Main Building with Silo -- RvD Winery Delaplane (VA) Febvruary 2024 Per Wikipedia: "Although the agricultural community of Delaplane (VA) is historically associated with champion Black Angus cattle, Delaplane today comprises almost two-thirds of the Middleburg American Viticultural Area, with the Delaplane, U.S. zip code encompassing more working vineyards than any other outside of Sonoma Valley (CA). 'Viticulture' (from the Latin word for vine) or wine growing is the cultivation and harvesting of grapes. It is a branch of the science of horticulture. While the native territory of Vitis vinifera, the common grape vine, ranges from Western Europe to the Persian shores of the Caspian Sea, the vine has demonstrated high levels of adaptability to new environments, hence viticulture can be found on every continent except Antarctica. Duties of the viticulturist include monitoring and controlling pests and diseases, fertilizing, irrigation, canopy management, monitoring fruit development and characteristics, deciding when to harvest, and vine pruning during the winter months. Viticulturists are often intimately involved with winemakers, because vineyard management and the resulting grape characteristics provide the basis from which winemaking can begin. The RvD Winery comprises both the growing and harvesting of the grapes, and the winemaking process itself (grape crushing, pressing, fermentation, clarification, and aging/bottling). IMG_1435
