Muscadine Wine

Duplin Winery has been in business in Southeastern North Carolina for a number of years.  They recently opened an establishment to sell their products in North Myrtle Beach.  This painted trailer is currently parked in their parking lot.  I believe all their wines are made from Muscadine grapes.  Their vineyards and production facilities are about 1 1/2 hours away.
Origin: The muscadine grape is native to the southeastern United States, found in the wild from Delaware to the Gulf of Mexico and westward to Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. Many older varieties were selections from the wild, but the Georgia Agricultural Experiment Station and the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture have introduced a number of improved varieties that have become standard cultivars. The earliest named variety was Scuppernong, found growing wild in northeastern North Carolina in 1810 by Dr. Calvin Jones. Scuppernong has become another name for all muscadine grapes. Commercial production of muscadine grapes is essentially limited to the U.S. Southeast.
