West Virginia Wine, in Brief
West Virginia's wineries are small farm operations in the Eastern Panhandle near Harpers Ferry, the hills along the Ohio River and the mountain valleys of the Potomac Highlands. Hybrids and fruit wines dominate, with a few producers growing vinifera on the warmer slopes.
They pair well with the state's outdoor draws: the New River Gorge, the Greenbrier and the Shenandoah's western edge.
