CIRCA 1892 Background
We love Colonial Beach, Virginia! Colonial Beach became an incorporated town in 1892, hence the
name of our business. It flourished as a popular riverside resort location in the early to mid-20 th
century and is now seeing reinvestment and revival. Colonial Beach, once again, is becoming an
attractive place for people to live, work and play. We believe that the time is right for CIRCA 1892, a
gourmet wine and cheese shop, to flourish in Colonial Beach and the Northern Neck of Virginia.
Our past, present, and future are coming together to create an economic, historic, and culturally
rich community for all our residents and visitors and CIRCA 1892 is excited to be a part of this
evolution.
