly become recognized as North Carolina's signature winery, Childress Vineyards.  Nestled at the gateway of the Yadkin Valley, Childress Vineyard is planted on 65 acres of fertile farmland, and our winery sites at the crossroadsof two popular routes, U.S. 52 and U.S. 64, jus west of Lexington.  To help create some of the finest wines in the country, I've hired some of the best people in the wine industry.  After all, in my three decades in the world of stock car racing, I've learned that you're only as successful as the team with which you surround yourself.  We'd like you to discover Childress Vineyards, in one of America's most exciting grape-growing regions.  Come and taste for yourself.
