Fifty wineries are reserving a VIP table on May 13 and/or 14 to welcome their biggest fans: you, and the entire community of Virginia Wine Lovers! Each winery will put its own spin on the weekend with customized tastings, guest hosts, and lots of surprises. Pick a winery—pick a bunch!—and stop by to meet kindred souls, share favorite winery stories, and trade travel tips.
Here's a quick list of all 50 participating wineries, and here they are on a map.

I have the 2023 Virginia Gold Medal Trail Passport app. Are any of the Gold Medal wineries on the Passport participating in Virginia Wine Love Weekend?
Yes! Eighteen, in fact. See all of them here.
Why Virginia Wine Love Weekend? Because wine builds community. Notice how you can't help but strike up a conversation at winery tasting bars? What's your favorite winery? you ask. Where you headed next? they ask. It's a universal truth: wine brings people together.
This this very first Virginia Wine Love Weekend is a chance for the 11,000+ members of the Virginia Wine Love Facebook group and all Virginia wine fans to meet up, geek out over wine country stories, and share some #VAWineLove.
