Winery lovers will be pleased with this news we received via a press release:
CENTREVILLEâGovernor Ralph Northam today announced that The Winery at Bull Run will invest $1.7 million, create 38 new jobs, and double production of its award-winning wines, which are made using only Virginia-grown grapes. The winery, which opened in 2012 on 225 acres adjacent to the Manassas National Battlefield Park, also produces grapes on site and at its 40-acre vineyard in Rappahannock County. Its location by the battlefield and proximity to Washington D.C. have made the winery an important tourist attraction, bringing thousands of tourists to the Commonwealth each year.
âThe Commonwealth is home to a vibrant agribusiness economy, with the Virginia wine industry contributing nearly $1.37 billion dollars to our economy each year. Todayâs expansion is a clear sign that Virginiaâs world class wine industry is continuing to grow and succeed,â said Governor Northam. âStrong local support for these businesses is essential to maintaining their growth, and I am pleased that we are able to assist with this important expansion.â
