Save the last roll for Grandpa.
Take the Packers and the points.
Go ahead and open another bottle, we open back up Friday at 10am, so you can reload.
Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Bringing the out of towners for an outing? Don't forget to take advantage of our 'Black Label Friday' specials, featuring our Reserve Wines!!
The Weird Uncle with his 'opinionated' new Lady-friend might even approve!!
Thinking about what to serve this Thanksgiving?
OPEN THAT BOTTLE OF BUBBLES you have, but weren't sure what to do with.
There will be travel delays. There will be foods prepared the way you don't like. There will be uncomfortable conversations with family. There will be poorly predicted football outcomes. There will be none of the pie you like left....however, control what you can control. Open the bubbles. Pairs well with the meal, and makes you look cooler that the guy who brought Ambrosia Salad. Just be sure to pour yourself the first glass.
Congratulation to our wine team for a 99 point score at the recent Sonoma County Harvest Festival National competition for their Cabernet Franc. Being named 'Best in Virginia' means topping multiple 90+ point wines--all made in Virginia from Virginia Vineyards.
On the National stage, Virginia keeps on keeping on.
I was a non-compromising “white wine” drinker for years until I tried Pearmund’s Cabernet Franc. That was over 15 years ago, but that day I switched from white wine to red and have never looked back. All of these years later, Pearmund Cellars’ Cabernet Franc is still the best I’ve ever had. Congratulations to Winemaker Mark Ward and his team - the best in the business!!
Well done!
Congratulations 🎉🎊🎈
Congratulations! Well deserved!!!
Congrats, Chris!! That’s amazing! 🤩
Bow WOW!

So THATS where all the bags went.

Thank you, Veterans, and those who stand behind them.
Congratulations to Virginia and American Wine Society.
Wrapping up today, the American Wine Society's 58th annual convention was held in Chantilly-with Virginia taking center stage. Wines and wine lovers from around the world gathered to learn, talk, taste and celebrate, while sessions included everything from Macedonian varietals to NY Sparkling to (our favorite) 'Virginia Legends' featuring Chris Pearmund, Jim Law (Linden) and Luca Paschina (Barboursville).
As lead sponsors, our wineries were proud of how Virginia put her best foot forward, reminding the wine world that we are every bit as good as we think we are😜
Wonderful job showcasing Virginia, Chris. Thanks for your considerable contributions to a great event!
Way to go Pearmund Cellars! Awesome job at the AWS. You certainly converted some of our NC friends! Thanks for the great hospitality!! ❤️

This Saturday see a War Hero in action
Our friends at 550 CORD INC have helped us secure a flyover of the Placid Lassie, a 1943 Douglas C-47 Skytrain, who transported troops and supplies to the D-Day invasion. She will pass Pearmund Cellars at 1:30pm, with a second pass fifteen minutes later. No purchase or reservations needed--all are invited to see our Military History in flight.
www.tunisonfoundation.org/c-47-placid-lassie
think you mean sky train, not spy plane.
My Dad kept these planes flying supplies from India over the Hump and then in China after the Burma Road was opened.
Is this still happening? See it on FlightAware down around Culpeper but not leaving that area.
Placid Lassie is a true ww2 veteran. Enjoy the sight and sound of this beautiful aircraft, she's very special ✈️❤️👌😃
I'm in...
Wow, well done!
American Wine Society, leaders in wine education, has their 2025 convention kicking off this week in Chantilly.

Sorry in Advance.
Our harvest was completed weeks ago. 25+ tons of Chardonnay off of Meriwether vineyard in her 50th(!) Anniversary. However in walking the vineyard yesterday we saw we missed a few. So when you are enjoying the last bit of the 2025 Chardonnay a few years from now--and you want just one more sip--please remember this apology.😜
Late harvest wine?
2012 was hands down the best Chardonnay I’ve ever had in my life.
Treat Yo’ Self!!
I see that the yeastie boys are finished with processing all those grapes!
Awesome
We’ve crushed the last of the 150+ tons of Grapes that make up the 2025 Vintage at Pearmund Cellars (plus Vint Hill Craft Winery and Effingham Manor Winery) . A toast to the Yeastie Boys!
The work isn’t done. They are now going to make that water into wine….but now they can take a breath, get a day off, and maybe even enjoy a glass!!
You craft it... I drink it... win win! 😃
Thanks for your hard work so we can enjoy all of you delicious wines!!
Thank you for making the magic that you do ❤️
Best team! 👏🏻
Well done!!!!
Great job guys! We appreciate you.
