Jessica Youngblood is the owner of Youngblood Vineyard in Ray, a family farm she and her husband turned into a vineyard in 2016. It’s about 25 acres of grapes that create their 12 100-percent estate-grown wines, which you can taste in their tasting room or restaurant, or take home to enjoy. The tasting room is open year-round, but Jessica is looking forward to the warmer months, when the patio opens and there are more outdoor events, like their famous fireworks around the Fourth of July.
