Our wines are a true reflection of this very special place with a relaxed, classic beauty that is timeless. The special climate and soils of our vineyard help create grapes with intense flavors, soft firm tannins and good acid balance.

FABBIOLI CELLARS

Winemaker Doug Fabbioli has been growing and making wines in Virginia over the past 10 years.  Fabbioli Cellars is the culmination of his 25 years experience over three distinct wine regions including Finger Lakes and the Carneros.  The focus is on high quality and low production of red wines that combine world style with Virginia “Terroir.”  With limited wine tasting at the winery, it is wise to take advantage of the opportunity to taste what some consider to be the best reds in the state.

POTOMAC POINT WINERY

This grand Meditteranean–style estate, located in Stafford County, has debuted nine distinctive varietals: Abbinato - A Chianti style Italian blend, Cabernet Franc,  La Belle Vie, Norton (2006) - Virginia' s own native varietal,  Richland Reserve (2005) - a blend of Bordeaux varietals, Rabelos Virginia Dessert Wine, Late Harvest Vidal Blanc Dessert Wine, Richland Reserve Viognier, and our favorite - Pocahontas Reserve Norton (2005) - Packaged in a beautiful stoneware commemorative bottle - this is the native Virginia varietal that is taking America by storm.

PHILIP CARTER WINERY

There are few places that can boast the depth of Virginia wine history that Philip Carter Winery reflects. The family carries a two hundred and fifty year legacy as maker of the first recognized fine wine in America. It was Charles Carter, who, in 1762, sent the London Society for the Encouragement of the Arts a dozen bottles of his Virginia wine. The society awarded Carter a gold medal as the first person to make a "spirited attempt towards the accomplishment of their views, respecting wine in America." Located in Hume, Philip Carter Winery is seated on 27 acres of rolling hills in the heart of Fauquier County’s Wine Country.

ATHENA VINEYARDS

WHITE FENCES VINEYARD

High away in the blackness of the sky over Irvington, Virginia, the meteors often come in showers, slicing the sky by the hundreds or even thousands like the fins of silver fish around a boat at night. Beneath this excess of magic and motion lies the small vineyard called White Fences. While every wine has the character of the land in its soul, we call our wines Meteor because of the unique relationship between land and sky at White Fences. We have only six acres in the vineyard. And we make only a few  handcrafted wines. But there is not a bottle of wine we create that does not have in its character that certain sense of itself and where it comes from.

NORTH MOUNTAIN VINEYARD

Follow romantic and historic country roads into the Northern Shenandoah Valley to discover an enchanting winery nestled in a beautiful vineyard! North Mountain Vineyards welcomes you to the heartwarming experience of lush, fruity, and well balanced Shenandoah Valley wines.  Our distinctive winery building was modeled after a European-style farmhouse and constructed in 1982. The below-ground cellar produces some 3,000 cases of premium table wine per year. We have something for everyone to enjoy, so come on over and have a taste!

DEMOCRACY VINEYARDS

Located At an elevation between 800 and 1,000 feet just off U.S. 29 in gorgeous Nelson County, Democracy Vineyards is very much in a state of becoming.  Once a vibrant apple operation, a portion of the orchard has been cleared to allow for the soils to be prepped for wine production.  Destined to be a true Virginia Farm winery, with over 12 acres of Vitis Vinifera grapes, Democracy Vineyards will also remain an active "Ginger Gold" apple operation.
