West Field - Fer Servadou
Of the 36 acres located in Hillsboro Virginia, over 10 acres are planted with
vines split into three fields. The West field located just past the Civil War
era stone wall is planted with Fer Servadou a red
French grape. The upper East field located in front of the Tasting Room is
planted with both Petit Verdot and
Tannat, both of which are red varieties originating in France. The
lower East field located in from of the Estate is planted with
Petit Menseng a white French varietal. The North field located on the
hilly slope behind the Tasting Room is home to our Cabernet
Sauvignon.
The varietals chosen and planted at Hillsborough are not only ideal for the
northern Virginia microclimate, but yield fruit of exceptional quality.
Meticulous care is given to the maintenance and cultivation of our plants with
emphasis on environmentally friendly forms of pest management. Every aspect of
the annual growth cycle is carefully planned and managed. Leaving nothing to
chance, we foster an ideal environment for superb grape production.
