Early Mountain Vineyards

Founded in 2012 by Jean and Steve Case, Early Mountain was born from a vision to craft wines in Virginia that can stand side-by-side with the best in the world. With a focus on quality, innovation, and hospitality, Early Mountain offers wines and guest experiences rooted in a deep connection to Virginia's unique terroir. We carefully tend the vines in our estate vineyards and take a restrained approach in the cellar to showcase the quality of our fruit and the character of each vintage.
