Favorite Wine: Heritage
Keswick is one of our favorite wineries in VA. Their wines are consistently first rate -- they have some great powerhouse reds that are real standouts. Try the easy drinking Trevillian, the more full bodied Touriga, or the Heritage. Hints of smoke, dark, earthy -- superb; but we're big fans so probably a bit biased. Less complimentary? Okay: the tasting room can get crowded, often there's a line to sample the wines, and they run sales behind the same crowded tasting counter which we fine a little annoying. Still, in the summer you have some escape options: they have a couple nice spots on the porch and outside overlooking the pond where you can enjoy a glass of wine with friends.
