North Gate Vineyard is situated in on approximately 26 acres
in the northwest part of Loudoun County, Virginia. Nestled
against the eastern base of the Short Hill mountains (foothills
to the Blue Ridge), North Gate Vineyard produces high quality
wine grapes for its own set of wines as well as other wineries
in Virginia. Husband and wife team Mark and Vicki have been growing grapes since 2002 and have been part of the winemaking scene in Loudoun since 2003 as winemakers for a small 1500 case per year farm winery. Now they bring their award-winning winemaking style to their own set of Virginia wines.
North Gate does not have a public tasting room at this time. Wines are offered at select local wineries, markets, retail outlets, and festivals.
"We believe that quality wine comes from quality
grapes. Pure and simple. So how do we ensure that we'll
end up with quality wine? Through our commitment to meticulous
practices in our vineyard and cellar from bloom to bottle.
To us, this is not a job, and not a hobby, but just something
that we do together. We hope you enjoy the product of our
hearts, minds and hands."
- Mark and Vicki Fedor, Winegrowers and
Winemakers
