Artisanal estate wines from Loudoun County, Virginia.
The winemaking program at Tranquility Farm is led by our vintner, Anita Tanamala.
The current range is drawn from the Purcellville estate block — eight acres planted from 2007. Blaufränkisch, Zweigelt, Pinot Gris, and the Hail Medley field blend. Estate fruit, made in the cellar on the grounds, poured in the tasting room above the vineyard they came from.
The program is built on a specific foundation: clone selection. Every varietal planted across our Loudoun County vineyards carries multiple clones — chosen for what they give at different harvest moments, what they express in the cellar, and how they sit in the final wine. Clone selection is not a detail. It is the decision that determines the character of every bottle this estate makes.
The Bluemont block — thirty-three acres on Anita's own land in Loudoun County — carries the varietals the program is building toward. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Grüner Veltliner. First harvest expected in 2026.
Sébastien Marquet leads the winemaking. He brings in specialists for specific aspects depending on the wine — the method, the varietal, the vintage. The expertise is matched to the work.
"A finish that outlasts the conversation that started it."
Otium currently draws from the estate vineyard at Tranquility Farm — eight acres first planted in 2007 and revitalized in 2022. Blaufränkisch, Grüner Veltliner, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Dornfelder, Domina, and Zweigelt. These are the vines visible from the tasting room.
The Bluemont block brings a different scale to the program. Over thirty-three acres planted, with varietals and clones selected around specific winemaking goals. The vines have been in the ground since 2022 and developing since. First harvest from our Loudoun County vineyards is expected in 2026 — at which point the Otium Signature Red Blend moves to fully estate-grown fruit. Sustainable farming practices are a priority across both sites as the vineyards mature.
The vineyards are what the current chapter is built on. The weddings, the retreats, the stays — they sustain the farming. The farming is the point.
The Otium range draws from estate-owned vineyards in Virginia and is released when the winemaking team is ready — not when the calendar demands it. Availability varies by vintage and allocation.
In July 2023, a hailstorm moved through the vineyard at the worst possible moment — the white varietals were thriving, the vintage promising. The storm took most of it. What survived was too little to harvest separately.
Our vintner refused to walk away from a vineyard that had worked that hard. Working with the winemaking team, she gathered what remained — Grüner Veltliner, Chardonnay, and Pinot Gris — and co-fermented them together as a single field blend. No formula. No precedent.
The result was immediate. Crisp acidity, a green pepper spine from the Grüner, stone fruit lift from the Pinot Gris, texture from the Chardonnay. The result — a co-fermented field blend that has become one of the most distinctive wines from this estate.
"A wine born from a storm — and all the better for it."
Ripe and toasty — stone fruit, peach, and apricot. Aged in stainless steel to preserve natural complexity rather than add oak character. Rich texture, clean finish.
Crisp and lively — apple, peach, citrus, and a signature hint of white pepper. Light-bodied with floral and herbal notes. The grape the estate is best known for in Loudoun County.
Pear, apple, and melon on the nose, leading to a creamy mineral finish. Medium-bodied. Germanic winemaking on Loudoun County soil, expressed with restraint.
Tropical fruit and citrus zest on the nose. Crisp acidity balanced with a luscious, lingering finish. Limited production.
The Draksha name launched alongside Otium to introduce the estate's two wine labels together. While Draksha sparkling wines continue as the estate's sparkling program, this still red was always conceived as a single introductory vintage — a first statement about what this estate's red wines could become.
Medium-bodied, ruby in the glass, with silky tannins and a savory, spiced palate. Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot co-fermented as one. Available now while stock lasts. This vintage will not be repeated under this name.
What comes next ↓
When we planted Cabernet Sauvignon on this property in 2022, we were building toward something specific: a red blend made entirely from estate fruit, rooted in these soils, every vintage. The vines needed time. We waited.
The 2025 harvest will be the first. Cabernet Sauvignon leads the blend — we are particularly encouraged by the performance of clone 191/33 on our specific soils, and what it promises for the character of this wine over time. Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Merlot complete it.
Aging in Sequin Moreau oak, fire bent, medium toast. The Tranquility Signature Red Blend will be made every vintage from this point forward. This is the wine the estate has been working toward.
Dense, ripe, and built to age — dark fruit and berry aromas with subtle mocha and toast from 30 months in small French oak. Benefits from decanting.
Dark ripe cherries and dark berries, with a spiced core and balanced acidity. Aged 24 months in Hungarian Oak. Savory, earthy complexity. Two consecutive vintages available.
Full-bodied — soft, round tannins with layers of plum, blackberry, and dark cherry, accented with brown spice and chocolate. Extended aging from the estate's finest blocks.
Dark cherry and dark chocolate on the nose. Medium to full-bodied with lively tannins. Domina is rare in Virginia — Otium's expression leans into natural intensity without losing freshness.
Vibrant with fresh acidity, medium body, and smooth tannins. Ruby red with a velvety, long finish. An Austrian variety rarely seen in Virginia — here it has found a home that suits it.
The Sébastien Marquet wines carried here are his own expressions — made from different clones of Pinot Noir than our Loudoun County edition, from the same Pacific Northwest region our team works with. We carry them because the collaboration between this estate and the Wine Consulting Firm runs across everything we make — and because understanding how the same varietal expresses differently across clone and site is exactly the study this program is built on. Our guests are invited into that work.
Ruby-red with ripe red fruit and cherry aromas. Full palate, long finish. Fruit sourced from the Pacific Northwest and produced by our winemaking team. Available at the winery while stock lasts.
Floral aromas with red fruit and a touch of pear. Smooth texture, an invigorating mid-palate, and a long lingering finish with a touch of acidity. Pairs well with duck, lamb, rockfish, hummus, and grilled vegetables. Fruit sourced from the Pacific Northwest.
Ruby-red with ripe red fruit and cherry on the nose, leading to a layered, precise palate. Made by Sébastien Marquet in Oregon's Willamette Valley — his home region, and where his craft is most fully expressed. His wine, offered here on its own terms.
sebastienmarquet.com →The estate winery sits within the Tranquility Farm grounds — both the Draksha sparkling wines and Otium artisanal wines are poured here, side by side, on the same estate that produces them. Open by reservation to wine club members, with general reservations opening as renovation completes.
Designed around a single idea — that the best way to understand a wine is to see where it comes from, how it is made, and where it has been, all at once.
Tranquility Farm's production is limited by design. The wines are an expression of Loudoun County — never in more quantity than the land and the craft will honestly allow.
The Estate Club ensures that those most invested in these wines are the first to receive them and the last to run out. Three memberships, each a different depth of relationship with the wine.
Three memberships. Each one a different depth of relationship with the wine — from the cellar, across the estate, to the barrel it came from.
