Favorite daughter of the Greek God, Zeus, Pallas Athena or simply, Pallas is known as the goddess of wisdom. Because of this gift she was charged with overseeing practical arts which included agriculture and winemaking. On the hill of the Acropolis, the Athenians built a temple to Pallas – the Parthenon.Athena Vineyards was established in 2002 by three Nurses. We enjoy healthy lifestyles, working in the vineyard and the finer things in life. Our interest in winemaking led to the construction of our winery in 2005. Athena has become the first commercial vineyard and winery in Northumberland County, Virginia. Visit our tasting room and share our warm hospitality in a beautiful vineyard setting. Our vineyards overlook the Great Wicomico River with 15 acres of over a 20 varieties of grapes. Not far from the Chesapeake Bay, we embrace the lifestyle of the area - crabs, rockfish and oysters are common in the region. Our philosophy of growing grapes and making wine in an environmentally safe manner is an important responsibility to land stewardship and the long-term relationship with our customers, our neighbors and the world. We strive to be environmentally friendly, economically sound and socially responsible with all our winery and viticulture practices.
