点评:It’s two days in a row that Pride in the Vines has brought Jo and I to a special winery experience. In this case it wasn’t our first visit but things were much different this time.
The first time we visited Zephaniah Farm Winery was probably a decade ago and they had no tasting room. We had our tasting in the basement of their home, a very personal approach. Although they now have a beautiful Amish tasting room, we were still greeted by Bonnie at the door and throughout our seated tasting we had the pleasure of being entertained in conversation with Bill who explained both the history of the farm and the metamorphosis of his vineyard. It was every bit as personal as our first visit.
The wines are top notch, the 3 whites and the 4 reds we tried were all excellent. Jo, the white wine drinker even enjoyed the Chambourcin. We will be drinking that bottle this evening! Thanks once again to Visit Loudoun and their Pride in the Vines program for reminding us of this gem of a winery. We will be back soon.
翻译:连续两天,Pride in the Vines 给乔和我带来了一次特别的酒庄体验。这不是我们第一次来,但这次情况有很大不同。
我们第一次参观 Zephaniah 农场酒庄可能是十年前,他们没有品酒室。我们在他们家的地下室进行了品尝,这是一种非常个性化的方式。尽管他们现在有一个漂亮的阿米什品酒室,但邦妮仍然在门口迎接我们,在我们坐着的品酒过程中,我们很高兴与比尔交谈,他解释了农场的历史和葡萄园的变迁。这和我们第一次来访一样个性化。
这里的葡萄酒是一流的,我们尝试的 3 种白葡萄酒和 4 种红葡萄酒都很棒。喜欢喝白葡萄酒的乔甚至喜欢喝香槟酒。今晚我们要喝那瓶酒!再次感谢参观劳登 (Visit Loudoun) 和他们的“葡萄园骄傲”计划,让我们想起了这家酒庄的瑰宝。我们很快就会回来。
