Altillo Vineyards
|
|
Formerly Altavista Vineyards, we are a small family-run vineyard and winery, an easy 30 minute drive South from Lynchburg VA, 6.5 miles off of US HWY 29. We specialize in limited production of finely crafted wines. Our vineyard currently produces shiraz, chardonnay, viognier, merlot, cabernet franc, and cabernet sauvignon. We supplement our own production by purchases of a small amount of high quality grapes from other Virginia growers. Our small scale enables us to provide the care and attention to detail required to produce exceptional wines. We appreciate the opportunity to share these wines with other lovers of fine wine. With each visit you can relax and feel at home.
