About Us

Many people visit one Virginia winery - usually a eco-tourist attraction - have a bad experience with the wine, and then write off the whole state. It’s easy to see how this happens. There are over 300 wineries in Virginia, and only about 20-30 produce world-class wine.

Virginia has some amazing wines, but you need a guide to help you find the quality producers. That’s why we’re here.

We are an independent site and, unlike VirginiaWine.org, unaffiliated with the state wine industry

  • Introduce you to grape varietals that Virginia excels at making.

  • Encourage and promote the best vineyards and winemakers in the state.

  • Foster a culture of enjoying wine with meals instead of by itself as an intoxicant.
