Even though Lee Duquette does not drink wine, he likes to treat his wife to wine tasting now and then. So on this date, the two RV Gypsies visited Fox Meadow Vineyards Winery in Linden, Virginia. |

"Fox Meadow Winery is nestled on 50 acres of beautiful mountain property situated at 1,750 feet elevation on Blue Mountain near Linden, Virginia. The vineyard was started on the former Freezeland Orchard property in 2003 with 5 acres of vines and has now grown to over 14 acres of vines. The estate grown varieties including chardonnay, riesling, pinot grigio, vidal blanc, chambourcin, petit verdot, merlot, cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc.Founded more than 15 years ago, Dan and Cheryl Mortland, along with their son Bob Mortland, planted the first vines and created a beautiful and thriving vineyard. The current owners, Amanda and Whiticar Darvill, are leading the business into the future with Bob continuing as the vineyard manager."NOTE: The above quote and more information on the winery can be found on the winery website BUT BE SURE TO RETURN HERE because the two RV Gypsies are NOT connected to the winery in any manner.You can also make reservations for the testing room. Below is a photo of the small parking lot that the two RV Gypsies were lucky enough to find a parking spot in. |

Below: The four skimpy wine samples Karen Duquette received. Although they were good, they were pricey, and very chintzy on the amount of wine to taste, which sad to say, is not unusual at wineries. And although the two RV Gypsies consider wine tasting a luxury that they do not do too often, this place was crowded. |
