🍾 Exciting News! 🍾
We are thrilled to share that Emily Hodson, our Head Winemaker, has been honored with the 2025 Rich Smith Award of Excellence!  This prestigious award recognizes Emily’s passion, commitment, and collaboration in advancing the American grape and wine industry. From pioneering research with @vawrex to leading the charge in grapevine innovation, her impact is felt far beyond our vineyards.  “Emily is a rare leader who leverages science as a means to advance the industry,” said Donnell Brown, President of NGRA. “Her work developing the Winemakers Research Exchange has given her fellow Virginia winemakers a launchpad for experimentation and innovation. With it, they’ve lifted the state to the status of wine region to watch—and invest in—even by vintners in Bordeaux, as we saw this past summer. And the grapevine breeding work she has helped to spearhead will sustain the state’s wine industry long into the future. Emily’s legacy is already taking shape right before our eyes.”  Colleen Frei of Winegrape Growers of America added, “Emily’s engagement with others to foster relationships across the industry and her steadfast efforts to further the grape and wine community align with Rich Smith’s amazing legacy.”  Join us in raising a glass to Emily, an incredible leader, winemaker, and visionary who is shaping the future of Virginia wine!  📸: @abbygracephoto
