Loudoun Wine Country: The Perfect Escape

So winter is officially here and we are all looking for a getaway from the weather and the winter doldrums. One of the best things about living in Loudoun is that it's full of opportunities to escape the everyday, even if it is just for a day or a short weekend.

There is no better escape in Loudoun than visiting any one of its wineries. Savoring the aromas of fruit, currant, spice or chocolate in your glass, feeling the warmth of a roaring fireplace, overlooking breathtaking backdrops of Virginia's rolling hills. Can you imagine having that experience available at your fingertips whenever you want an escape?

If I have caught your attention, then maybe you'll be interested in some of the upcoming events held in Loudoun County's vineyards...
