About Us
North Gate Vineyard is owned and operated by Mark and Vicki
Fedor. We started in 1997 by caring for a few neglected grape
vines on the North Gate property we had just purchased. That
small effort has led us down a path which we are still walking.
Along the way we have learned by doing. We've made some mistakes,
had some successes, worked hard, and had a lot of fun. More
importantly, we've met some smart, wonderful people who have
helped mentor us and cultivate the passion and dedication
for excellence that we have for growing grapes and making
wine.
From 2003 through the 2006 vintage, Mark and Vicki were the
winemakers for Corcoran
Vineyards (formerly Waterford Vineyards) in Waterford,
Virginia. Our vintages have garnered over 50
medals in national and international competitions. We
are proud of these accomplishments, but we continue to strive
to set the standards higher for Loudoun County and Virginia
wines.
As we have mentioned, the path is neverending, there is always
something new to learn in this business. We hope you find
this web site inspirational and educational. Please check
out the other pages to find out more details about our
vineyard, our wines, and our winemaking
philosophies. Please drop us a line as we love to hear
comments, suggestions and answer questions.
