Our friends John and Megan from Woodland Vineyards and Anything Wine came to visit us from Richmond this weekend. They came up to experience some wineries in Loudoun County. This was their first visit to any Loudoun County wineries.

Our first stop was Loudoun Valley. We discovered they offer special soups on the weekends in January and February. Since we brought our own lunch, we did not take advantage of the offer.

Our next stop was Corcoran Vineyards. Lori always treats us so well when we visit. We enjoyed our tasting and were able to sample the new wines since our last visit. They were all very good and we left with almost half a case of wine!

Next we went to Doukenie Winery. They had a busy tasting room but we were able to sample their current selections. A favorite here was the Sauvignon Blanc. Paul walked away with two bottles!

Our last stop was Hillsborough Vineyards. We always enjoy our tastings at Hillsborough. This is where we settled down for lunch. It was a little chilly to be outside but the sun was warm on our faces. We enjoyed a bottle of the Opal and The Ruby…both paired well with our lunch items. Before ending the day we made a few purchases for our wine collections.
