When you buy a Virginia wine, you can be sure that the money goes to supporting your fellow Virginians. In fact, you might even get to meet the winemakers themselves.

If music is more your thing, you can be sure that any day, there is a winery with live music to listen to while you enjoy your favorite wines.

8. The Dogs

It isn’t hard to find a friendly face in the Virginia countryside, but not one friendlier than a winery dog. Most Virginia vineyards have at least one furry little mascot.
