Rebec Vineyards
|
|
We are conveniently located right off Hwy 29, north of the town of Amherst. The vineyard is planted on land that is gently rolling with an expansive view of the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. The winery of rich weathered chestnut siding completes this tranquil setting in Amherst County, Virginia. In 1980, Richard planted the eight acres of noble vitis vinifera grapes. By 1987, Rebec Vineyards began selling under the Rebec label. Now, sixteen years later, thirteen wines are marketed via winery visits, festivals, and a number of retail establishments. Visitors are encouraged to learn more about the art of winemaking through tours and wine tasting here at Rebec. The tours are free.

A full-bodied wine with a deep garnet color. Aged in oak, it can be enjoyed now or cellared for future savoring with lamb and beef entrees. Dry.

A classic complex white wine aged in oak, with unusual depth and richness. At Rebec Vineyards, the Chardonnay is our Thanksgiving and Holiday wine. Dry.

A distinctive blend of vinifera grapes with aroma and flavor enhanced by oak aging. This wine complements most foods, especially seafood and poultry, and is our favorite with primavera. Dry.

Merlot
A delicately balanced soft wine that's very easy to sip by itself, or in combination with a butter-tender filet mignon. Just a hint of sweetness. Dry.

Pinot Noir
The classic red grape of Burgundy yields wine rich in color, smoothness, and taste. The perfect Chateaubriand. Dry.

Sweet Sofia
An herbal-flavored Bulgarian-style wine, presented by Rebec Vineyards' winemaker, Svetlozar Kanev. It is just right for sipping, or as an after-dinner treat. A 'niche' wine for special occasions, it also goes well with Cajun, Mexican, Oriental, and Indian cuisine.

Viognier
A nice alternative to Chardonnay, this jewel of a wine is at last becoming known in the United States. For centuries, its distinctive bouquet has been the North Rhone Valley's best-kept secret. Dry.
