HEARTS DELIGHT Q&A
Q: What is something you are passionate about outside of work?
A: We are fortunate that winemaking IS our passion outside of work. We are a husband and wife team who have been DC lobbyists for decades. As you can imagine, that requires a lot of wine to stay sane. Ten years ago, our wine maker, Robert Foley, encouraged us to get into the wine business and we have never looked back.

Saturday, May 10, 2025 – Grand Tasting Reception
The proprietors of Herson Family Vineyards are a husband and wife team of Washington, D.C. lobbyists – one is a Democrat and the other is a Republican. The wines are named as odes to their profession. The Chardonnay is named Influence, the Cabernet Sauvignon is named Persuasion, and the Merlot is called Access. In an era where big name Napa Valley winemakers are taking on dozens of projects at a time, the Herson Family is fortunate to have one of Napa’s top winemakers who refuses to take on more than a handful of projects so he can give them his full and undivided attention and care.
