Yannick Benjamin: Glen Manor Vineyards is “the most spectacular site on the East Coast”

In recent edition of Laura Maniec’s #SommsWeLove, Yannick Benjamin, a New York City-based sommelier and one of the co-founders of Wheeling Forward, gave a shout out to Glen Manor Vineyards.

Q: What is an off the radar producer, wine or region that more people need to know about?

A: In March of 2021, I explored Virginia Wine Country and I had one of the most enlightening visits of my career with Jeff White of Glen Manor Vineyards, which is located about 70 miles west of Washington DC. This family-owned vineyard in my opinion is the most spectacular site on the East Coast.
