Another Double Gold Viognier Win!
Most Awarded Winery For Virginia's State Grape? We Think So.
We are deeply humbled to have received another top award for Virginia's state grape, Viognier! Our recently released 2019 Viognier won a Double Gold at this year's 2020 San Francisco International Wine Competition, the largest North American wine competition with over 7,000 entries. Our 2019 Viognier joins other Best In Class, Platinum, Double Gold and Gold awards for Jefferson Vineyard Viognier vintages, stretching as far back as 2008.
A BIG congratulations to our winemaking team, Chris Ritzcovan and David Woodside, for creating high quality Viognier year after year. We are thrilled to champion Virginia’s state grape at national scale and be a part of the dynamic Virginia wine industry.
