Fall Updates from Delaplane

Hello friends! As we head into the colder months, we wanted to make you aware of some important updates regarding reservations at Delaplane Cellars.

Many of you who visited last winter will recall our heated tent area on the lower deck. We are removing the tent this year, but don't fret! We have exciting things planned for that space. Beginning Saturday, November 13th, our upper deck area will feature firepit tables that can be reserved here.

The upper deck will have some additional seating with outdoor heaters which is available on a first-come, first-served basis. You can make a reservation for a table inside our tasting room for groups of up to six people on Saturdays and Sundays. These reservations are for two-hour time blocks and are available at 11 a.m., 1:30 p.m., and 4 p.m. Please be sure to let us know if anyone in your party has a mobility restriction, as some of our seating is located up a flight of stairs.

If you’re interested in booking a larger group, please give us a call to discuss your options.

As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at info@delaplanecellars.com or call 540-592-7210.

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.
