With the exciting launch of the new Aer Lingus direct flight between Raleigh and Dublin, we thought it only fitting to raise a glass.
To celebrate, we’re featuring a special cocktail at The Fearrington House Bar:
THE IRISH MAID
Irish Whiskey Fresh Cucumber St-Germain Bright Lemon A touch of Simple Syrup
Refreshing. Crisp. Light.
The Irish Maid is everything we love in a spring cocktail — clean and vibrant with just enough depth from the whiskey to keep it interesting. The cucumber and lemon bring brightness, while St-Germain adds a subtle floral note that makes it feel elegant and perfectly balanced. It’s the kind of drink you’ll want to enjoy on the porch as the evening light stretches a little longer — perhaps while dreaming of a trip across the Atlantic.
Join us at the bar and help us toast new connections, new adventures, and a little Irish spirit here at Fearrington. Sláinte!
Freshly Baked, Every Morning There is something about a warm scone that makes the day feel just a little more special. Our pastry team at The Belted Goat bakes fresh scones daily, filling the kitchen with the most irresistible aroma. You can choose from classic blueberry, bursting with fruit, or chocolate chip, rich and comforting with just the right touch of sweetness.
Tender on the inside with a perfectly golden exterior, they are just divine — especially paired with a cup of hot coffee or tea.
Stop by in the morning while they last.. they sell out quickly!
Few producers capture the precision and elegance of German Riesling quite like Dönnhoff. From the Nahe region — known for its volcanic soils and dramatic mineral character — the 2024 Estate Riesling is a beautiful expression of balance.
This off-dry style is both elegant and racy, with vibrant acidity carrying notes of ripe peach, green apple, and a whisper of flint. The volcanic soils lend a distinct minerality that keeps the wine lifted and focused, while a gentle touch of sweetness makes it incredibly versatile at the table. It’s playful yet structured — refreshing enough for warm afternoons, complex enough to pair with food.
Troy Revell says:
“Dönnhoff is one of the benchmark producers of Riesling in Germany. What I love about this Estate bottling is how beautifully it balances fruit and minerality. It’s lively and precise — and one of the best values in high-quality Riesling.”
Enjoy it with spicy dishes, seafood, fresh salads, or simply on its own as an aperitif. It’s a wine that proves Riesling can be both serious and joyful at the same time.
Stonewall Kitchen Spicy Honey Mustard isn’t your average condiment; it’s a sophisticated balance of smooth, golden honey and a fiery kick of capsicum oil that awakens your taste buds. Whether you're glazing a rack of baby back ribs, drizzling it over a fresh steak salad, or using it as a gourmet dip for pretzels, its sweet-and-tangy profile adds an instant "wow" factor to any meal.
Crafted with premium ingredients like pure cane sugar and a secret blend of spices, it’s the pantry essential for anyone who loves a little heat with their sweet.
