Highland Manor is Tennessee's oldest winery.
Over one hundred years ago, as early settlers first tamed the wilderness of the Cumberland Plateau, a curious lot of Victorian Utopians established the first vineyards in the area near the historic colony of Rugby. There, they made wines that won a number of gold medals at wine-tasting competitions in the 1880's.
About the same time, German settlers in the Allardt community of Fentress County brought their wine making skills to this new territory. These new residents established personal vineyards and made some excellent wines for their own use.
The hint is a complete spoiler, however you will have to put on your thinking cap to figure out its reference.
