History

The land where Flag Hill is located has been farmed since the 18th century, and was formerly a dairy farm. Frank Reinhold Sr. bought 180 acres (0.73 km2) in the area in 1950, and in 1985 his son Frank Reinhold Jr. took over the property with the hope of growing grapes, which he began planting in 1990. The first harvest took place in 1994, and was released in 1996.

Flag Hill winery was the second winery to open in New Hampshire, preceded only by Jewell Towne Vineyards.

A barn dating to the late 18th century hosts the winery and tasting room. There are 21 acres (85,000 m2) of vineyards, and the winery produced about 4,000 cases of wine annually as of 2011, as well as 2,000 cases of liquor at its distillery.

The winery grows French-American hybrids such as DeChaunac, Marechal Foch and Vignoles, as well as American hybrids such as Cayuga White and La Crescent. These varietals are more resistant to cold winters.
