Paul and Loretta Briedé of Winchester, Virginia, purchased their land in 2002, long before a single vine was planted. In those early years, the open fields surrounding their home were used for Loretta’s hunter horses—a peaceful, rural setting that hinted at future possibilities.
With a shared love for exceptional wine and a desire for a new adventure, Paul and Loretta established Briedé Family Vineyards in 2013. Their vision was clear: to create a boutique vineyard rooted in sustainable practices, growing healthy grapes that reflect the unique terroir and natural beauty of Virginia.
Today, they proudly produce approximately 800 cases of estate-grown wines each year. For the past 11 years, Paul and Loretta have been honored to contribute to the Virginia Wine Community—crafting wines with purpose, passion, and a deep respect for the land they call home.
