Of this place
Wine doesn't lie
As the culmination of seed and earth and climate, of sun and dirt and vine, wine becomes the distilled essence of a place. The taste and feel of it. That’s why we established Pippin Hill Farm & Vineyards right here, on this breathtaking spot overlooking our beloved Blue Ridge Mountains. This is a place where our hearts sing and our vines thrive, and we can’t help but believe those two are connected. And so everything we do at Pippin Hill—from creating an inviting environs for sips or celebrations, to pouring our best wines, to serving the bounty of our garden in the simplest, tastiest way possible—reflects the essence of this special place, a land cultivated with love and care.
A Virginia vineyard. And then some.
