Kevin Bresnahan Posted November 15 Report Posted November 15 I just got back from a short trip to wine country in Northern Virginia. It was fun and there were some excellent wines. We ended up going to 5 wineries, with our favorite being Zephaniah Farm Vineyard in Leesburg. All of our favorite wines were whites as almost every red we tasted was far too wimpy for our palates. Our favorite overall wine was a white blend from Zephaniah called Steamship White. Unfortunately, these wineries are all too small to make an entry into the retail game, so if I want any more, it's mail order. Quote
