- **Event Name**: Ox-Eye Wine Tasting - February AWS Meeting
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 28 Feb, 2026 at 04:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Ox-Eye Tasting Room will graciously host our meeting with a wine tasting with none other than Susan, Kiers, Owner in the historic building once known as a "scale house" for the nearby railroad. 

In 1996, budding vinters John and Susan Kiers purchased a 100-acre farm in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley for the purpose of growing wine grapes. After selling their grapes to area wineries for over a decade, the Kiers family built their own facility in 2010 and named it after the common daisy that covers their land. They now bottle 100% Estate wines from fruit grown on their farm. In order to make their wine tasting experience more accessible to visitors, the Kiers chose to locate their tasting room in downtown Staunton, a city that embodies the Shenandoah Valley's special mix of farm-to-table culture and historic charm. 

Completing apprenticeships in France and Oregon, their daughter Harriet now works beside her father in the winery, carrying the dream into the next generation.

We strive to be as transparent as possible about our venue's limitations. Please note that the meeting space is located on the 2nd floor and is only accessible by stairs. Unfortunately, there is no elevator or ramp available at this venue. If you have specific questions about the layout or require other accommodations, please contact centralshenvalleyaws@gmail.com.

Food selection will be limited. Ox-Eye offers pre-packaged meats, cheeses, and crackers. You are welcome to bring a picnic basket. While our members do love to share, because of the nature of this meeting, we do ask that you not bring any outside wine bottles to this tasting.
