I have been a customer, and Estate Club member, at Veramar for a number of years and like the wines so much that I've purchased Estate Club memberships for my brother and sister, too. Now I don't have to remember their birthdays or worry about what to get them for Christmas!

As with most boutique wineries, the taste of each wine will vary from year to year. One thing that does not vary, even a little bit, is the quality of Veramar wines. My favorites over the years have been the 2007 Chardonnay, the 2010 Rooster Red (all time Bordeaux blend favorite), and the 2009 Norton. The Veramar Rose from 2011 provides an excellent balance between sweetness and fruitiness, which is a nice contrast to the drier Pink Chicken of years past. Another 2011 favorite is the Cabernet Franc. The only thing I need to pair it with is a wine glass!

The staff at Veramar, like most spots in the hospitality industry, does see some turnover, though there are friendly faces that predate my arrival on the Veramar scene. Over the years I have noticed a consistent dedication to professional, courteous customer service, even in the face of such adversity as one might expect from a bus full of well lubricated twenty somethings.

One of the really neat things about Veramar is the awesome view of the Blue Ridge mountains. It is the perfect place to take someone special and enjoy a leisurely picnic and some excellent wine.

I heartily recommend Veramar for the wine, the atmosphere and the servic

About Winery and Wines

Our estate is comprised of 100 acres, with 26 acres currently planted in grape vines. Cabernet Franc is the most widely planted varietal, with 7 acres under cultivation. Chardonnay is the next largest planting, with 6 acres, followed by Seyval Blanc (5 acres) , Norton (3 acres), Albariño (2 Acres) and Malbec (2 acres). A 5-8 acre block of Vidal Blanc is planned for planting in 2017. While the soils of our estate vineyard manifest many variations on a common theme, the primary soil type consists of loamy clay overlying limestone shale.The vineyards are planted to a series of east facing hillsides, which protect the vines from the hot afternoon sun, promoting the retention of volatile aromatic compounds in the fruit. The average harvest yields roughly 4.5 pounds of grapes per vine (2.5 tons per acre), or the equivalent of 2 bottles of wine per vine.
