"Afton Mountain Vineyards is an anomaly in Virginia: a winery that combines the newest and the oldest. Our modernity is obvious in the gleaming, stainless steel winemaking equipment and tanks imported from Italy and Germany. But what you find at Afton Mountain Vineyards that you do not find at many other Virginia wineries is the ancient technology evident in our gravity flow processing system, in which we use gravity to move whole grapes and must and thus eliminate the potential for damage that pumping presents, and in our wine cave, an ideal environment for aging wines as old as winemaking itself."
