Growing great grapes takes time, and our first estate harvests at Mountain Run Winery started in the fall of 2017. To supplement our estate vineyards, Mountain Run Winery is proud to partner with Altillo Vineyards from Hurt, Virginia, and three other local Virginia vineyards to bring you a selection of top-notch Virginia wines.
2017 Cabernet Franc
2017 Shiraz
If you like Shiraz you’re going to love this one! Big fruit notes and hints of spice and smoke framed against soft tannins and moderate oak. This is the 2015 vintage and has had an extra year to age in the bottle, meaning that the flavors are smoother and more refined than younger wines. Pairs well with red meat, strong cheeses and pasta with red sauces.
2017 Meritage
Winner of a silver medal in the 2017 Virginia State Fair and gold in the 2018, our signature wine in a bottle that evokes Culpeper’s location on the 1750’s Fry-Jefferson map. This Bordeaux-blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Sauvignon has the perfect balance between dark fruit notes, oak and tannins. Perfect to enjoy now or to cellar away for the holidays, this Meritage can go toe-to-toe with wines twice the price.
