  • Virginia Wineries: Top Three Day Trip Destinations by KW Rosenfeld
    http://voices.yahoo.com/shared/print.shtml?content_type=artic... Close Window Click here to print or select File then Print from your browser. Virginia Wineries: Top Three Day Trip Destinations By KW Rosenfeld Virginia's wine industry is considered to be among the finest in the country, making good on the vision of Founding Father Thomas Jefferson who persistently but unsuccessfully attempted wine-making more than 200 hundred years earlier. Now among the nation's most prolific wine-producing states, and rapidly building a reputation across the globe, Virginia receives acclaim for the quality of its wines and the character of its wineries. Today, the rolling hills are overflowing with exceptional wineries, particularly in the regions surrounding Jefferson's Charlottesville and to the north outside of Leesburg. But travel a little out of the way and additional gems can be found. These wineries not only produce great wine, but offer the exceptional atmosphere and surrounding attractions that promise to turn a pleasant visit into a memorable day trip. Contact each winery for the latest details on hours and events. Paradise Springs Winery - Northern Virginia 13219 Yates Ford Road; Clifton, Virginia 20124 www.paradisespringswinery.com Notable as the only winery in populous Fairfax County outside of Washington, DC, Paradise Springs is nestled in a quiet, forested area near the quaint town of Clifton. A newcomer, having planted its first vineyard in 2008, the family-run winery opened in January 2010, after prevailing in a lengthy zoning dispute in which it had to prove that the winery was more "agricultural" than "industrial." Wine award: The 2009 Chardonnay won the prestigious Governor's Cup as the best white wine in the Commonwealth.
