We here at Well Hung Vineyard are proud to announce that 2 new locations in Central Virginia will be carrying our products!
Siips - on the downtown mall in Charlottesville, VA! 212 E Main St.
Luray Caverns Gift Shops - Luray, Va. The gift shops in Luray (the Country Store, the Entrance Building Shop and the Car and Carriage Caravan Museum Shop) will now be carrying our wines in addition to some of our very fine apparel (aprons, anyone?). Be sure to get yours today! And while you’re there, I hear there’s a cave, or something, you can visit too.
Stay tuned, everyone! We have some pouring/tasting events coming up this weekend that you won’t want to miss!

We here at Well Hung Vineyard are proud to announce that in 2010, we will bring TWO new wine varieties into the Well Hung family.
Ladies and gentlemen, the 2010 Well Hung Petit Verdot / Merlot blend:
Er… ok… maybe it isn’t quite done yet, but trust us, it’ll get there (but don’t the grapes look just delectable fresh off the vine?).
Also, farther back in the truck, not pictured above, are some more delicious looking grapes that will go into our (also NEW) 2010 Rose!
So to summarize, the Well Hung Vineyard 2010 line- Rose, Petit Verdot / Merlot blend, Cabernet Franc, & Chardonnay. That’s right, our line-up has doubled in size!
Bottoms up!

Hey everyone,
Wine Warehouse in Charlottesville is featuring the Well Hung Chardonnay as a part of their special “Select Six” deal this October! During the month of October, head to Wine Warehouse and purchase any 6 of their specially marked wines at a discount! Their newsletter so glowingly describes our Chardonnay, we’re convinced you’ll go home with no less than a 6 pack -
2008 Well Hung Wines Chardonnay
Aside from the fun label and the infinite number of crass jokes and double entendres that inevitably come with it, this new Virginia wine producer actually has the quality where it counts, INSIDE the bottle. Crushed and bottled with the hlep of winemaker Michael Shaps at Virginia Wine Works, the fruit come from the home vineyard of viticulturalist Amy Steers and her husband Bill (a urologist, which adds yet another layer of humor to the name…) and along with their Cabernet Franc create some very well priced wines. Bright ripe apple citrus aromas on the nose with just the slightest notes of vanilla from the oak and an impressively warm, inviting fullness of fruit in the mouth provide everything you would hope for from a Virginia Chardonnay. It would be very easy to find more expensive Chardonnays that don’t provide the enjoyment found here, and if you’re feeling a little juvenile the label will give you a few giggles as well.
There you have it! A good deal on a wine that’s good fun.
Cheers!
