A Jewel in Virginia

A couple of weeks ago we had a chance to visit Boxwood Winery with our Siema Wines group of dedicated sale representatives and wine experts. You should know that Boxwood is the first Virginia winery that I actively pursued and wanted for our book; their wines are made with a degree of elegance and finesse not easily found around the wine producing world. The attention to detail both in the vineyards and in the cellar is impressive, hence the wonderful result in the bottle.

I travel around Europe and visit dozens of wineries every year, so I know what I am talking about. The immaculate environment and the techniques implemented at Boxwood are special and unique, from the washing of the entire cellar DAILY, during harvest, to the use of whole grape fermentation technique (incredibly time consuming). Our day spent there was a treat.

I would like to thank Rachel Martin, the President and CEO of Boxwood, and all her staff for being such gracious hosts. We are proud of represent such a fine estate; it is not easy to make the cut to be part of our selection and we are happy to have found our Virginia "jewel".
