Enjoy epic wines and complimentary
private tastings at Mystic Hills Vineyard
From the time they planted their
Mystic Hills Vineyard in 2007 and
released their first bottles in 2014,
Joel and Judy Cox have consistently
demonstrated a passion for produc-
ing acclaimed wines and unsur-
passed private, complimentary wine
tasting. Their winery is a family-run
operation with their children and
grandchildren pitching in by helping
with the vineyard, overseeing tast-
ings, and managing the wine club.
“We have so much love for
people, and our private tastings
allow us to spend quality time with
each person or group,” Judy said.
“These tastings are complimentary
and by appointment only, giving us
the chance to
get to know
one another,
share our
story, and
just enjoy be-
ing together.”

“a youthful
attitude” to

and new friends who come visit us
at the vineyard,” he said.
