Virginia is the birthplace of the American wine industry tracing its roots to the days of Thomas Jefferson. Today there are over 300 wineries in the state with many producing exceptional wines year after year. Each spring, the Virginia Governor's Cup, one of the most stringent competitions in the US, is held where wineries throughout the state submit their best offerings to a panel of world class judges. In 2023, 614 wines were sampled with 142 receiving gold medals and the top twelve being designated as the Governors' Cup Case.
For this tasting we have chosen a selection of gold medal winning wines, focusing on the Governor's Cup Case, consisting of four white and five red wines from wineries in Virgina's Blue Ridge Mountains and historic Charlottsville area.
A buffet dinner will follow the tasting.
Limited to 40 people
