The Winemakers Research Exchange is a non-profit organization of Virginia winemakers pursuing quality improvement through practical experimentation in vineyards and wineries.
Experimental results are evaluated using appropriate chemical measures. Sensory sessions allow for blind tasting and group discussion of each project.
Results from past experiments are shared during sensory sessions, on the website, through newsletters, and at regional and national meetings.
2025 is keeping Virginia winemakers on their toes this harvest season! With unpredictable weather patterns and ripening curves that are anything but ordinary, staying flexible and informed is more important than ever. Don’t forget to explore our Harvest Tips Library, where you’ll find a curated collection of videos, practical advice, and lessons learned from past WRE experiments--all designed to help you make confident, informed decisions in the vineyard and the cellar.
