New Hampshire wine refers to wine made from grapes grown in the U.S. state of New Hampshire. The wine industry in New Hampshire began in 1994 when two wineries, Jewell Towne Vineyards and Flag Hill Winery, each produced their first vintages from locally-grown grapes. New Hampshire continues to be among the smallest wine-producing states in the nation, with just four commercial wineries and no designated American Viticultural Areas.[1]
