Tasting at Cana Vineyards

Cana Vineyards opened in 2011 and expects to be producing a suitable grape in about 4 years. Cana takes its name from the bible. The vineyard had 8 wines to taste.  They included the Apple Wine (which I considered the best), the Raspberry Apple Wine, the Traminette, Riesling, Viognier, Rose, Cabernet Franc, and Le Mariage.  They are growing Petit Manseng and Viognier grapes on the grounds.  Overall, the vineyard was a beautiful place that sits atop a hill in Middleburg, VA. This area is also known for the Gray Ghost, John Mosby. The area offers other places worth seeing, such as the Red Fox Inn just down the road from the vineyard.   http://www.canavineyards.com/
