Fiesta Released


Fiesta is our sweet blush table wine. Concord grapes give it a very familiar and popular aroma and taste. Concord grapes are familiar to most people as the grape making the jelly paired most frequently with peanut butter in a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Chilled, Fiesta makes a refreshing beverage that fits perfectly with a hot summer day. Wine was bottled on 5/21/09, and consisted of 420 cases. Photo shows a bottle of Fiesta on the railing of the upper deck, overlooking the front vineyard, Massanutten Mountain, and Edinburg Gap.

The Fiesta wine is very good! We get this everytime we visit Virginia. Sorry to say no trip is planned for this year. Wish you could ship to MO.

Flattery will get you a lot of things, but state regulations limit us to a heartfelt and gracious "thank you."

I tried Fiesta at a Wine Festival and LOVED it. Bought a whole case the next year. I just had a baby, but as soon as I stop breastfeeding, we'll be heading back to the vineyard to buy another case!

I have never had much interest in wine but I recently tried Fiesta at the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley's "Gardens at Night" and absolutely fell in love with it.

Fiesta is grabbing all the accolades. Our winery in Edinburg is a short drive from Winchester. If you get the chance, please come and visit. We have chilled Fiesta, especially enjoyable while viewing the autumnal landscape from the winery deck.

total trash

I appreciate your blunt opinion. I can only assume you are being honest in your assessment. No wine or food will suit every taste. But, the world in which we find ourselves is rich in variety, and most individuals can find something rewarding to the senses.

Our wines cover a wide spectrum of individual tastes. Fiesta occupies a *very* popular band of that spectrum. A few people don't like it, and this is to be expected.

I love Fiesta! My girlfriends and I ususally purchased a case a couple of times a year and have it shipped. I wish I lived closer to the vineyard so that I would never run out!

Hope we can be an inspiration for many happy returns. I will try to update the blog often to keep everybody informed about what's happening. Right now, Autumn is happening. We've fallen into a freshly painted Impressionist masterpiece.

great selection of wine I love the Fiesta I am now living in Rhode Island, the laws are a bit confusing here, can you clarify if you can actually ship to this state. I have purchased from you in the past and would love to get more from your vineyard

We are effectively prohibited from sending wine from our winery in Virginia to residences of Rhode Island. For the laws regulating the shipment of wine into your state, see:
