Who says dessert requires a sweet w**e? Chris breaks down why our 2024 Malbec and 2022 Barrel Aged Chardonnay pair shockingly well with local Catoctin Mountain Orchard pies.

Eat local, drink local, and keep your pairings simple. Drop by Suite 200 this week to try a pour.

The forecast had other plans for Between the Rows this year, so we brought the afternoon into the Lounge—and, honestly, the vineyard still found its way into the room.

Parker put together a behind-the-scenes slideshow at what’s happening between the rows, while Melissa and Ray poured us through the 2025 and 2026 vintages, sharing barrel and tank samples alongside previews of w**es that aren’t quite ready for their debut.

There was plenty to taste, plenty to talk about, and a seriously good charcuterie spread.

It may not have been the passeggiata we originally planned, but the afternoon still gave us what we were hoping for: a closer look at what’s growing, fermenting, and aging to shape Simple Theory.

Thanks to everyone who joined us and rolled with the weather.

First Saturday is Cheese Saturday in the tasting lounge this weekend.

We’ve teamed up with our friends at Frederick Cheese Shop on a curated pairing: five of our w**es, each matched with one of their artisan cheeses. It’s a fitting way to welcome fall and the first cool evenings.

Walk-ins are welcome, but cheese is limited, so we recommend reserving your spot. See you Saturday.

Parker is back to give us a report on the vineyard side “Harvest is the time of the year where us in the vineyard finally get to see what all the hard work has brought us and with very little grapes on the vines we were defiantly discouraged early in the season. Now that we have started picking grapes, we are very happy with the quality of fruit that we still have hanging on the vines and are excited to see the quality of w**e made by the production team!”

Stay tuned for more vineyard updates as the harvest continues!

We’re firm believers that what grows together, goes together - especially when it comes to local w**e and good company. Every fourth Thursday, we shine a light on local flavor through thoughtful pairings and community collaboration.

This October we’re pairing handmade pierogis from Punk ‘N Peasant with our estate-grown Maryland w**e!

Punk ’N Peasant Pierogi offers authentic, handmade pierogi with flavors ranging from traditional to creative to downright delicious desserts. Every pierogi is made from scratch, so there’s truly a flavor for everyone!

Come sip, savor, and discover how these delicious local bites pair with our estate-grown w**es. Because around here, when local food is excellent, it deserves a great glass of w**e!

Bring your appetite and your love of w**e—we’ll see you for Locavore Night! https://simpletheoryw**es.com/product/locavore-night-with-punk-n-peasant

A chill in the air has finally begun to arrive, and this changing of the seasons brings new flavors to our home kitchens - roasted meats and veggies, spiced fruit, and the warmth of a fall soup. Here’s our suggestions on a few fall w**e shifts as well:

– Exchange crisp patio whites for mid-bodied reds: These aren’t reds that leave your mouth bone dry after a sip, but softer reds, those that pair well with deeply roasted root veggies and heavier meats like a slow cooker pot roast. We recommend the 2023 Saperavi or 2022 Petit Verdot (

In a year with less fruit, the brightness of our rosé day brought warmth to the cellar. Gently hand-picked and whole cluster pressed, this Chambourcin turned out stunningly. Each press cycle is defined by a set pressure (in bars) and will become more extracted and darker in color with each increase. While typical press cycles reach 2.0 bars, we halted our cycles at 0.8 bar to give our 2026 rosé the beautiful pink we are looking for.

The last of the 2024 Rosé is almost gone (stop into the Lounge this week to grab it) - and look for our 2026 Rosé to be released next spring!

Melissa shares a quick look inside the cellar as we process this year’s harvest:

“In w**e, we are always prioritizing a balance between quality (smaller, more flavorful berries), and quantity to ensure there is enough w**e to go around. Needless to say, we prefer no rain from June to November.

But the rain’s impact this year is different. Due to the freeze in April, our vines sustained significant damage, and we have almost no crop. Instead of worrying about rot, disease, and flavor dilution, we saw our crop barren vineyard thrive as the plants rebounded growing strong and resilient leaves and canopies, showing us that they are ready for a fruitful harvest next year.”

Read the full story on our blog to learn more about what’s been going on in the vineyards and in production, as we navigate the aftereffects of the April freeze.
