Out of all the wineries we went to around Virginia, Fleetwood Farm Winery was my favorite. With its bold reds, beautiful grounds and laidback staff, I can see why my parents are wine members here.
We visited Fleetwood Farm Winery on a Saturday night and the place was busy! There were many patrons here, but because of how spacious the grounds are, everyone was able to safely social-distance. The main building where you go for wine tasting has a large indoor area, that reminds you of a spacious living room with a huge fireplace in the center of the room. There were tables and chairs spread throughout, including on the outdoor deck.
What I really liked about Fleetwood compared to other wineries was how accommodating the staff were here. I was surprised when the staff offered us to try the different wines before we got a glass, which has not been the case at every other winery we visited. This was appreciated, as you don't want to end up getting a glass or bottle of something you don't like! I was able to try the different reds they had, which some of them were bordeaux-style blends, my favorite.
In addition to the main tasting room, there were different buildings on the grounds, as you can tell many private events occur at Fleetwood, including weddings. They also had a food truck the night we visited, which rotates out. This was a great winery where we ended up staying until closing, like the many other patrons here.
