About us:
Edward and I originally came to the Shenandoah Valley to retire, and here we are today! I was born in D.C., and my family migrated to California when I was two. However, our extended family stayed on the East coast. We traveled to Virginia, Maryland, and the New England area at least every other summer to visit grandmothers, uncles, aunts, and my cousins. When we returned, my heart always stayed on the East coast. I met Edward, a California boy, in high school. We raised three amazing kids and generally loved life, but I always wanted to go back and retire on the East coast. So I dragged my California man East and began searching for a place to spend the rest of our lives.
We finally settled here in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley. Did we always want to start a vineyard and run a winery? No! When we bought this place we met a couple who had purchased property in Woodstock with a small vineyard on it. That's where we got the idea to plant some vines for our own consumption. After talking to a vineyard consultant, and having our soil tested by Virginia Tech, we went for three acres. Well, that evolved to six acres, which then evolved to deciding to build a winery.
