King Family & Veritas Wineries, Abermarle & Nelson Counties, VA


To read this you need to imagine a slick of sweat across your body and breathing in air as warm as soup... then gaze at the mountain, the fresh green vines and the idyllically, over-perfect buildings and add in the easy-win of a chilled glass of white - Voignier, to be precise.

Virginian wine is not a given love but it's fun getting to know it. No polo on the King Family pitch today, though I suspect we'll be back for a match in the Fall and a touch of tailgating, which is the American take on the picnic!

Donkey petting en route with a two peppermint ration per beast.
