(Wines&Vines) - Like many states east of the Rockies, Virginia has experienced tremendous growth in the number of wineries operating within the state during the past 30 years. In 1980 there were approximately 20 wineries in Virginia, and today the count is 220, according to WinesVinesDATA; additionally, grapegrowing is now recognized as an agricultural growth industry. However not everyone likes the tourism aspect of the wine industry, which draws more visitors, and some counties in Virginia have attempted to use their zoning ordinances to control what wineries can and cannot do with their properties through land-use regulations.
