Elizabeth and Guy Pelly pose in their swanky wine-tasting room at Merrie Mill Farm & Vineyard
Banish the traditional vineyard wine-tasting room and bring on some serious chic. Elizabeth and Guy Pelly, owners of Merrie Mill Farm & Vineyard near Charlottesville, Virginia, engaged project head Jenn Grandcamp of the spirited design firm Kemble Interiors to revamp their wine-tasting room.
Elizabeth explains her vision for the space: “I wanted the tasting room to feel like a home, both architecturally and decoratively. Jenn and I used eclectic furnishings—a mix of modern and old—along with personal artwork and lots of color, pattern, and texture. There is a lot to look at—sort of a maximalist wonderland.”
