Raspberry Falls Residents Partner in New Winery
Loudoun County's newest winery, the Bluemont Vinyard, opened in October, 2007. Raspberry's own Bob and Loree Rupy are partners in the new venture. Located on the eastern slopes of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Bluemont Vinyard boasts an elevation of about 1,000 feet. Their unique theme is "where elevation not only defines our location, but also our goal."

We have been operating since the end of September and have been very well received by the Great Country Farm traffic and general wine enthusiasts. This weekend November 17th and 18th we will be celebrating our grand opening. Please drop by and enjoy music, soups/chili, shopping, and WINE! I operate a small home decor and antique shop out of the tasting room.
Please check out our web site for general information and directions.
Come see us Friday thru Monday 11AM-5PM.
