Appalachian State University was established in 1899 and our founders shared the dream of helping children in North Carolina’s “lost provinces” discover educational opportunity to match the splendor of the mountains in which they lived. Its passion and desire to educate has distinguished App State as the premier public undergraduate institution in North Carolina and is known for its special combination of people and place.

Enjoying a glass of wine from Mountain Born Cellars provides our community with a moment to reflect on our great legacy, celebrate the victories of the present, and embrace the next step in life’s journey.

We introduce you to Mountain Born Cellars. This 2021 Chardonnay from California is a beautifully balanced wine, offering vibrant aromas of ripe apple, pear, and citrus, with subtle notes of vanilla and toasted almond.
