The Stinson Vineyards is located at 4744 Sugar Hollow Rd, in White Hall, Virginia. It is described as a "family-owned estate winery in Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains specializing in small lot wines with a distinct French influence. The father/daughter team of Scott and Rachel STINSON takes inspiration from 'garagiste' wineries of France, in both their winemaking techniques and the winery itself, which is built into an old three car garage." The STINSON patriarch of Virginia, Alexander STINSON, who lived and prospered in the neighboring county of Buckingham, would be proud that STINSONs continue living off the Virginia land as he had begun so long ago. "So Obscure A Person” is the story of our ancient forebear "Alex'r STINSON" who as a young man in the 1730s had petitioned the Virginia Council for 12,000 acres and was rejected as "too much land for 'so obscure a person'."
