Open: Year-round

Two pygmy goats, Never and Epernay, inspired Norm to name his winery Flying Goat Cellars.

The goats were his pets and lawnmowers and came to be a source of entertainment and enjoyment, with their unrestrained spiral loops, flipper turns and straight-legged leaps. When pondering a name for his new wines and brand, Norm wanted to project fun, enjoyment, and happiness. While many people put their own name or their children's name on their label or vineyard, Norm's playful spirit opted to name it after his kids. His kids, of course, were those two pygmy goat pets, who had always inspired him and made him laugh.

The winery was "launched" with this same spirit of enthusiasm and Flying Goat Cellars was born.
