About 868 Estate Vineyards:
Three families in pursuit of a shared passion joined forces to create 868 Estate Vineyards on the Loudoun County Wine Trail.The adventure began when Peter Deliso, Wendy Charron and Carl DiManno, all with a strong interest in amazing wine and hospitality experiences, decided to take the bold step to open a premier vineyard and winery. The group began the long search throughout Northern Virginia for the right combination of soils, beautiful views, and friendly neighbors.
Three years later (2012), their dream became reality when Peter Deliso, Wendy Charron and Carl DiManno, together with their families, established 868 Estate Vineyards on 120 acres of forests, orchards and gardens on Harpers Ferry Road. In the tasting room, they pour a variety of wines including Pinot Grigio, Rose’, Chardonnay, Merlot, Bordeaux blends and others. They have over 22 acres of vines planted and produce over 4,000 cases of wine per year.
