On Friday, we decided to go on a winery tour and tasting. I’d noticed on this Virginia Tourism website, that there were a lot of vineyards in Virginia. I thought it’s be something good to do if it was cold outside, which it had been the two previous days.
I called around some places and the Tarara Winery sounded interesting. It turned out it was really nice outside and Tarara had some outdoor things, as well as a self-guided tour and a tasting. And they were having a jazz band play in the tasting room. Sounded good, so that’s where we went. These photos are from the “wine cave.” Here’s more on Tarara from their site:
Whitie Hubert spent 40 successful years in the construction business, but when he retired, the vineyard beckoned. Born and raised on a farm in Ohio, Whitie had spent his youth growing grapes for Welch’s Grape Juice Company with his father and brother. So in 1975, the promise of a return to viticulture led Whitie and his wife Margaret to purchase 475 acres of prime Virginia farmland nestled along the Potomac river. In 1985, they built Tarara where, today, they produce award-winning wines.
For Whitie and Margaret, sharing wine is a celebration of life, and sharing their vineyard in this set-apart place is an affirmation of all the things they love best: nature, music, art, and architecture.
Whether you choose to share their celebration at a concert by the lake on a warm summer’s eve, picking fruit with your kids in the orchards, hiking 6 miles of trails, or just tasting wines in the Winemaker’s cave, Whitie and Margaret welcome you.
