The Virginia Wine Experience

Long recognized for outstanding culinary offerings, The Omni Homestead Resort & Spa features the Virginia Wine Experience. Located near the resort’s grand Dining Room, the Virginia Wine Experience focuses solely on the wines of the Commonwealth, showcasing the history of winegrowing in Virginia from the founding of Jamestown in 1607 through today.

Here, guests can select from distinct wine flights or wines by the glass at the Tasting Parlor, with bottles available for purchase. Each month, a prominent Virginia winery is profiled, and guests have the opportunity to meet with the winery owner/vintner and enjoy an exclusive, private dinner which will be complemented with wines from the featured winery.

The Virginia Wine Experience offers ongoing special events, educational seminars, and tastings of some of Virginia’s most limited and unique wines.

The Tasting Parlor

Enjoy our thoughtfully curated white wine, red wine, reserve wines and unique and interesting wines. Each flight includes a tasting of five wines. Enhance your experience with our cheese and charcuterie board. Reservations are not required. 


Events   

Monthly Wine Weekends

Each month, we will feature a different winery and the opportunity to learn more about the wines and vintners.

February's Featured Winery: Walsh Family Wine

Flight Menu | $45

  • ‘21 Bethany Ridge Petit Manseng | A medium-bodied wine with heady aromas of lush tropical fruit that lead into notes of apricot, passion fruit and yellow apple.
  • ‘21 Paeonia White | An opulent white wine, with aromatics of ripe pear, honeyed apricot, and lightly toasted apricots. A hint of delicate floral undertones. Dense, sappy mouthfeel full of tropical fruits, baking spice, and crème brulee leads into a wonderful acidic driven finish.
  • ‘20 Russ Mountain Merlot | Russ Mountain produces what on might refer to as “mountain fruit” qualities in the wine – a brambly, spicey, very open and pronounced aromatic intensity followed by a dense and vibrant mid-palate.
  • ‘21 Bethany Ridge Tannat | Highly ripe, very powerful, with potent, slightly grippy tannins. What is most exciting about the Bethany Ridge Tannat is how the wine will age over the next ten years. There is no reason to expect that is will not develop and become more and more interesting over time.
  • ‘19 Late Harvest Petit Manseng | Rich, with restrained intensity, this has aromas of toasted graham-cracker crumb, spiced orange marmalade, peach preserves and wilted rose. It feels slightly pudgy on the midpalate, with a tapering finish that ends on a buttered-caramel note.
