Find out how impactful Virginia is when we talk about wine in the United States.
Virginia wines represent a broader trend toward valuing authenticity, individuality, and a sense of place in winemaking. It's about appreciating wine as more than just a beverage—it's a narrative, a piece of history, and a reflection of the land and its people. This connection with the land and the celebration of local identity in winemaking are powerful, allowing the true poetry of the vineyard to shine through.

Want to find the most recent and groundbreaking wine book? Check out what Jane and Jon have created with one of the most incredible and unique wine countries in the world! How to drink Australian is as deep of a dive as you get for wine and at the same time so fun and easy to understand for wine lovers. After reading this book you will change your next wine trip from France or Italy to Australia to discover the beauty in and around the magnificent bottles they produce down under!
How to Drink Australian
“The landscape of Australian wine is cracking with both new energy and historic traditions that makes it one of the most exciting (we think the most exciting) wine-producing countries in the world right now. But the scholarship on Australian wine hasn’t always matched the output. Think of the dozens (hundreds?) of books that exist on France’s Burgundy alone, a region that could fit inside many of Australia’s individual appellations. Australia hasn’t been afforded the same attention in the world of wine, especially by those living outside its borders. How to Drink Australian is an insider’s and outsider’s guide to Australian wine, both perspectives offering something important to the conversation.”
