Located in the town of Purcellville, about an hour drive northwest of Washington, D.C., Hillsborough Vineyards is now home to the largest planting of Fer Servadou in the U.S. Husband and wife Bora and Zeynep Baki purchased the 36- acre Hillsborough property in 2001 and planted the initial vines in 2003. Today, Hillsborough is home to 12 acres of vineyards including four acres planted of Fer Servadou.

"Route 9 takes you through the one-time mill town of Hillsboro, a picturesque clutch of stone houses clinging to a hillside. The fieldstone look continues as you enter Hillsborough Vineyards. Seated tastings in the French-country-style tasting room can be paired with European cheeses and charcuterie. Red wines here are unfiltered, a style that winemaker Kerem Baki uses to preserve flavor and aroma.

"The scenic Hillsborough Vineyards, located in a quaint pre-Civil War village, is an old manor house that was converted into a winery about 15 years ago, Hosbach says. And, he adds, the sunset views of the nearby valley are the best around. "Sit in an Adirondack chair under a canopy of vines and sip wine specialties, while savoring charcuterie and exotic cheeses and watch the sunset over the Shenandoah Valley..."
