In the quiet suburb of South Riding three friends came together to create the state’s first urban micro winery. On Sunday, September 16 we had the pleasure of meeting David Gaetani, winemaker and CEO, Jay DeCianno, COO and David Camden, CFO at their premier wine tasting event hosted by WineStyles in South Riding and Son Distributors.

The Quattro Goombas Winery blends old world methods passed on by their ancestors over many generations. Their grapes are sourced from the top growing regions around the world, which produce outstanding varietals. They brought in their first shipment of grapes from California, crushing them in September 2006, blending them in May and bottling 100 cases in June. The resulting  wines are Vino Di Nonni “Grandfather Wine”, Vino Di San Pietro and Vino D’Ana1. Vino di Nonni “Grandfather Wine” is a light bodied, fruity red wine, which you can serve chilled. It is also a secret recipe passed on from their ancestors. Great for those white wine lovers who might be shy of reds. 2. Vino Di San Pietro is a medium bodied red made up of 80% Sangiovese grape, which made us think we were back in Tuscany. It was very smooth with soft tannins.3. Vino D’Ana, named after Dave Gaetani’s sister Diana, a full bodied red wine which is 50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 50% Merlot. We found this wine to be exceptionally smooth. It was our favorite.We were not sure what to expect when we showed up at WineStyles. We had never heard of an urban micro winery before and now we are one of their biggest fans. Besides the Quattro Goombas warm reception and professionalism, the wine was truly one of a kind for Loudoun County.In the spring of 2008 the Quattro Goombas will have the grand opening of their tasting room.
