Boordy Vineyards

To finish up our last weekend in Maryland, we decided to visit a winery.


Boordy Vineyards is Maryland's oldest family run winery. Established in 1945, Boordy is owned by the R.B. Deford family and is situated on their 230-acre farm in the Baltimore countryside.


There were rows of carefully tended vines with dark purple grapes and a cluster of beautiful and charming 19th century farm buildings.


The weather was perfect!


We attended the wine tasting and tour.


The wine selection included oak-aged cabernets, crisp chardonnays & seyval blancs. One of my favorites was a Veritas Maryland port.

We each received score cards and in our own way coded which ones we liked best.

Anny, Jason, Charma and Rodney.

We relaxed in the shade and enjoyed a bottle of Shiraz.

On the tour we learned that Boordy produces 70,000 gallons of wine annually and....Hmmm.... I don't remember much more of the tour after that.

We are very sophisticated wine drinkers!

We restrained ourselves and only bought 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or so bottles to take with us. I hope we can get them home.... :)
