We are so excited to invite you and your friends to our April event at Dover Hall Estate in Manakin-Sabot.

At this price point, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy a 5-course small-plate wine tasting event at Dover Hall Estate featuring their very own wines from 7 Lady Vineyards.   This breathtaking Goochland castle pays homage to 19th century European history and will be an elegant backdrop for our evening.  Their vineyards were added to the 55 rolling acre property in 2019 and they say their wines were named in tribute to the seven beautiful ladies that embody the heartbeat of the owners’ families. Their highly anticipated wine tasting room is now under construction with plans to open in 2025.

We hope you’ll join us! To maximize attendance at this event, we are going co-ed. You are welcome to bring your spouse/significant other to enjoy the festivities.  There will be a cash bar available for additional cocktails or wines by the glass. They will accept credit card ONLY for drinks & cash for tip

Even our monthly member wine raffle will kick up a notch and include two award-winning 7 Lady Vineyard wines. 

  • For the white wine – 2023 + 2024, Virginia Governor’s Cup, Gold Medal – Albariño 2020, VA
  • For the red wine — 2023, San Francisco International Wine Competition, Silver Medal & 2022 + 2023, Virginia Governor’s Cup, Silver Medal – Cabernet Franc 2017, VA
