In celebration of International Women's Day, we take a moment to spotlight the talented women at the core of our operations. Their forward-thinking and leadership pave the way, embodying the essence of innovation and excellence. Guided by the extraordinary Maya Hood White, our winemaking program benefits immensely from the passion, expertise, and leadership of a predominantly female team. Their invaluable contributions not only shape the quality of our wines but also define the spirit of innovation and excellence in the wine and hospitality industry.&nbsp;In honor of this special day, we've invited these remarkable women to share their top wine recommendations for the season—selections that not only reflect their personal tastes but also embody the transitional nature of this time of year. Their selections are a curated celebration of the diverse styles and expressions that Virginia wine has to offer, each bottle a testament to their skill and the collective achievement of women in our field.&nbsp;<a href="https://store.earlymountain.com/product/International-Women-s-Day-Set">The International Women's Day Set&nbsp;</a>&nbsp;Maya Hood White, Head Winemaker - <a href="https://store.earlymountain.com/product/2021-Petit-Manseng?productListName=All%20Wines&amp;position=4">2021 Petit Manseng</a>Julia Graves, Assistant Winemaker - <a href="https://store.earlymountain.com/product/2021-Petit-Manseng?productListName=All%20Wines&amp;position=4">2021 Petit Manseng</a>Dry and richly textured, our 2021 Petit Manseng signs with notes of grilled pineapple, lemon, caramelized apple, and a subtle brioche undertone.
