Background
The website says that "Pippin Hill Farm is envisioned as a fresh interpretation of the classic winery through expertise of a collaboration of artisans, winemakers, local farm producers and event designers." The building contains green engineering techniques such as using sustainably-farmed lumber and a geothermal heating and cooling system, rainwater harvesting and natural stone and wood finishes."
The operation philosophy is to "preserve and protect the rural agrarian nature of the farm environs." Grapes include Savignon Blanc, Petit Verdot, and Viognier varieties grown from Virginia vineyards.
They offer a range of wines including Chardonnay, Viognier, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Meritage blends and seasonal sparkling Blanc de Blanc and Rose Wines.
Pandemic
In 2020, Pippin Hill Farm and Vineyards received $50,000 as part of the Albemarle County Lift Grants program to assist businesses in the wake of the COVID-19 Emergency. [2]
