Frequently Asked Questions

What does the name Elevation 966 refer to?
The name references Greenville's approximate elevation above sea level, which is notably higher than much of South Carolina and contributes to the cooler temperatures that influence how grapes grow in the Upstate region. It's a nod to the local geography and what makes wines from this area distinctive.
Is Elevation 966 located near downtown Greenville?
Yes, Greenville is a compact and walkable city, and the winery is accessible for visitors staying downtown or exploring the broader metro area. Its urban location makes it an easy add to any Greenville itinerary.
Can I book Elevation 966 for a private party or corporate event?
The winery accommodates private events for groups who want a distinctive setting in the Greenville area. Reach out directly to discuss dates, group size, and any catering or staffing arrangements you might need.
What makes Upstate South Carolina wines different from other SC wines?
The higher elevation and cooler temperatures in the Upstate allow for slower grape ripening, which can produce more balanced acidity and complexity compared to warmer, lower-lying parts of the state. It's a different wine experience than what you'd find in the Lowcountry or Midlands.
Does Elevation 966 offer a wine club?
Wine clubs are a common offering at Upstate wineries, typically providing members with regular allocations, event invitations, and discounts on bottles. Contact Elevation 966 directly to ask about their specific membership options and what each tier includes.
How long does a typical wine tasting take?
Most guided tastings run between 45 minutes and an hour and a half, depending on the number of wines in the flight and how much time you spend chatting with the guide. It's worth building in extra time if you plan to browse the retail selection afterward.
