One of the newest members of the exciting Virginia wine community, Chrysalis Vineyards has established a series of superlative vineyards rolling across more than 50 acres in the foothills of the Northern Blue Ridge & Bull Run Mountains, with additional plantings to come. Our goal is to create vineyards and winery facilities of the highest quality, achieved through a commitment to detail and particularized attention to each aspect of the grape growing and the winemaking process. We are excited about our alternative vinifera varieties, some of which include: the French Viognier, Petit Verdot, Tannat, Fer Servadou, and Petit Manseng; the Spanish Albariño, Tempranillo and Graciano; and we're most excited about our large planting of the native Virginian variety, Norton. To support our belief that many of the finest wines of the world are the result of careful and talented blending, these alternative varieties provide the winemaker with a full palette of unique qualities and flavors for blending in the tradition of Old World vintners. Our plantings also include the more traditional Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Riesling.
