The vineyards and winery were founded in 1998 by three middle school teachers looking for something interesting to do as retirement approached.  Luckily, agriculture, chemistry and social sciences were their areas of expertise. Waterman Winery produces award winning wines that are made from homegrown grapes right here in DeKalb County. They offer wine tasting events, and tours upon request and can host outdoor or indoor events. Open  April – December.
