To Commemorate our nearly 2 years of wine tasting, as well as the addition of 2 more contributors, we would like to give a little extra recognition to our favourite wine experiences of the past year. And do this by having our inaugural ECoast Wine Glass Awards. For this first year we would like to give out 3 awards for red, white and specialty wines (Basically anything not general considered white or red). Along with these wine awards we are also giving one award to the best winery tasting experience we had in the past year.

This past Saturday was the grand opening of a wonderful new winery in central Virginia called the Glass House Winery. So of course this meant I was on hand to check out the newest selection of wines to come to my neck of the woods. And I have to say i was well impressed by this new comer to the Virginia wine industry. Not only are the wines delicious and interesting but the location and presentation of the winery itself is not to be missed.
