The unexpected is everywhere you turn at West Main. The variety of artists and styles is dizzying, but the camaraderie among those artists is the real treat here.

Drive 25 miles west of Washington, DC into Loudoun today and you’re entering DC’s Wine Country®. Loudoun now has more than 50 wineries and tasting rooms in stunning settings from river-crossed valleys to mountain slopes. Taking experimental cues from Lew, our acclaimed winemakers produce everything from Albariño, Bordeaux and Chardonnay to Norton, Tannat, Viognier and so much more.

It’s seriously a vacation all by itself!
