Arterra Wines & Hawkmoth Arts
Arterra Wines & Hawkmoth Arts capture the ‘hidden gem’ effect. Traveling just a few minutes finds you in a beaultful wooded landscape, where anyone can find that breath of fresh air, and a great place to carry on a conversation with your partner or friends. All the wines are 100% Native Yeast Fermentations, neutral oak, minimalist – resulting in Clean wines and True Terroir wines, and are revered among the top wines in Virginia. The craftsmanship focus carries through the nature inspired works of Hawkmoth Arts, and is everpresent throughout your visit in the authentic timberframed tasting room. Once you arrive at the patio and entrance, your view and experience consists of nothing but natural beauty, as the seating areas offer views without the interruption of a single vehicle or neighboring structure. Arterra offers an immersive wine experience, with 100% table-side service, and a staff trained with comprehensive insight into the wines.
