We recently told you about the craft beers and ciders that will be available in the Virginia Craft Beer Garden at the the 2020 Coastal Virginia Magazine WineFest, Jan. 25–26 at the Virginia Beach Convention Center. Now let’s talk spirits and, of course, the main attraction: wines, wines and more Virginia wines!
New to the festival this year will be our “Distillery Den” featuring tastings and cocktails made with Richmond’s Belle Isle Craft Spirits, Smithfield’s Blue Sky Distillery, the Eastern Shore’s Cape Charles Distillery and Virginia Beach’s Tarnished Truth Distilling Company.
But what about the wines, you ask? Once again, some of the finest wineries from around the state will be offering tastings as well as select vintages for sale during the event. Look for these wineries (and one meadery):
- AmRhein's Wine Cellars
- Castle Glen Winery
- Effingham Manor
- Haley's Honey Meadery
- Horton Vineyards
- Lake Anna Winery
- Mattaponi Winery
- Pearmund Cellars
- Prince Michel Vineyard & Winery
- Stanburn Winery
- Vintners Cellar Winery
In addition to these wineries, you can also taste samples and purchase from Bold Rock cider and Cobbler Mountain Cider.
