So last night I had the opportunity to see a screening of a new documentary about the making of the 2008 vintage of wine in Virginia. Â Filmmakers Bill Reifenberger and Benjamin Clore spent time at several Virginia vineyards and wineries, including Jefferson, Blenheim, Pollak, Keswick, King Family, and several others, finding out what makes Virginia wine unique, and the challenges faced by winemakers in this region.
It will be airing on PBS nationally, and you can visit the Vintage website for more details about the film and when and where you can see it, or to order a DVD. Â This is a great look into Virginia wine making, and especially for my readers living in Virginia, this is one worth checking out.
