City Vino's journey began long before its doors first opened. The Allans, who moved to Virginia 25 years ago, were introduced to the world of wine by friends from their church.

The Allans connected with other Wegmans regulars who led them to the Fredericksburg Wine Society and the King George Wine Society, part of the American Wine Society (AWS).

Betty Washington Lewis and her husband Fielding Lewis began construction on Kenmore in 1769, and the family moved in by the fall of 1775. The Fredericksburg plantation originally covered 1,270 acres, now reduced to a single city block. Kenmore is notable for its 18th-century decorative plasterwork ceilings. After Fielding's death in 1781, the property passed to his first-born son, John, while Betty stayed on for 14 more years. Kenmore has had eleven owners and has been owned by The George Washington Foundation since 1925. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1970.
