The Virginia Wine Experience

Long recognized for outstanding culinary offerings, The Omni Homestead Resort & Spa features the Virginia Wine Experience. Located near the resort’s grand Dining Room, the Virginia Wine Experience focuses solely on the wines of the Commonwealth, showcasing the history of winegrowing in Virginia from the founding of Jamestown in 1607 through today.

Here, guests can select from distinct wine flights or wines by the glass at the Tasting Parlor, with bottles available for purchase. Each month, a prominent Virginia winery is profiled, and guests have the opportunity to meet with the winery owner/vintner and enjoy an exclusive, private dinner which will be complemented with wines from the featured winery.

The Virginia Wine Experience offers ongoing special events, educational seminars, and tastings of some of Virginia’s most limited and unique wines.

The Tasting Parlor

Enjoy our thoughtfully curated white wine, red wine, reserve wines and unique and interesting wines. Each flight includes a tasting of five wines. Enhance your experience with our cheese and charcuterie board. Reservations are not required.

Monthly Wine Weekends

Each month, we will feature a different winery and the opportunity to learn more about the wines and vintners.

March's Featured Winery: Joy Ting Wine

Flight Menu | $45

• ‘23 Santé Pet Nat | Aromatic notes of bright citrus lime and tangerine, balanced by subtle hints of fresh brioche and soft cereal. The palate is crisp and refreshing, with zesty limeade-like tartness, complemented by a light sweetness and a smooth, effervescent texture. The finish is clean and mouthwatering, making it a perfect match for salty snacks or light appetizers.
• ‘21 Vin de Jour Chardonel | Opens with bright aromas of sweet citrus (lemon, lime, grapefruit) and hints of melon along with white flowers and distinctive lanolin notes. A medium-bodied white that features pronounced acidity and white pepper spice. With honeyed undertones and the complexity of bottle age, the wine shares characteristics with Petit Chablis or lighter styled Chenin Blanc.
• ‘22 Mes Amis Chardonnay | This Chardonnay presents an inviting nose of honeysuckle, orange blossom and light caramel. The body is smooth and refreshing showcasing a bright mix of citrus—tangerine, orange, and lemon—alongside juicy white peach and fresh apricot with soft citrus peel bitterness that lingers, giving the wine a refreshing, round character. There’s no hint of butter here, making it a vibrant, fruit-forward expression with a warmer, riper profile.
• ‘21 Amuse Cabernet Franc | This Cabernet Franc has a rich garnet color and a nose full of dark fruit—blackberries, plums, and a touch of brambleberry—along with a nice herbal kick, like fresh mint. You’ll also get hints of currant, clove, and a little tobacco, with just a whisper of pepper spice. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied with lively acidity and juicy flavors of ripe black fruit, herbs, and pepper. The tannins are smooth and soft, and the finish is long, leaving behind dark fruit and a hint of tobacco.
• ‘22 Rosso di Monticello | This wine opens up with aromas of juicy plums, blueberries, and a hint of sweet flowers, with just a touch of earthy character. On the palate, you’ll find vibrant flavors of red fruit like cherry and plum, with a little pop of blueberry sweetness and a dash of dried leaves and thyme. The moderate acidity and tannin provide structure without overpowering the fruit. With a lingering finish of red fruit and just enough complexity, this wine is enjoyable now but has the potential to evolve beautifully with time.
