Muse Vineyards

Establish 2005

Muse Vineyards is a boutique vineyard in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley where art, science, passion, and reverence for the tradition of classic wine making converge to produce award-winning wine.

In 2015 just a few short years after our founding, Muse’s 2009 Clio, a Bordeaux-style, blend, was named Virginia’s top wine and awarded the coveted 2015 Virginia Governor’s Cup, besting some 400 entries from across the state.

At Muse Vineyards, our inspiration, our devotion to time-honored farming and wine production techniques and our passionate pursuit of excellence are an homage to the legendary domaine vineyards of France and Italy. Rarely larger than 35 acres and often family-owned and operated for centuries, such vineyards represent for us the ideal of artisanal, premium wine-making craft.

Coming Events

Bluestone Vineyard

Wine from the Shenandoah Valley AVA.

2017 Bluestone Chardonnay

Aged Sur Lees for a Buttery Finish

These particular grapes came from our first harvest from the newer vines on the property to the east. After fermentation, the wine stayed on the heavy lees (finished yeast) for 9 months, with monthly stirring of the barrels. This resulted in a wonderful, creamy Chardonnay. 

2013 Petit Verdot

After being released three years ago it was decided that the high acid, high tannic wine needed more time to mellow. Cellared for few more years, we are finally re-releasing this Petit Verdot. Still more aggressive than the 2014, the vintage, with its jam-y fruit flavors, is a great one to age for a few more years, but can definitely be enjoyed now. 

2016 Bluestone Viognier

Virginia's Signature White Wine

Fermented mostly in acacia barrels which is less sweet than oak and helps lighten the weighty-ness of Viognier. This vintage is beautifully dense fruit flavors and finishes dry. one of our best wines to go with a meal. 

Bluestone Beau

Vidal Blanc-Traminette blend

A sweet golden wine named for our sweet golden (retriever) dog. A Vidal Blanc-Traminette blend, it is sweetened to 3% residual sugar.
