Among the first guests were Paul and Warren of the Virginia Wine Time blog, whose profile of the event gives a better summary than we could possibly provide.

You don’t need to travel all the way to Annefield (though we’d love to have you), because we are in Northern Virginia during the week and can come to you — just shoot us an email. And our wine is available in NoVA at the Olde Dominion Wine Shoppe in Occoquan and Twisted Vines Bottleshop & Bistro in Arlington.

If you hail from another part of Virginia, all of the retail shops and restaurants that carry our wine are listed on our blog, Bottled Poetry.

As always, thanks guys! I did want to point out that Wine Enthusiast gave our 2009 Cabernet Franc 88 points; that rating and review has not yet been published (I received advance notice from the magazine). Wine Enthusiast rated our white wines during the summer and published them in July 2011. You can read tasting notes and see all of our ratings and awards on our blog.

Nice post guys! I wasn’t able to get out to Boxwood, but Rachel did stress to me that she got some really good fruit for all the trouble Mother Nature put her through. I’ve heard the same from a few other winemakers as well, all of whom stressed that the good weather early in the season meant they at least had healthy grapes when the deluge hit. We’ll really know in another year or two who had their act together this past season.

Comment on Yelper Helper by Larissa

Larissa — Mon, 07 Nov 2011 20:32:09 +0000

I am very confused about parents feeling that bringing their under aged children to a winery is acceptable. To me, this should be an adult only activity. I know when I go wine tasting I do not want kids running around, playing soccer or what have you. To me, bringing children to a winery is the same as bringing children to a bar (and yes, I do have children and would NEVER think of bringing them with me when wine tasting.)

Parents need to take others into consideration when out in the public and not feel that whatever their children want to do is acceptable behavior.

In regard to accommodating large groups, you would not go to a restaurant with six couples plus children without a reservation. If you do, then you would expect a long wait or no service.

The bottom line is be courteous and have common sense.

Comment on Yelper Helper by Meghan

Meghan — Mon, 07 Nov 2011 15:42:02 +0000

This is a GREAT article! As someone who has been to several VA wineries I wish more people knew what was and wasn’t OK behavior when attending a winery. I can’t tell you have many people I see get outraged when the winery can’t accommodate their large group. More importantly I go there for the wine, not just the buzz (though the buzz can be great sometimes!) and I hate when people can be so rude just because they don’t know the proper etiquette when doing a wine tasting.

Comment on Yelper Helper by Lisa

Lisa — Mon, 07 Nov 2011 14:27:23 +0000

Thank you. As someone who enjoys wine tastings, I have certainly observed all of the situations you described and felt for the owner and my fellow patrons. I wonder if the vineyard/playground/dogpark situation is a “Virginia thing?” Parents here seem to think all environments are appropriate for their children and pets and there are precious few places left where adults can interact with each other exclusively. I have been to Napa several times and did not observe this kind of thing going on.

Comment on Yelper Helper by David Manley

David Manley — Mon, 07 Nov 2011 14:27:13 +0000

You certainly hit the high spots. We in the winery biz want to accommodate everything/everyone we can in order to provide a tasting experience for anyone that wants it (and to stay in business). These tips, however, are sage advice to the wine enjoying public and ought to be thought of as common courtesy. Thanks for sharing.

Comment on Friday Wine of Note by Warren

Warren — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 00:02:25 +0000

Yes, Jonathan, I agree with the beef tenderloin. Any roasted meat dish at this time of year would pair well with the King Family Meritage.

Thanks for the comment! Cheers!

Comment on Friday Wine of Note by Jonathan Scott

Jonathan Scott — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 17:32:46 +0000

Absolutely agree! The Meritage lives up to the tradition that King Family Estates has established over the years. The Meritage is a fabulous food wine, especially for Holiday planning and we have been selling it at the Market really well this vintage. I am making the recommnedation that the Meritage would be perfect with Roasted Beef Tenderloin or my favorite a Roasted Bone-In Ribeye Loin.

Great article, and I’m not just saying that because you liked my ignite presentation (which thank you by the way). And i agree with the breakout sessions. The drink local one was great with a lot of good feedback. The millennial one was a bit off though, most of my readers are millennials and I didn’t really agree with a lot of their points. I’ve never had to drop an f-bomb to get attention for my wine reviews, I just don’t act pretentious and that seems to work well enough.

Very cool looking winery! I am working as an intern for Rodney Strong in Cali over the summer, however this winery is apparently only 5-10 minutes away from my home. I am going to have to check this out, as well as some of the other winerys y’all speak of when I return this fall.

Thank you guys. The big secret about BOW is that Rick and Sharon are quietly and humbly making some of the best wines in Virginia. My showmanship upstairs has obscured this fact for some but you guys have taken the time to get at the heart of our success. Our true passion for the wine. Thank you!
