vineyard
Wine estate grounds
A vineyard is land planted with grapevines, typically for wine production.
The word often evokes images of rolling hillsides in wine country: We toured vineyards in Napa Valley.
Vineyards may also grow table grapes or raisins.
In biblical contexts, the vineyard appears as a symbol of cultivation and stewardship.
