Paradise Springs Winery: The Gateway To Virginia Wine Country

May 8, 2014 by

One of the most interesting developments in viticulture has been the growth of unique, small wineries drawing from the terroir of new locations across America. Virginia is beginning to develop a wine culture around the Manassas area, and one of the best places to get introduced to it is the Paradise Springs Winery.

Located on the border of the beautiful Hemlock National Park, the property is gorgeous. The first grape fields were planted in 2008, and the winery has grown by leaps and bounds since then. Visitors rave about the uniformly high quality of the wine, with the Cabernet drawing special attention. If you’re not a wine expert, the “wine guides” here are exceptionally friendly and well-educated, and they’ll walk you through your tasting and help you pair with the diverse assortment of food here. The winery also hosts musical performances on their spacious patio.
