A popular Northern Virginia winery is officially on the market. Owners Lisa and Bryce Petty are selling Cana Vineyards & Winery — located at 38600 Little River Tpk. in Middleburg — with a listed price of $9 million.
Cana’s Wine Production
Cana Vineyards & Winery sits on approximately 43 acres, with 8 acres dedicated to wine production. It currently grows petit verdot, cabernet franc, merlot, petit manseng, and Norton grapes. It produces around 3,000 cases of wine per year.
Cana made headlines in 2022 when its 2019 Unité Reserve was named the 2022 Virginia Governor’s Cup winner, making Melanie Natoli the first female winemaker to win the prestigious award. That same year, the vineyard’s 2019 Le Mariage won a gold medal and a place in the Governor’s Case. Since then, Cana has won multiple gold and silver medals in the Virginia’s Governor’s Cup.
Sale Details
The listing includes all property, equipment, and inventory, including Black Oak Café, which opened in 2025 and serves gelato, pizza, and espresso drinks.
Listing agent Simon Reeder of eXp Realty held a private preview of the property last October. When asked why the Pettys decided to sell, Reeder said, “It’s just timing. They’re seven years in, and they have two kids that are college age, so they’re staring at the empty nest side of things. The winery is in a beautiful place to kind of hand it off to someone that’s excited about the opportunity.”
