The staff were helpful, great entertainment, and a friendly atmosphere! We spent a very lovely day there!

My girlfriend's birthday was today and she loves wineries. Tuesday is terrible day to celebrate at a winery. Nothing is open on Tuesdays. That is nothing except Adam's County. I reserved a tour and our guide, Jordon could not have been more gracious. He carefully explained the process and then took us to a room where we not only sample 6 wines, we learned the intricacies of getting the best out of a glass. I can't wait to go back. Additional note, I called my daughter to invite her and my son in law to meet us some weekend. By coincidence, he proposed to her at this very place. read more

I took my daughter and some friends here for my daughter 21st birthday. We did a full wine tour and tasting. It was amazing. All the wine is so delicious. I would recommend going on the tour. We had a beautiful time. Thanks read more

Have never been to this winery before, and it did not disappoint! The Inside is fairly large we went on a Tuesday during the day so was not busy which was very nice. My boyfriend and I got a sampler, and we got two for $24. All the wines we tried were very good!! The outside looks nice and cozy for the warmer months. I would diffently like to go back. Parking is a breeze and a big enough lot. Inside, they have several counters for wine tasting for those busier days. They also have some cheeses and small snacks and looked like we might be Woodfire pizza in the summer. read more

My wife really loved the last time we came here, so we decided to come again with my brother and his girlfriend. My wife really enjoys their wine, "Tears of Gettysburg". We arrived about 3pm in the afternoon on a Sunday. it was not very busy as expected because of Covid. We parked and walked inside. Based on current PA law and Covid, this time, we could not purchase wine tastings without purchasing a meal. They were creative and offered several options of meat, cheese and pretzels. We picked a few of those options and wine flights for three of us. I am not a fan of wine but they also offer some beers of which I chose one. We took our meat and cheese with the paper plates and utensils they provided to our table and waited for the buzzer to go off for the beverages and pretzels. The locally made sweet beef bologna and the smoked beef sticks were very good. the pretzel bites also hit the spot. My wife ended up purchasing two bottles of the "Tears of Gettysburg" and a double bubble wine bottle wrap to pack them in our suitcase to take home to Nevada. The general manager provided amazing customer service, explaining everything and was a pleasure interact with. We wish we got his name to drop here but we did not. We highly recommend this hidden gem located in the rolling hills west of Gettysburg! read more

Wonderful staff, great wines, especially Apple Pie! Love the live wreath workshop, too! Thank you!

Stopped in on a weekday and was impressed that this was one of the few wineries in the area that was open during the middle of the week in January. We had the tasting room to ourselves and enjoyed three free tastings. If you pay, you can have an additional three tastings. Since our plan was to split a bottle, we stuck with the free tastings and then purchased a bottle of Three Ships to the Wind-a semi sweet red. Most of the wines here had some residual sugars or R.S. So they were a bit sweet, but there were a few with zero R.S. The gentleman helping us with the tastings was super friendly and helpful-to the extent that he wrote out a list of all of the other wineries, breweries and cidreries that he thought would be open that day. Bottom line:Great place for a bottle. There's even an outdoor patio that would be perfect when the weather is nicer. They also have cheese and crackers for sale here. read more

This is an absolutely beautiful property located just a short drive outside of Gettysburg. My wife and mother in law had been there earlier in the summer and this time I tagged along. They have an amazing tasting room where you order your wine, food (which is made outside) and even some local craft beers. The staff is very well versed on the wines and will ask you about your palate and then pair wines with it. I was a huge fan of the dry wines but also found their staple wines like stray cat strut and tears of Gettysburg to be very light and refreshing even on the cool fall day we were there. The curious cat and rebel red were also very nice. As for the food, we were delighted with the pizza and the pretzel that fed four of us as a nice snack between lunch and dinner. There were children there and they have some glass bottled soda options for them, but I'm not really sure why you'd take young children to a winery as there is absolutely nothing for them to do. read more

We have had their wine before but have never been to the actual winery. We absolutely loved it!!! Can't wait to go again. It's a beautiful place. The grounds are gorgeous with all the flowers this time of year. read more

I visited last Sunday and had a great experience! I was immensely greeted by the nicest woman. We purchased the sweet flight and the speciality flight. Amazing! I'm not even a fan of rosé and it was excellent here! All the sweet wines were delicious. I definitely would return and definitely recommend :) read more

An interesting place to go to if you're from the area. It is quite off the beaten path, so some back road driving is required. There is a one way portion of the road entering the winery property so be cautious on your way in. There is a very small parking lot in the front mostly consisting of handicap parking but then there is a larger lot in the back. Gravel and grass parking, but it's a large lot. The are various sitting areas. Under the pavilion there are large tables. There's also tables in the grassy areas that are bolted to the ground so they can't move. There's also an upper patio area near the barn with umbrella tables. Plenty of spaces to park and sit. You can bring your own food to eat, but no outside alcohol. The main barn is where you can order your food and drink. They have a lot of options. I loved the sparkling red wine. They also have wine slushees which are delicious. You go up to the counter and select what you want to drink. You can take those to your table right away. If you order a pizza, very delicious, you bring your receipt to the pizza tent and you'll get a buzzer when it's ready. The service is fast and the quality of drink and food is delicious. Not a lot of food options however. There are indoor bathrooms, two stalls. There is a tasting room inside and a small gift shop. Overall it was a good experience but not great. I think the outside ambiance could be improved. read more

The wine is great the food is good ! The place is relaxing and beautiful to sit and sip !

Here's the thing.... 6 months out of the year (the warmer months) I might give this 4 stars, while 6 months out of the year (the colder months) I might give it two stars. The biggest draw for me to come during the warmer months is the outside terrace area where you can take your glass of wine and order a pizza and make a nice afternoon out of it. The pizza really is excellent. They have plenty of outdoor seating. OTHERWISE, I really don't think I'd ever come here. Their wines are so sweet (really anything over a 1 RS is too sweet for me) so by and large I am not a fan of their wines. When I went they only had 3 dry wines to chose from. If you are one of those wine drinkers (not really wine drinkers in my opinion but hey) that likes sweet juice types of "wine" you would love this place. read more

Great experience at winery in rural Adams County, Pennsylvania. The place was clean. Every employee was friendly and the lady helping us with our wine tasting was great. You could tell she loves wine and she loves her job. One small critique is that they could be a little bit more generous with their wine samples. Not a negative comment--just something they could lean into a little bit more. Oh btw, The TERRACE BISTRO has amazing pizza. We particularly loved the crust. It's all fresh, it's delicious, and our chicken bbq pizza tasted so well with "Traveler"--a dry Chardonnay and Vidal blend. Overall a great experience. There's definitely an authentic country vibe to the place, but it's all good! They don't try to be a winery beyond their means. They know who they are, where they are, and they are good at their craft. read more

This place has it all clean friendly staff and a fairly large menu of wines to choose from. There is lots of land here and the selection of wines was larger than average. You do get a few samples for free but for an extra charge you can add more samples. This is also part of a wine tour. Worth the stop. read more

What a beautiful property! It was an amazing day to sit outside in the shade and enjoy a glass of wine. "Three ships to the wind" a semi-sweet red was perfect to relax with and take in the beauty of the country side with my partner. They serve food as well, or you can bring your own. I will definitely come back ! read more

Had an amazing wine tour this morning! The tour guide was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable it made it a lot of fun! Wish I would have taken pictures but I was distracted with wine great date idea and fantastic wine! read more

Nestled just 8 miles outside of historic Gettysburg lies the Adams County Winery. It's on an old farm, with a huge red barn. Open 7 days a week, they have a decent selection of wine to choose from. We tried a bottle of their "Tears of Gettysburg" which was pretty sweet and listed at 12.00 a bottle. Other flavors range from 11-27 dollars a bottle. One of the cooler things was a map of the USA, where people pinned what city they were visiting from. The Winery has free music on the weekend, while we were there Hot Club Du Jour played. There was plenty of outside seating, with picnic tables, covered tents and a pavilion. There was a really cute butterfly garden that children were playing in. Also operates a downtown location in Gettysburg on 25 Chambersburg Street. read more

A very accessible and inviting winery for lovers of sweet wines, although dry drinkers may find it a bit lacking. If I had to describe Adams County Winery in one word, I would say it's "fun." This is not your snobby, pretentious winery - it's all about having a good time with their (mostly) sweet wines. It's obvious from the ample outdoor seating and the rustic comfortable tasting room. Even coming here during the off season there were still a number of people in the tasting room. Our pourer was very knowledgeable on the wines and allowed me and my girlfriend to split our tastings (3 samples for free, 4-6 samples for $5). If you count the fruit wines (which I didn't taste), the selection is overwhelmingly sweet, with residual sugar levels above 1%. However, there are some dryer options that are pretty good. For the whites, I liked the Chardonnay Appalachian Moon, a dry chardonnay with a slight french oak taste, and the Reisling, which had a hint of sweet (0.4% residual sugar) and fruity undertones. For the reds, the Cabernet Sauvignon and the Turning Point were highlights, each with their own dark fruit and french oak flavors. If I had to pick, I'll give it to the Cabernet Sauvignon, which had a smoother fruitier taste. Overall, I wasn't a huge fan of the wines at Adams County Winery, but I don't begrudge people who love this place. Fans of sweet and fruit wines will be in Nirvana, while dry drinkers will find at least one or two that will satisfy. It's a winery for all palates. read more

Meh. Can't taste wines. You can buy a bottle or a glass, but only if you buy food. They make you wear a mask outside as you pick up your food, even though there are plexiglass dividers. Great outdoor seating options. read more

We met 6 friends for a tour and tasting. Our guide, Dan, was very informative and fun. After our tour and information on the wine making process we went to a tasting room with crackers and cheeses. We tasted 6 wines, 3 white and 3 red. All very tasty! Dan explained every wine and the grapes that were used to make it and foods that it would be good with. read more

My boyfriend and I went there last Tuesday - an off day in this area where everything is closed. To our delight, this winery was open. The staff was super nice and Carolyn was super personable and lots of fun to talk to. The winery also provided cheese and snacks for purchase. We did a wine tasting and walked out with several bottles. I would definitely visit again! read more

A great place to be when it's warm outside. The inside seating areas are not so great but the outdoor area is very impressive. The wines were very good, I liked the dry whites rather than the sweets and reds. Just my liking. Everyone was very friendly. I if you think your lost following GPS/Waze your not, it's in the middle of no where PA. read more

I've been living in the area for over 17 years and only discovered this winery recently! I went on a tour with 8 people, it was about $17 per person. The guide walked us though the process of making the wines- he was very knowledgable and answered all of our questions! This was followed by a wine tasting, which included and abundance of cheese and crackers and a sampling of many of their wines! At the end of the tour, each individual got a free bottle of wine- can't get better than that! After the tour was over our group enjoyed some more wine on their spacious, well kept patio. The area is quiet, peaceful, and beautiful. I can't think of a better way to spend a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. You have to visit Adams county winery if you live in or are visiting the area! read more

Absolutely my favorite local winery in the area. Love their Rusty's Red and Tears of Gettysburg, recently had their Blueberry wine as well and became an instant fan. I love sitting out on their patio and wish some of their events would fall on the weekends I don't work. The staff has always been knowledgable although when busy, which it gets on weekends, they aren't as talkative or trying to do several tastings with different people at once so trying to get their attention is difficult or having that one on one feeling isn't always there. Overall gives you that authentic winery feel in a cozy little country setting. Absolutely perfect! read more

I had a wonderful visit here as they offered us a private wine tasting and the staff was all very friendly! If you love sweet wines this is the place to go! The wines are all very affordable. My favorites are the Stray Cat Sturt, Scrapple, Tears of Gettysburg, Rebel Red, and Entwine'd (a chocolate wine). They also have a blueberry wine but I didn't get a chance to try that since that's an additional tasting fee. They also sell cheese and crackers which we sampled. If you're skiing at Liberty, this is just a short 10 min drive from it. read more

We visited this past Sunday and experienced a pleasant afternoon with live music and fresh made Bistro pizza on their terrace. We enjoyed a bottle of their wine, Rebel Red for the wife and a glass of Tears of Gettysburg for me. They have a nice selection of wines and I think everyone could find something they make to suits their taste buds. We'll be back, for sure! read more

This is defnitely worth a day trip. The winery gives free tours of the operation, and we learned about how the grapes are processed and fermented. Plus we got to taste a bunch of great wines (also free) and took home some memorable. When the weather dries out, we'll be packing a picnic and going back to walk their trails. read more

This is a must stop. An awesome venue. Family and dog friendly. Also has a few selections of beer. Great tasting and our guide Jody was fantastic. We also had a brick oven pizza on the patio. Although wasn't totally impressed with most of the wines or beers there were enough to buy 6 bottles of wine and had beer with our pizza. Would recommend and definitely return. read more

My husband and I came here for the very first time to taste wine, and we have always had a great experience! The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. And they love animals! Rusty's Red is one of our favorite wines names after the coolest winery dog. We love their drink specials, special events, the pizza grill outside on the patio, and the beautiful landscaped garden area. We are big fans! read more

Another great winery in the area! Large place with many good wines and other neat things to tempt the palette and wallet! The coolest wine was "Three Ships to the Wind", a red with a delightful spicy taste. Spicy like BBQ ribs, not like apple cider. read more

Tonight I met Tom of Adams county winery. Very impressive and knowledgable of all types of wine. The dry white he suggested was perfect. It is called, "the Traveller". Good wine, great conversation, and 100 % consumer friendly. Extremely positive experience. Thank you Tom read more

Used to be a favorite but now we won't be able to drink our wine at the farm, but purchase it by the glass. Won't go back... Never ever have I seen a winery that you wouldn't want to hang out at. Sad to see my favorite wine now become something I won't be buying. read more

We visited the downtown location and decided to go see the full winery. It was a few minutes outside of Gettysburg but worth the scenic trip. The staff were nice enough to give us a tour of the winery and let us touch some grapes that had been squeezed. We also tasted lots of wines. I had tried a lot of the sweeter wines downtown so I went for the hardier reds and a few whites and they were all pretty great. We got some Tears of Gettysburg, Devils Den Red, and Scrapple to take home for ourselves and as gifts. I'd like to order some of the dry wines for the holidays. read more

I had the opportunity to visit Adams County Winery many years ago. Getting to come back almost a decade later, I can only say that this winery, much like a great red wine, gets better with age. Many times, fond past experiences are remembered with a more favorable light than how they were. We forget the reality as it was, and only recall the positive aspects. Well, that is not the case with Adams County Winery. Everything that was great then is even greater now. The winery has more wines now than it did previously, but the ones I remember from then are even better now. I definitely have to recommend the Rebel Red. What was a good table wine has blossomed into a much more robust wine that exceeds previous expectations. If you are visiting the Gettysburg area, you must stop in and do a tasting, relax on the deck, and enjoy the beautiful scenery. read more

LOVE this place! We try to visit a few times a year. We buy so much that we are in the "case" club. The owners and employees are super nice and friendly, and Rusty is the perfect greeter :) read more
