Christopher Gleed

After 15 years of restaurant management across Chicago, New York, and Pennsylvania, and 6 years studying under a sommelier, Christopher’s carpentry hobbies brought him to Charlottesville in 2019. He began to renovate and construct the historic farmhouse and tasting room of Merrie Mill Farm & Vineyard. Christopher has been working with the Pelly’s since the beginning to make their vineyard dream a reality and now manages the tasting room with the goals of expansion on the horizon.
