Barboursville Vineyards

Overall this was a very enjoyable vineyard. Perfect weather with an amazing veranda that looks into the onsite ruins and has clear views of the mountains. There was a good selection of wines, so I chose to go with the 6 taste sampler approx $30. After trying the wines I bought a bottle and enjoyed a cheese plate, which is always enjoyable.

Very good wine! Great winery, with several levels of options for tasting rooms (outside picnic tables, bar, sit down w robust tasting food menu, and a restaurant). Beautiful location with walking trails and historic ruins of first governor’s mansion.

Beautiful quiet setting with Gold Star wine selections and great food. Amazing views and quiet atmosphere with indoor, outdoor, and picnic seating. Love this winery!!! First time patrons and will be regulars here for sure.

My fiancé and I visited this beautiful vineyard on a whim while traveling from VA to NC, and it turned out to be the best decision ever! Our experience was wonderful, their wines were delicious and the employees were exceptionally pleasant and friendly. If you're in the area, I highly recommend checking it out!

$22 dollars for this pasta is all I’ll say and not exactly welcoming customer service. There’s a lot of wineries around, I’d take a look at the others respectfully and personally.

Stunning. Beautiful. Hospitality First Unwine, have a glass, and enjoy natures beauty. I had the sliders and some incredible wines, my favorites are the Vermentino and the Brut Rose. Amazing servers also made this visit delightful.

We visited in September and all of the wildflowers were in bloom. We sat on the porch, which was kind of cool and so one of the hostess brought out some blankets for me to wrap up in. The view is beautiful. We got the octagon flight, which was delicious and the Chefs special appetizer which was a really delicious eggplant concoction on some hard crackers. We really enjoyed our visit and will definitely return. They have vegan options available on the menu, which I have not tried, but I do appreciate them adding a vegan option as well. I would highly recommend visiting if you were in this area.

Gorgeous location, good wines… A little uppity with high prices, but worth the try. The staff was very nice and the wines were pretty good; however, I do not think the tastings for $50 or $90 are generous for people trying to come by and taste Wines. $30 tasting provides a decent variety to try though. One thing I did not like, was at the staff did not walk through any information on the individual wine , introduce them to you. Regardless, a beautiful location to drink some wine over a gorgeous Vineyard.

WOW! I've been wanting to come to this winery for years and finally made it out here! It was a long drive, but well worth it. I've tasted their wines at many wine festivals years ago and always bought bottles of the Phileo (dessert wine). Unfortunately, they don't sell this particular wine in stores in Northern Virginia (although they do sell other wines)...which Is why I needed to make my way down here. As soon as I walked in, the lovely staff were there to greet, even while putting up Christmas decoration. There were different places to enjoy their wine--the tasting room, Library 1821, Palladio restuarant, outside (umbrellas available at each table), the patio. Tasting room and Library 1821 are exquisite and cozy rooms, beautifully decorated with tables ready for seating. I didn't peek into the restaurant, but I did enjoy a bottle outside in the windy cold weather and wandered into the Library 1821 for a tasting in front of the warm fireplace. The tasting included 6 wines of our choice, some of which were older selections of their wines. The pour itself wasn't much considering it was $30/person...probably better off just buying a couple bottles. It was an experience though. I ended up buying the Viogner and Phileo--both of which I've tasted and enjoyed in the past. They allow outside food to be consumed at the outdoor seating area. I called ahead of time to confirm before bringing my food. Otherwise they do have the restuarant or the regular winery foods for sale. There is lodging available for a hefty rate, but we opted to stay at a nearby hotel. I'm not sure exactly what is included, but details are provided on their site. Plenty of parking is available. I uploaded a lot of pictures just to capture my experience here as it was so far and I'm not sure if/when I'll return. I visited on a Thursday morning, so there was hardly anyone there. Would I return? Absolutely if/when I have time to come back to this area!

Exceptional winery! Wonderful service, everyone is so very kind!! We did the 12 sample tasting room. We could tell the first man to help us with the whites had been there some time, and was very knowledgeable! The lady that helped us with the reds seemed to be new, but again, everyone was so kind, we didn't care! We then popped over to have a bottle of wine, focaccia, and charcuterie, while enjoying the spectacular views! Cannot rave about this one enough; we will 100% make the drive from DC to C'Ville just to come here again. We bought several bottles of the Sangiovese, Cab Sauv, and Cab Franc Reserve. THANK YOU for the wonderful day! We both loved: Prosecco DOC, Vermintino Reserve 2022, Sauv Blanc Reserve 2022, Sangiovese Toscana 2020, Cab Franc Reserve 2022, Cab Sauv Reserve 2021 (as our absolute favorite!) Additional wines I loved: Viognier Reserve 2023 Additional wines husband loved: Allegrante Rosé 2023, Nebbiolo Reserve 2020

Tenth stop on our wine tasting weekend: Saturday 4:45pm. Barboursville is one of our staples on wine tasting trips to C'Ville. Luca, the winemaker, is one of the godfathers of VA winemaking. He makes some damn fine wines for decent prices ($17-40), many around $20-25. Their Chardonnay and Barbera are standouts for me. Oh, and they took out their enomatic wine machines and went back to live wine pourers. That was a welcome improvement. The current wine tasting is 12 wines for $20, $25 with the glass. We will keep coming back. We usually take advantage of the discount for multi-bottle purchases (see photos).

Founded in 1976 by Gianni Zonin, an Italian winemaker, Barboursville Vineyards is located on a historic estate that dates back to the 18th century. The property includes the ruins of an 1821 mansion designed by Thomas Jefferson for Governor James Barbour, which adds to the vineyard's unique charm. Barboursville Vineyards has been producing their Bordeaux-style, Octagon, for over 30 years now. We were lucky enough to try their 1998 Cabernet Sauvignon (Governor's Cup Winner) and 2008 Octagon.

I stopped in yesterday to try some wine and was really disappointed by the reception I received. The first woman I spoke to came across a bit snooty and impatient once she learned I wasn't interested in the guided fixed tasting. She directed me to the library, where I could select wines I'd like to taste. I was seated and given a wine menu, and when I asked the server about the wines, she replied that all the tasting notes were on the menu. When I try wines, I like to discuss my flavor palette and get suggestions, but that is not how things appear to be done at this winery. As the tasting price was much more expensive than other vineyards, I decided to leave without trying anything.

It was definitely beautiful and classy. For me, it was a bit stuffy and definitely expensive. I enjoyed it but I don't need to go back. I know wine seems to get more expensive the further South in the US we go so I'm kind of spoiled in Pennsylvania but I was really looking forward to the Octagon wine but it was a bit underwhelming. My friend, who typically only likes sweet wine, did throughly enjoy the Cabernet Sauvignon. So I would personally give it 3 and a half stars but I'll grant 4 stars would be warranted for others.

When you think that just 40 years ago Virginia wines were virtually nonexistent 'yuck' wines, Barboursville Vineyards came along (1976ish) and changed VA wine culture drastically and has bettered VA wines. Nice landscape with plenty of Vines to see. For east coast wines, perhaps the best dry red wines you can find. We flighted the reds and really enjoyed njoyed them all. Depth, long finish, fruity, there's a reason the Monticello AVA is ranked the best up and coming AVA. The restaurant you'll need reservations for, the library (wine and a bit of kitchen creations) is open but gets crowded. There's an outdoor area that will have what you want too. Go and visit. It's a must for the wine lover in you.

Beautiful venue, expensive award winning wines, friendly staff, chef premium dining. A great Day to go for a special day/night out. Not a winery we would find ourselves at in a regular given weekend or weekday. Flights are $45-75, bottles $70-220, glass $19-55

Great venue that offers 12 wines in a flight that is guaranteed to satisfy everyone in the group. We liked the Chardonnay best. Very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Staff was smiley and accommodating. Also dogs are welcome inside! Fun time. We will be back.

Well year after year tells the story. The wines are some of the best in Virginia. What can I say about the library section. The ladies always take awesome care of us. Some of my favorite wines are Nebbiolo, Petit Verdot and Cab Francs.

The food was excellent. The views and ambience are spectacular. The staff in the library was top notch. The wine--yum!

We really enjoyed our time here and the atmosphere, food, wine and scenery was perfect for a weekend in Virginia. Plenty of parking close to the venue and we were sat immediately on a Friday afternoon. We started with the Vertical red wine flight which is 4 reds followed by a glass of our favorite, #16. While enjoying our wine, we ordered the charcuterie board with our favorites being the raspberry and blueberry jelly and goat cheese, sliders and bolognese pasta. Overall, the food is good but portions are small. The atmosphere takes you to Italy and their attention to detail to every nook and cranny was obvious. I really liked the vibe of the place and service was on point. We stayed for a couple hours and really enjoyed ourselves! I'd recommend it and would definitely come back!

Arguably one of the best wineries if not the best in the state, Barboursville is nationally recognized for fantastic wine. Just as important in my mind is the fact that it is also accessible. This isn't a vineyard where every single bottle is $100 or more, this is somewhere with wine for everyone in addition to their specialties. The venue is exceedingly pleasant, and very comfortable, with different levels of formality (and expense) for different tastes. I do miss the pre-COVID tasting room, which was more interactive and sociable, but I understand the adjustments and due respect the installment of the wine dispensers. I'd like to recommend a specific wine, but I can't really because they're all pretty solid. If you do want to splurge though, the octagon and the goodlowe mountain are absolutely worth it, and I highly recommend getting a bottle of the Phileo to take home for dessert. It's a light, not overly sweet wine with decent complexity, and I say this is someone who really doesn't like sweet wine at all. The address picnic areas are also delightful, and I am going to reinstate the practice of going for my birthday every year.

Tony and I went to the Barboursville Vineyard to see the Plantation Ruins of the home belonging to Governor James Barbour. The vineyard is extremely lovely. They also sale cheese crackers and meats. There was also chocolates and a few souvenirs. Definitely recommend and will go back if in the area. Free to enjoy the Ruins.

Had a lovely afternoon at Barboursville. Started out by taking a brief look at the ruins, which were interesting. We opted to do the standing tasting as opposed to the library tasting as we wanted a slightly more casual experience. The tasting was self serve with little machines so you could create your own flight of 6. There was also a pamphlet with a QR code with videos that described the wines. It was definitely non-traditional but for post-Covid tastings I am happy there is still information available about the wines. There were quite a few staff members around the tasting room and several were enthusiastic to tell us about the wines. Nice fire place on the middle of the room, and we walked through the wine cellar. We really enjoyed the reds. Next time we might even try the more elevated Library tastings.

We are returning patron's of Barboursville Vineyards. We absolutely love the beautifully decorated 1804 Inn which serves a delicious breakfast and provides a daily bottle of estate wine and an hors d'oeuvres tray. Palladio restaurant in the winery is a gourmet experience not to be missed. Reservations should be made in advance as people travel from all around to dine there. The casual luncheon cafe is also excellent. The gift shop staff as well as those in the Inn, winery, and restaurant are all professional and accommodating. Luca, the general manager, was kind enough to sign our book featuring the history of the vineyard and give us a private and informative tour plus a special bottle of after dinner liqueur. We look forward to our next visit, especially the New Year's celebration. Be sure to sample the wines as they are all excellent.

What an amazing place. Barboursville Vineyard has something special going on in central Virginia. We didn't know what to expect, but it's for sure a keeper for future returns or if you are visiting the area check it out. They have 2 tasting rooms, one they serve you and it's a little more expenses, they also have packages, but 16 of their own wines to choose from. In 2 beautiful separate settings. They have numerous whites, reds and dessert wines to choose from. All vineyards are from the area and they even store some of the wine on site, visit the Oak Room to see just a hint of what they store. At the moment due to COVID there are no tours. There is a store on site with some quality wine products and cutting boards even some vineyard merch. The restaurant on site has amazing reviews in some top publications like 'Southern Living', it sound amazing and would be a great place to wine and dine for a pretty penny. There are places to sit outside, picnic tables and amazing views of the valley and vineyards, it's a stunning place, it very much reminded us of the rolling hills of England. There is a ruin of Governor James Barbour's mansion that was built in 1814 by Thomas Jefferson an Inn and cottages that scream anniversary weekend, they look simply stunning and delightful. Finally if you have kids bring them, we have 3 boys 8,5,3 and the ground are so massive they ran everywhere. The massive bushes by the ruins are perfect for an epic game of hide and seek. They absolutely loved it. Enjoy this special place, it's a must do when in the area.

Great views, good wine (try their Pinto Grigio) and service. The property is beautiful. Make sure you check out the mansion

Very disappointing. What started as a charming drive through beautiful grapevines and oak trees quickly became void of any charm whatsoever. For starters, the tasting was completely self-guided. When you pay for a wine tasting experience, you expect a professional to guide you through the various wines. What to expect taste wise, aromas you may notice, explanations of the harvesting process, etc. Here, they gave us a card, pointed us to the automatic pouring machines, and the only guidance we received was learning how to insert our Dave & Bustersesque plastic card into the machines to receive a measured-to-the-milliliter pour. You had to scan a QR code to get even the smallest description of what flavors to expect. The handouts (sitting next to the self-service pouring machines) only said basic things like, "intense bright flavors!" and "great with seafood!" Prior to Covid, this place had actual people actually describing how the wine actually tasted. They had tours to show you their process. They had charm. You know, all the things you EXPECT at a nice vineyard outing. This was lacking absolutely all of it, and when asked about the tours... "oh, we don't do that anymore". That basically sums it up. Disappointment, and all the charm of a grocery store self checkout lane.

loved everything about my experience at the winery except the restaurant was closed and you need a little food to recover from the wine tasting. the staff was so amazing and helpful. they have a wonderful selections of self care items locally made dont forge to swing by the barrel room and the ruins. the views are breathTaking

Barboursville remains one of my favorite wineries in the area. The wines are great, the views are spectacular, and for the first time I can comment on the restaurant after a recent trip! There are lots of self guided tasting options. I suggest making a reservation in the library if you are only interested in a tasting. However, if you are looking for dinner the restaurant Palladio is excellent. We had great food and service. The filet was incredible, as well as the bucatini (but everything we had was great). We will definitely be back!

A fantastic spot! The porch and views are well worth it! The wildflowers and ruins of a Thomas Jefferson creation, not to mention the wines! Tastings are from machines, but they are great! Vince was very friendly and shared about each wine for the glasses we ordered.

This was my second time visiting Barboursville Vineyard in less than a year. This time, we were celebrating my best friend getting married. I was able to make a reservation for our party of three for lunch in the Library of 1821. When we arrived, we were promptly showed to our seat in the Library. The three of us enjoyed a lovely lunch and wine tasting. I ordered a large meat board, while the two ladies each had a lasagna. The food came out within minutes and tasted delicious. Our servers were very sweet and nice, constantly checking on us and helping us take pictures. A historic site, and a popular destination for many where you can find delicious wines and beautiful views. One of our favorite wineries in Virginia, and definitely worth a visit.

We re-visited Barboursville Vineyards over the Labor Day weekend. Our last trip here was nearly eleven years ago. It was fun to see the changes in the winery since that time. Clearly, wine culture and the Monticello AVA have grown in notoriety over the past decade. The grounds are beautiful, including the ruins of a home designed by Thomas Jefferson. There are multiple areas and tasting experiences. The food options have expanded as well. We opted for the self-guided tasting experience which offers six tastes from an HOPV machine. The wines are Italian-influenced in varietal and style. A seated tasting experience is also available. Plan to stay awhile and take your time enjoying the wine and the grounds.

Amazing restaurant and staff! Try the duck. Check their website for monthly events. Specializes in Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Meritage.

Went with 18 people . What fun we had . Chef created for oak menu for us. Food was very good. Loved their wines , we tasted most of their vintage wines . Would definitely go back again.

We came here on our Charlottesville vacation after reading about it online. Man, we are glad we did. First of all, it's stunning. We went during the wildfire smoke coming down from Canada but it was still so beautiful. The wine list is extensive, but we each got our own flight. Our sommelier even let my fiancé get a 7th wine, which was so nice and unexpected. Their rosé, cab franc, and fiano were so good they had to come home with us! Make sure to add this stop- it is beautiful, with friendly staff, and delicious wine and food!

It could not have been a more perfect day. Look at the natural beauty. And the wine was delicious and the cheese plate and meat plate and olives were delish nosh. Then we took a walk trough the gardens and gazed upon the ruins of the old mansion. Wow Wow Wow. It was just a great day.

STUNNING! My gals and I stopped by over the weekend. This place has the most amazing backdrop. The perfect place to split a bottle (or two!) with the people you love. Very reasonably priced. We got a bottle of the sauvignon blanc, it was the kind of refreshing flavor you want on an August afternoon. The process was simple - head in and purchase your drinks and then head out to find a table. You will not tire of the views. Cannot wait to return!

Had a great time at the winery today, tasting several of their wines and having a personal mini tour and a very interesting and amusing conversation with Vince. He knew a lot about wine production and this winery in particular, and had some amusing anecdotes as well.

When I first had Pinot Grigio, it was too sweet. Probably because I picked a cheap bottle from target and simply didn't like it. A friend recommended this place so I swung by and told the staff that I wanted something not too dry and not too sweet. At first when they recommended their best selling Pinot Grigio, I was hesitant. But after a sample, I understood why this was one of the best sellers. Five dollars a glass and it's super easy to drink. I love that I can find it at my local total wine.

We came here for a wine tasting experience and left enchanted by the elegant ambiance, attention of the wait staff, and, of course, the delicious wine and food! We will absolutely go back and you should too.

On our way to our cabin in the mountains we made a pit stop here. There is plenty of parking and the view is rather nice, we came close to sunset and the leaves have already fallen so I can only image the sights a couple of weeks ago. We purchased our chip card to pour our own wines, I was a big fan of the Reds and my girlfriend enjoyed the white wines. I do look forward to coming back for a long stay next time. The staff was super friendly!!

We travelled here from California because we had tasted one of Barboursville Vineyards wines at a Wine Spectator tasting event a few year's ago. The bottle we tasted was called Octagon. Turn the clock ahead a few years and we walk into Barboursville Library tasting Building on a wet Wednesday in Virginia. Christy greeted us warmly. She was very friendly and knowledgeable. She was joined by 2 other ladies. All 3 worked as a well oiled machine hosting many tasting groups during our time there. We enjoyed a vertical library tasting and their 'classic' tasting between my wife and I. We also could order food prepared in their onsite cooking facilities. This was a nice compliment to the wine tasting. We had a tomato and burata salad with a flavorful pesto and a baked Pene pasta dish. Both were very good. The wine was good. Standouts we're their 2016 Cab Franc, their Paxxito dessert wine, their brut rose sparkling wine, and their flagship 2017 Octagon. The experience we had in the Library was memorable. Not as much for the wine but for the staff, service, and southern hospitality that we experienced. I highly recommend the Barboursville Library tasting...spend a little more money and get the true winery tasting experience.

We have been here several times, so this is a combination review. The Palladio restaurant is excellent and really shows off their wines and the veggies, herbs, and meat grown on campus. It's a dressy restaurant. While I don't believe there is a formal "dress code" I have always at least gone in business casual. There is an Inn and cottages. We have stayed at one of the cottages and we highly recommend it as a romantic get away from big city professional life. We are not into all their wines, but can say there is something for everyone. Many will recognize the Octagon red. It's a mix of estate-grown Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. This is the wine that has won some awards and can often be found at Total Wine and Wegmans. It's a truly great red blend and pairs well with any hardy meat dish. Do also check out the Cab Franc and Petit Verdot. For the whites, we recommend the Vermentino Reserve. Native to Liguria, Corsica and Sardinia, I can't recall having this grape from a US vineyard before, but they do it justice. It's nicely dry with good minerality and tinge of citrus. If there is one knock I have on this place it's the tasting room. You have to move around to different spaces for whites and then two different spots for reds. They also let pets in there. I love dogs, but not with a wine tasting. For a superior experience, we recommend doing a tasting in their Library. There you can get their older and best vintages paired with house-baked breads, house-cured charcuterie and excellent local cheeses. This will cost you more, but it is worth the price.

This is a very nice vineyard. The place is very cozy when you walk in and they are setup for self service. You walk in decide what you want grab your glass and make your wine selection. The staff is constantly walking around keeping up with the sanitary measures and can easily give you suggestions on what to try. They have a very nice fireplace too! I would absolutely recommend visiting them.

Great tasting for your money. 20+wines for $10. All made from their grapes but the bruts. Staff is SO friendly and KNOWLEDGEABLE. Recommend the property tour ( free) very informative. Ruins on property designed by Thomas Jefferson. Winery owned by Luca Zonin, family has 10 wineries all over Italy.

Barboursville gets five stars from me mostly for the great location: just perfect for a beautiful afternoon on a spring day in Virginia. Or any time of the year. Their tasting is a bit over the top, there's over 20 wines to taste, (and it's not any more expensive than your typical Cville area tasting)! So if you want to leave the tasting tipsy, they've got you, but I felt like I had to take lecture-grade notes to even keep track of which ones I preferred and why (and it was one of the few tastings where I actually spit some of the wine into the provided jugs, so I wouldn't get too lit before lunch). Most of the sweeter wines I didn't like, but that's because I'm not into sweet wine. When we got to the last group of reds, there were a couple wines I definitely enjoyed, and the Barbera stood out as my favorite of the whole lot. Also, a slight sidenote: you can keep the tasting glass after the tasting, and the wee Barboursville glass is my favorite of all the winery glasses I have collected over the years. Small with a prismed stem, perfect for a nip of sherry or dessert wine after dinner. Unique and cute. After the marathon tasting, my friends and I chose a couple bottles that we could all agree on, and brought them with our packed lunch out onto the beautiful, sunny grounds for a picnic. We picnicked on the lawn a short walk down the lane from the tasting room and it was picturesque, with trees flanking our views on each side, green grass, and even on a day where the tasting room was busy, we had the lawn all to ourselves. The historic, and crumbling, mansion was fun to walk around and had great alcoves for taking some really nice photos of our group. Would love to revisit on another sunny afternoon, bring another picnic, and stay again until the sun starts to set behind the old mansion.

Always a wonderful experience. Beautiful winery. Cheers to a fun time ! Thanks, will return

Wasn't my favorite vineyard I visited during my time in C-ville. It seemed much more corporate and not as welcoming as some of the others. Instead of people pouring a tasting for you, you use these machines that pours it out for you so you kind of need to stay inside (which was kind of dark). The staff near the machines were friendly and answered any questions you had but I like the idea of being outside. Wine was good but nothing to write home about. They didn't have great food options here either. I know there is a fancy sit-down restaurant but we wanted more snack-like items. Very nice views and you can walk to the ruins.

It seems like you can have two very different experiences here. The first is the library which is quiet, more expensive and comes with table service. The second is cheaper and a little odd bc rather than getting the tasting from a person, you basically just go to a wine vending machine to pick your pours. It was fine I guess just a little odd bc people are then on top of each other trying to get their drinks. I can't imagine it being fun when there are more people at the winery. What was nice was we bought a bottle a took it out to their new deck which looks out over the vineyard. It was a good place to get away from the other people and relax. It looks like you could also bring food to this area if you wanted. Wines were pretty good. I would say the barbera reserve was the best of the ones we had.

My girlfriend and I throughly enjoyed our afternoon at Barboursville. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable and friendly, and the wine was top notch. Venue was beautiful as well. Highly recommend!

Everyone in my party of 6 was thoroughly impressed with this vineyard. The setting is beautiful. They have an extensive selection of wines, truly something for everyone, and the service was great. We walked away with a whole case of wine from this stop and didn't do that anywhere else (having visited 9 other wineries). I HIGHLY recommend trying this place. It is phenomenal!

Came here for a tasting in the Discovery Tasting room. Loved the ambiance and the staff were very friendly. It is a unique self service setup where you get to choose 6 wines to taste out of 8 reds and 8 whites (including 2 dessert wines). Definitely doesn't feel rushed and there are some cool decorations and newspaper clippings to read. Went home with a bottle of wine, it was that good!

Wow! Barboursville Vineyard! Picture perfect setting. Such an amazing job incorporating an inviting oasis that instantly displaces the world's issues. Anna did such an amazing job introducing us to the Vineyard offerings. Her relatablility and awesome customer service will bring us back. Carrie, Allison and Wangui were Sooo Cool too! Really enjoyed meeting everyone!! I know I'm forgetting names.... Loved every second! Will be back!

Had a wonderful time here a few weeks ago. My group's attendant, Blair, was super attentive and very enthusiastic about the wines, and ensuring that we had a great experience. The wines speak for themselves. Just the best Virginia has to offer. The flight of 5-6 wines gets you so much great wine for the cost. I look forward to coming back.

Barboursville is a very cool vineyard with a great view! The food was also spectacular - loveddd the charcuterie boards. The thing I was disappointed about though were the wines. I thought they were only okay and their signature octagon wasn't all they cracked it up to be. Our group had a great time and enjoyed lunch but liked wines better at a different vineyard.

Wonderful. Came here by chance. Excellent wine and service. The young blond lady (Elizabeth?) was knowledgeable and welcoming. Will come back.

Awesome wines! Not everything was to our liking but we are also very picky. We did the library 1821 tastings. Our favorites included the Cuve Brut and Phileo dessert wine. For a Virginia winery, this place has some pretty good red wines, too! Definitely get a cheese plate or something because it is a lot of wine! Our server Carey was super friendly!
