For Lake Anna locals and weekend visitors alike, Labor Day Weekend marks the transition from high-energy lake days to the golden, relaxed pace of early autumn. There is no better way to kick off this holiday weekend than by taking a short, scenic drive just south of the water into the rolling hills of Louisa County. Fifty-Third Winery and Vineyard, a beloved staple of our local wine trail, is hosting the ultimate afternoon retreat. Combining estate-grown Virginia wines, live music, and unbeatable holiday sales, it is the perfect spot to unwind and toast to the end of summer.
The highlight of the afternoon is the live acoustic performance by David Kulund on Fifty-Third's expansive outdoor pavilion. From 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM, Kulund will set the mood with soulful, classic acoustic tunes that pair beautifully with a crisp glass of wine. The winery’s pavilion offers panoramic views of the lush vineyards, allowing you to soak in the late-summer breeze while enjoying a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere.
In addition to the stellar music, wine lovers can take advantage of exclusive holiday bottle discounts. Whether you are looking to restock your lake house cellar, grab a few bottles of award-winning Viognier for your evening holiday barbecue, or find the perfect red for the upcoming fall season, this sale is the prime opportunity to stock up on premium local vintages. Pair your wine selection with some of their curated light bites, or feel free to bring your own picnic to enjoy on the beautiful lawns.
