"Loudoun County’s family-owned boutique winery, nestled on 50 acres of Virginia countryside, is a quick drive from historic Leesburg. Lost Creek chef Chris Evans dresses dishes with herbs and veggies plucked from on-site gardens he carefully cares for. The decade-plus-old standby offers a $75 pairing of four wines with four courses or reserve a seat in its rustic tasting room or ivy-covered patio to enjoy its full food and wine menu. Upcoming events include lots of seasonal tastings and dinners." - Tierney Plumb, Kalina Newman
