Zephaniah Farm Vineyard

My husband & I had a very nice visit to this small, family owned winery. I had found it but we were planning on going to nearing Stone Tower (where we’ve been before) because they had more food options. However, traffic turning into ST seemed busy so we opted to go here instead and I’m very happy we did! It was very scenic and relaxing, the staff were kind and knowledgeable, and we really enjoyed the rose. I would have liked more food options, especially vegetarian, but the snack box was sufficient and we got food afterward. Overall, it was a very nice afternoon spent on their porch sipping wine.

Nestled in the heart of Virginia's wine country, Zephaniah Farm Vineyard offers an extraordinary wine tasting experience that transcends the ordinary. This family-owned estate seamlessly blends historical charm with exceptional hospitality, creating an unforgettable destination for wine enthusiasts and history buffs alike. The highlight of our visit was the remarkably personal touch provided by our host, who went above and beyond by offering an intimate tour of the property's historical home. As you walk through the carefully preserved rooms, you can feel the rich tapestry of family history woven into every corner. The stories passed down through generations add a unique dimension to the wine-tasting experience, making each sip more meaningful. The vineyard's grounds are nothing short of spectacular. Rolling hills dotted with meticulously maintained vines create a picturesque landscape that's particularly enchanting during sunset, when the golden light bathes the entire property in a warm glow. The outdoor seating areas are thoughtfully positioned to take advantage of these stunning views, making it an ideal spot for both casual tastings and special occasions. Each vintage we tried, tells its own story, carefully crafted to reflect both the heritage of the land and modern winemaking expertise. The tasting experience is educational yet approachable, perfect for both novices and experienced wine connoisseurs. What truly sets Zephaniah apart is its authenticity. Unlike some more commercialized vineyards, this feels like stepping into someone's beloved home – because it is. The historical significance of the property, combined with the family's evident passion for winemaking, creates an atmosphere that's both sophisticated and warmly welcoming.

A very beautiful setting . The wines on the tasting menu were u quite blends of different wines. The owners are very accommodating. We enjoyed our experience.

We went there on a Sunday (11:30am). Had the wine tasting, where the staff explained the history of the place and the wines that were being served. Also, we had a tour with Bill, the owner. Amazing experience; he is very passionate and knowledgeable about the history of the place. Wine was exquisite, our group’s favorite were Friendship and Adeline. My group had a different experience and we totally LOVED it!

We stopped in here for a tasting and tour. The wines were phenomenal. Loved pretty much everything we tried. We got a tour of the cellars and house from Bill (one of the owners) and he was so knowledgeable and a great story teller. We will definitely return!

The staff here is always SO lovely and welcoming! Each time we have been here we’ve found a new wine that we want to take home, usually thanks to the recommendation and guidance of whoever is helping us. Sitting on the back deck is always a lovely experience and the makes for the perfect quiet afternoon with friends or family! Highly recommend for anyone looking for great wine and a lowkey afternoon in a beautiful setting.

The only reason for a one star review is a staff member, Kim. We had the best time, however, she single-handedly dropped a 5 star review to a one star. She’s rude and seems like an unhappy person. I feel bad for her, but she shouldn’t be in the service industry. The wine was appreciated and the rest of the staff was amazing. Hopefully, others don’t encounter her so they’ll enjoy a better experience than my friends and I had.
