Our new Adjacency will debut at September Wine Dinners!

We are excited to announce that we have a brand new wine label that will be making its debut at the last alfresco wine dinners of the season, on September 25th and 26th! The 2019 Adjacency is a blend of 37% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Cabernet Franc, 16% Petit Verdot, 11% Merlot, and 9% Tannat. This blend offers beautiful aromas of blackberry and vanilla that carry through on the palate, along with hints of black plum and coffee. 

Chef Dunlap has created a truly spectacular menu for this event, and we hope you'll consider joining us. Click here to make your reservation now.

A Brand New Wine for our August Wine Dinners!

As we enter the last month of summer, our al fresco wine dinner series with Chef David Dunlap is in full swing! We are excited to share that we will be releasing new wines for the upcoming dinners on August 21st and 22nd.

For the first time, the 2019 Winemaker's Reserve Chardonnay will be available to the public; only 30 cases of this wine were made, and it was inspired by and created for our owners, so it is a rare treat for this wine to be available. We are also revealing a brand new label for Delaplane Cellars: our Aitheras white blend. This refreshing blend of Vidal Blanc and Chardonnay is full of white flowers and citrus peel, with a beautiful clean finish. Finally, diners for this event will also get to experience a mini vertical, with two vintages of our celebrated Left Bank on the menu: 2013 and 2017.

The seasons may be changing but we are keeping our regular hours in the Tasting Room. We are open seven days a week; 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays- Thursdays and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Fridays-Sundays.
(However, we will close at 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 15. Also, our Tasting Room is closed on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Year's Eve, so our staff can enjoy the holiday season, too! But, we are open New Year's Day, Jan. 1!)

Remember, we only seat guests outside at this time. But, to keep you warm, we are serving our seasonal mulled wine by the glass. We keep things cozy with heaters on our covered lower deck; we also have fire pits and heaters on our top deck. Fuzzy blankets also are available, by request, if you feel a chill.

Want to gather a small group, safely and in style? Try our loft area, available for private bookings only. Call us, 540-592-7210, or email, info@DelaplaneCellars.com, for details.
