Philip Carter Winery

Discover the First Family of American wine. There are few places that can boast the depth of Virginia wine history that Philip Carter Winery reflects. The family carries a two hundred and fifty year legacy as maker of the first recognized fine wine in America. It was Charles Carter, who, in 1762, sent the London Society for the Encouragement of the Arts a dozen bottles of his Virginia wine. The society awarded Carter a gold medal as the first person to make a “spirited attempt towards the accomplishment of their views, respecting wine in America.” Located in Hume, Philip Carter Winery is seated on 27 acres of rolling hills in the heart of Fauquier County’s Wine Country.
