AmRhein’s Wine Cellars Claimed

We won the coveted Virginia Governor’s Cup award twice…we design great wines!

We’re passionate about making wine and have a deep respect for the land. It comes naturally to us. We’ve been practicing viticulture for 22 years and designing wine for 18 years.

We both grew up in Salem, VA, graduated from Glenvar High School and began this journey simply because we personally enjoy wines. Everywhere we have traveled, over almost 50 years together, a winery stop was part of our trip. ‘Do what you love’ is our life’s motto.

In addition, we have always had an appreciation for agriculture so, we put our acreage at our Bent Mountain home to good use and entered the world of viticulture.

It took many how-to conferences and much learning from other wine makers in Virginia, but we are both determined self-learners who are driven by passion and a good challenge.
