Autumn Hill Vineyards Blueridge Winery
Some of the oldest vines in Virginia
Established in 1979 in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Autumn Hill Vineyards has some of the oldest Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon vines in Virginia.
The 13 arces of only Vinifera grapes: Chardonnay, Viognier, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Petit Verdot and Nebbiolo yield wines of special character and finese.
Autumn Hills Winery takes pride in producing wine in a European tradition, but with a Virginia accent.
Their estate bottled wines are available in limited quantities. The red wines are fermented and hand punched down for maximum extraction and color,in addition, they are bottled unfined and unfiltered.
They are open limited times during the year so check their website for dates, times and awards. Phone and internet sales year round. You can join their Vintage Wine Club.
Autumn Hills Vineyards is one of Virginia's largest vinifera red wine producers.
