From the Winery’s Blurb:
Nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia, owners, Ed and Avra Schwab have spent the last 30 years following their passion and developing a premier location that produces high quality vinifera grapes.
The established vineyard produces eight varietals; Chardonnay, Viognier, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Nebbiolo and Malbec.
Our over-riding philosophy is that great wines are made in the vineyards. We strive to be minimally invasive in the vineyard so that the vines, and the fruit it produces, will be naturally in balance.

Sorry you haven’t been there yet. I highly recommend that you do! This coming Saturday and Sunday (10/22-23) is their Autumn Open House. Go and enjoy! We have belonged to their wine club for several years now and enjoy their dry wines (esp. the Cab Sauv and Horizon Rouge), as well as their Wine Club Appreciation Day usually held in June.
