Sugarleaf Vineyards: A Wine Colors Trip to Remember


This past Saturday, the Wine Colors crew traveled to Sugarleaf Vineyards in North Garden, Virginia, to join in celebration for the fifth anniversary of their tasting room. 

Just 10 minutes outside Charlottesville, Sugarleaf Vineyards is a family-owned and operated boutique winery located on an 126 acre estate. 

This treasure of the Virginia’s Monticello Wine Trail offers wines of superior quality in a breathtaking setting.  Notably, Sugarleaf Vineyards is one of only two African American owned vineyards on the East Coast.
After one taste of several Sugarleaf Vineyard’s signature wines, Wine Colors was smitten.  We strongly recommend you make the trek.  Our entire experience at Sugarleaf Vineyards was outstanding.  From the knowledgeable and welcoming staff who freely answered our questions to pristine views of the vineyard landscape, and of course their well crafted wines, Sugarleaf is more than a must visit place; it is a must visit experience.

Check out a video below about our visit, which includes wine tasting tips from Sugarleaf staff and an interview with owner Jerry Bias.
