The next time you walk into the newly-renovated Franklin Hill Vineyards store in Lower Nazareth Township, remember this: it’s one of four Lehigh Valley stores that sells wine from the oldest vineyard in the area.

The store, which can be found at 3625 Nazareth Road, has been repainted, a new hardwood floor has been dropped in, a new wine cabinet has been installed and some of the exclusive merchandise has been spread out for easier customer access -- and probably for some good feng shui.

Franklin Hill Vineyards, which was founded in 1976, makes 24 varieties of red, white, rose, sparkling and specialty wines. The vineyard’s top-seller, Sir Walter’s Red, is made from the Chambourcin grape, a French-American hybrid designed to grow well in east-coast soil.

This year’s new addition to the wine list is Pomegranate Peach, a specialty wine made with 100 percent pomegranate juice. Also returning to the repertoire is Breathless, a port-style red wine with a warm berry flavor.

Among the various merchandise the store sells are all sorts of wine-oriented accessories; things like replaceable corks, colorful and ornate wine glasses and wine purses, which are hinged bags large enough to hold a standard wine bottle.

The store also sells Robert Rothschild dips from Ohio, Scentation candles from Arkansas, and wine-enthusiast apparel like T-shirts and hats.

According to manager Michael DiLorenzo, fall is a great time for customers to stop by for some wine.

“Harvest has started,” he said. “Harvest season is a good time -- people start mulling in the fall and winter.”

“Mulling” refers to the process of combining wine, usually red, with spices like cinnamon or cloves and serving it warm for a delicious cider-like treat.

The Grape Spot is open Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. All varieties of Franklin Hill wines can be purchased at the store for about $10 to $14. Tastings are always available.

Several area establishments serve Franklin Hills wine, including Big Woody’s in Forks Township, the Bethlehem Brew Works, and the newly-renovated Cherry Hill Hotel in Bushkill Township, to name a few.
