Welcome to Old Rock Quarry Winery
About Us
About ORQ Winery
Come enjoy delicious wines in a warm and friendly atmosphere. All of our wines are made in small handcrafted batches right here onsite. We are situated on 3 acres with a tasting room that seats approximately 16 wine lovers and an outside area that can accommodate up to 40 more. Also outside you will find two fire pits, to enjoy those cozy nights under the stars as you sip on a glass of your favorite ORQ wine!
We are located on a dead end road right off of I-26, exit 41, just follow the signs to the Winery (Frontier Road). We offer on-site parking, handicap accessibility and additional parking on the road.
We also offer special occasion parties by appointment.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Good news! We have received approval from the state to open up our outdoor seating area! So starting tomorrow we will be able to pop corks, pour glasses and provide wine tastings again, but outside.
As we ease back into the swing of things we appreciate everyone's understanding, patience and cooperation in ensuring the safety and health of those around you, including but not limited to, your fellow customers and your friendly neighborhood winery staff. So please just take a moment to read through some of the important guidelines we will be adhering to, that will allow us to keep all of you and all of us safe and healthy, as well as allowing us to remain open.
1.) No tastings or consumption of any kind will be allowed inside. (Outside only!)
2.) Tables will remain 10 feet apart and will be sanitized between guests.
3.) For tastings, we will be limiting groups to 6 or less people.
4.) Disposable wine glasses will be used, except with tastings where you receive a free logo glass to take home. (If not doing a tasting and do not want to use a disposable glass, you may purchase a glass to take home afterwards.) This will help protect our staff from having to handle used glasses.
5.) The number of people inside at a time will be limited. The floor will be taped off to ensure the required 6 foot social distance is maintained.
6.) Just use common sense and please be respectful to everyone around you! Wash your hands regularly and maintain the 6 foot social distance.
For anyone who would still like an order ready ahead of time call/text 443-735-1414.
We have missed everyone so much and are extremely excited to see each of you! Stay safe and stay healthy friends! 🙂🍷
May is ALS Awareness Month
Did you know, according to the ALS Association, every 90 minutes someone in the U.S. is diagnosed with ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis)? Also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease, ALS is a progressive, incurable disease of the nervous system that is 100% fatal, generally taking it's victims within 2 to 5 years after onset of symptoms. This brutal killer can affect any race and any gender of any age, even though 40 - 65 is the most common age range of those diagnosed.
The goal of ALS Awareness Month is to spread awareness and to help raise funds for researching treatments and a cure. After having watched multiple members of my own family succumb to this vicious disease, this cause is one I hold close at heart. That is why here at Old Rock Quarry Winery, on May 1st we will be releasing our new dessert wine in honor of my mother, "Peggy's Chocolate Cherry Decadence." $2.00 for every bottle sold and $1.00 for every glass sold during the month of May will be donated to the ALS Association.
For further information on this deadly disease, to find your state's local chapter, or to donate, please visit the ALS Association's website at www.alsa.org. Together we can help strike out ALS!
