What does varietal mean and what is a vintner?
A Varietal describes a wine made primarily from a single named grape variety, and which typically displays the name of that variety on the wine label. Examples of grape varieties commonly used in varietal wines are Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Merlot. Wines that display the name of two or more varieties on their label, such as a Chardonnay-Viognier, are blends and not varietal wines. The vintner is the nice smile on the other side of counter who makes, blends and pours your wine otherwise known as a wine merchant or wine seller.

What is the difference between a winery and a vineyard?
A Winery
A winery is technically a term called to a place where harvested grapes are segregated, cleaned, processed, fermented, aged in oak barrels, and labeled to become the perfect wine you desired it to be. It is a production plant for making wine and is the place where every part of the wine-making process is done. It is also the place where grapes are bottled before distributing to wine resellers.
A Vineyard
A vineyard is where grapes are planted. In this yard, people grow the grape vines in acres of land and this area of land may be large estates or just an acre where the main purpose is planting grapevines for wine making. No other plants may be cultivated in a vineyard except grape-bearing vines, although not only wine may be produced but also grape products such as raisins or table grapes.
