    Wow. Where do I even beginning. Two of my girlfriends and I visited Burnt Hill in celebration of a birthday. We were so lucky to have Scott as our staff member. He was extremely personable, warm, and knowledgeable about the food and wines available. He provided great insights and was very attentive. We had the Roasted Tomato Focaccia Pizza. It was amazing! Very filling a full of flavor! We also had the Romesco Roasted Carrots and The Sister Farms Wine tasting. I had to try the honey sesame cortado and I'm so glad I did. I was blown away immediately by the honey, sesame, and espresso flavor combination. Can't get over how good that cortado was! This winery is extremely aesthetically pleasing and the ambiance is ideal for great photos. I can't wait to return again soon! Soooo good!

    I went with a group of friends yesterday and had a wonderful afternoon. Our staff member Joe was very nice and well educated on the wine, food, and the farm. When you come in you are greeted with a welcome glass of the winery's champagne. Then you are escorted inside to your table. For drinks the options are wine by the glass, a wine flight, and cocktails. My party got wine flights and ordered to share pizza, charcuterie board, and a dessert board. What I loved about the food is everything is fresh and they explained that as a regenerative farm they use for Instance their own grain to make the focaccia used in our pizza. I can't wait to return when the weather is warmer.

    It's so gorgeous I don't think my clips really do it justice. There are wild sheep there too, which is cool! The staff is great here. We arrived early and they started us off with their Blanc de Blancs and I'm pretty sure they refilled my glass another two times before we started the tasting. Two staff members conducted our tasting: Veronica and Brian and they were very kind and knowledgeable about the wines. I am not a red wine drinker (especially if it's not sweet) but wow I found 3 red wines I liked here, so I will have to come back and buy them. The tasting was with their 2021 EARTHSONG (93% PINOT NOIR, 7% CABERNET FRANC), 2021 REGENT (SINGLE BARREL SELECTION), and 2021 TERRAFIRMA (54% MERLOT, 27% CABERNET SAUVIGNON, 14% CABERNET FRANC, 5% TANNAT). I also got to sample their collab wines with Old Westminster. I purchased the Nectar one (a sweeter wine). But seriously I need to come back and buy the Blanc de Blancs too (light and crispy but not too dry). The tasting also came with sourdough bread and two spreads (roasted heirloom tomato with garden basil and sesame brown butter with burnt hill honey). The snacks that also came with the tasting were acorn squash soup, honeycrisp apple fennel salad, peanuts, and olives. Everything was really good and fresh but these are truly snacks and light. I usually don't like fruit in my salad, but the salad was excellent!!! The more relaxed casual tasting experience that starts in December will have pizza as an option to purchase. Just a note: the $26 to secure your experience per person does not go towards your final bill. Also, there are no indoor bathrooms. They have nice trailer bathrooms outdoors. They are not like porta potty's. They are clean, smell good, and are spacious. I believe next year (or a little later) they will be adding cabins for people to be able to stay in, which I love and cannot wait to see!

    My husband and I had a wonderful time at Burnt Hill yesterday! It's honestly the perfect date spot. The views are beautiful, the food is great, the service is spot on, and the wines are lovely. We did the estate tasting and had three hours to enjoy ourselves. We didn't use the whole three hours but it was nice not feeling rushed. All of the reds are on the lighter-medium bodied end of the spectrum, which isn't my personal preference, but they were all very nice and balanced. The bread was to die for, as was the soup. I almost ordered more soup but held off. The apple salad was also great. One of my favorite parts of the afternoon was watching the sheep casually stroll by. I love how Burnt Hill focuses on sustainably and using all of their resources. How cool is it that they have pigs, sheep, bees and fruit all on the premise? If you have a chance to go, do it!

    I visited Burnt Hill about a year ago for a wine festival event, and it was beautiful then, but even more beautiful now. The winery has such an intimate feel to it, which made the experience even better. The food and wine were both amazing. I wish I could remember the staff's names because everyone was so kind and welcoming. I also loved the small photo keepsake they take and give you, it was such a nice touch. The owner even came around to check on guests, made sure everything was good, and shared some history about the winery. Overall, it was a great experience.

    There aren't words to describe this experience. Nothing does it justice. Just come here. If you're still reading, here's some more: - service is out of this world - everything is curated and personal - the food is five-star restaurant level flavor - we fought over the bread (they mill their own ingredients on site) - the wines are incredible and diverse - the vibe is relaxed, clean, quiet, and modern - they give you a tool roll to choose your own adventure

    TLDR: A new small business with great sustainable values ran by the beloved Baker family, but the price and service were quite a shock! With the excellence and strong following of the Old Westminister Winery, we were eager to try their new venture, Burnt Hill. Starting with the good. The architecture and interior design is stunning! Think modern farm with a Japandi interior and warm cozy lighting. We viewed the new lounge as well, which has complementary furniture but a more relaxed, casual feel. We went at night but we highly recommend going in the day and sunset, when you get to view the scenery and the wild sheep! We were greeted at the door with the Blanc de Blancs (as part of our reservation fee) and had a Polaroid taken by the staff that was given to us at the end of the meal (a nice personal touch). We opted for the $85 tasting experience, which included 3 tastings of the estate wine, turkey red bread with heirloom tomato butter and brown butter sesame butter, acorn squash soup, Apple fennel salad with romesco, salted peanuts, and olives. The food was delicious and executed perfectly. The bread was warm and had a nutty tone, and the butters complemented it so well - they also explained the multi-day baking process and it truly is a labor of love! The salad was fresh and crisp, with the perfect tang from the romesco sauce. In addition we ordered the pork torchon which had a lovely flavor from the cured pork and got to try the chocolate cake and strawberry sorbet which were the perfect ending. We also got to chat with Drew and Tae, who were so kind with their time and shared the story of Burnt Hill. Now some problems I have. The hefty non-refundable reservation fee of $26, though it includes a tasting of the Blanc de Blancs, felt forced, especially as reservation deposits are typically refundable. Not the typical method but we bit the bullet. We also thought coming in that the $85 fee for the tasting experience was exorbitant but were hoping to feel at the end that it was worth it but unfortunately we didn't. The wine pours were half of a typical, and the garden snacks were overall not filling. Though they were delicious, the soup was only a sip, there was literally 10 peanuts, and not even enough olives for 2 per person! I'm not one to usually think about the price when experiencing a high end restaurant, but we unfortunately could not stop thinking about it. There is no sample menu on the website so we were not sure how filling the snacks were going to be, so I had to eat a small dinner before going, which I do not love that I had to do. I definitely would have been hungry otherwise. We also were disappointed with the service, given the caliber and price of the place. I asked about how one of their dishes was prepared and they could not answer, which is surprising given how small their menu is. They were more proactive about trying to clear our plates (literally one server came 5 minutes after the other) when there was plenty of space on the table, making us feel rushed, than filling our water. We were quite dehydrated at the end of the meal and I think water is quite important for a wine tasting especially for the drivers at night! Finally, it seems like their concept heavily leans on regenerative agriculture and farm to table dining, which adds to its uniqueness (and even price). If such an important concept, I would have liked to be introduced to the story, even if through a short blurb on the menu, if not through the waiter. This would be incredibly important to set the tone and intentionality of the meal. I also found it odd that our chairs were pointed towards the dark windows. In the day it makes sense to see the scenery, but for night time, it would have been much better to face the rest of the restaurant - which again is beautiful. We really wanted to love the place, but with the pricing of the menu, it's just not worth it. I would expect full pours with the wine and multiple sizable dishes, especially with the dinner time seating. I'm quite sad I have to give it a 3, but I am excited for Tae's chef counter to open and hopeful about how Burnt Hill will transform and grow over the next year.

    Sometimes a new business just blows you away. And that's what happened when I visited Burnt Hill Farm for the first time last weekend. I'm a big fan of Old Westminster Winery. It's beautiful and fun and has, in my opinion, been making the best wines in the state of Maryland for years. Why am I bringing this up in a review of a different business? Because Burnt Hill Farm is the new project from the family team behind Old Westminster. And while I'll always love Old Westminster, they've really hit it out of the park with Burnt Hill: the facilities are even more beautiful, the views even more stunning, the food even more delicious, and the wine? There are more vines at Burnt Hill than Old Westminster, and they're offering some really incredible wines already. More on all of this below. So what is it? When you arrive, there are three buildings. One is main tasting room. It's stunning, like you've arrived at fancy restaurant in Copenhagen or Stockholm (the Scandinavian vibes are intentional). The other is more of a lounge building - for private parties and groups. The third - when it's done soon - will be a restaurant space - a chef's tasting counter. All three of the buildings stand at the top of the hill looking like modern architectural masterpieces - stark, but in a good way; standing out from the landscape, but somehow drawing your attention even more to that landscape because of the contrast; windows and glass everywhere, letting you see through the buildings into the gardens and vineyards beyond. The views are really amazing. You can see Sugarloaf Mountain, but in the foreground before it? Their intentionally wild landscaping and then rows and rows of vines. And they're making the best use of the land that they possibly can. There's an apiary on the property, and they're using the honey from those bees in dishes at the tasting room. They're growing wheat that will be used in the bread program. When we arrived, we were immediately treated to a glass of Blanc de blancs (one of my absolute favorites we tried; this was absolutely not the only glass I had during our visit) and a tour of the property. Then, we were seated in the tasting room for a wine tasting with snacks made in their kitchen. We were seating at a table at the window, facing the window, so we got to enjoy their incredible view throughout our tasting. We tried three more of their wines (all reds, including a Gamay, that is the first Gamay made in Maryland and an absolute stunner). Our snacks included vegetarian snacks: bread and butter service (the herb butter they made blew my socks off); a little shooter of chilled corn and curry oil soup; a salad of raw, fresh vegetables over an eggplant puree; as well as some olives and nuts to snack on. Everything was delicious, so we decided to eat a bit more and added on their take on a charcuterie board (local/regional cheeses, a peach jam they made, an apricot mustard I would drink, and more). So, so far I've mentioned the views, the property, the great local focus, the incredible wines, and the delicious food. On top of all of this, the service was truly incredible. Kristen and AJ made our experience even better. They were helpful, informative (we learned so much about the wines they are making and experimenting with), and lovely. We had such a great time with them. We left with four bottles and very inspired by what might be the prettiest place I've been in the state of Maryland. Burnt Hill Farm is incredible. Trust me - you're going to want to experience this incredible place. Don't wait to make a reservation. I personally can't wait to return and can't wait to be a part of experiencing all of the plans and projects they have for this business in the future.

    Setting & Atmosphere Burnt Hill Farm offers a rustic yet aspirational ambiance -- rolling countryside views and a property clearly positioned to become a destination winery. Guests are greeted with a sparkling-style Chardonnay, a charming nod to hospitality. However, the tour of the grounds, while pleasant, felt cursory -- more a gesture than a full immersion into the vineyard's story. The nostalgic photo keepsake was a thoughtful touch, aligning with the farm's ethos of creating memory as much as taste. Service The service was exemplary. Staff were well-versed in the wines, spoke with confidence, and elevated the experience with warmth and attentiveness. Their professionalism was easily on par with what one would expect at a Michelin-recognized establishment. Food & Pairings The food program, though limited by the lack of a completed kitchen, demonstrated glimpses of potential. The bread -- house-baked, using ingredients from the property -- was superb: perfectly textured and paired with two butters (a savory, umami-driven plant-based spread and a honey-sweetened butter) that showcased balance and ingenuity. The accompanying nibbles -- nuts, olives, a mixed green salad, and hummus -- were modest in portion and, notably, best suited for individual tasting rather than true sharing. The miniature cup of corn soup, though creative, was texturally and flavor-wise the weakest dish of the lineup, lacking the depth or refinement expected in a tasting context. The wines were presented in measured sips -- evocative for evaluation but arguably underwhelming for enjoyment. Three small pours for nearly $100 per person left the experience feeling more like an introduction than a full expression of the estate's range. Presentation Plating and presentation were kept minimalistic, aligned with the farm-to-table ethos. However, there was little in the way of theatricality or artistry; the focus remained rustic and unembellished. While this fits the setting, at a luxury price point, the presentation could aspire to more. Overall Experience & Value At just under $100 per person, the tasting leaned heavily on service and atmosphere to justify the cost. While the bread course was exceptional and the staff flawless, the portion sizes and limited menu left the experience feeling incomplete. A single full pour of one of the wines, or a more generous shared charcuterie board, would have elevated the value and satisfaction considerably. That said, the farm is still in transition, with a full kitchen under renovation -- a factor that tempers criticism and suggests the promise of more ambitious culinary offerings in the future. Verdict Burnt Hill Farm delivers warmth, elegance, and a glimpse into a potentially remarkable wine-tasting destination. The service and bread course shine brightly, yet the restrained portions and pricing structure leave refinement and generosity as opportunities for growth.

    The entire experience was worth the price from start to finish! My birthday plans were thwarted due to the winter storm but we were able to snag a last-minute reservation here and this experience saved my birthday weekend! We had an incredible red wine estate tasting, and they were all delicious, complex, layered and smooth. The food pairings felt generous to us, and were equally delicious, especially the bread service. Isaac walked us through the different notes and the history of the soil and terroir. We were lucky enough that Drew- one of the owners, was on site to explain more of the history to us. Burnt Hill is a really special place and well worth the trip to Clarksburg. We highly recommend this experience and look forward to coming back with friends soon. What a great addition to the region.

    Absolutely incredible. Food, staff, wine, ambiance, everything was just *chefs kiss*! You can tell so much thought was put into every detail. I cannot wait to go back.

    Entire experience was amazing. Service was top notch, ambiance was perfect, views were stunning, and food was delicious. 10/10!!! The best part of this winery is THE WINE IS WORTH COMING BACK FOR!!! We met one of the owner's and were impressed with his story and his expertise in creating such a beautiful getaway for our DMV staycation.

Let me first add the context that I don't really identify as a wine drinker, but will still occasionally visit vineyards because I think the experience is nice. 61 vineyard was a cool spot for sure. They have a nice open location with tons of space (I think they said around 40 acres) and they've been expanding their main location for the four years that they've been open. They have a main tasting room, an expansion seating room, and an outdoor patio area that are all well maintained and great for parties of all sizes. I partook in the wine tasting which was very good and the staff was very friendly and easy to talk to (which I find often makes or breaks wine tasting experiences) The wine itself does seem on the pricier end for what I'm used to where I think the average bottle here goes for over $20. But there are also member and subscription types of services to take advantage of discounts. I'm not entirely sure if they have relationships with food vendors, but they didn't have many food option in the main location itself when we were there. The food options that I saw were prepackaged charcuterie packs, so I would keep that in mind for your visit. All in all a very nice winery spot and would recommend even if wine isn't typically your drink of choice.

I'm not sure how tastings would work when they are more busy. We went at opening on a Friday, so we could sit at the bar and hear about all the wines. There were so many good wines, but the Albariño really stood out as crisp and fresh and different.

The wine itself was really nice; we had several bottles of the rose at the table. It was light, crisp, and easy to sip in the nice weather. I was impressed that they also had 2 non alcoholic wines; the non drinkers in our group were happy to have some options made just for them (which were delicious also). There is a third party pizza business that had food offerings; we had many different types of their pizza which were all good. Very smart to have a food option for folks to enjoy while we sip our wine. Overall, the property is wonderfully maintained and the wines meet all expectations. I'd recommend giving this spot a try if you're looking for a nice winery north of the beltway!

The crab fries my friends ordered from the food truck outside was fun to eat too, definitely satisfactory for those with munchies when you drink.

We asked for two samples of the cab franc and chard as we wanted to buy a bottle and listen to the live music. They happy gave us a taste of each. The cab franc is wonderful and we got a bottle and cheese and crackers for the afternoon. We've visited before and it's a simply a very nice place to visit.

    The ambiance is bar none. At every turn I kept imagining a reason to book the space or bring…read moresomeone. Cozy, simple and sumptuous. We tried many wines, including: -the Crossvines Cabernet Franc-raisin and almost Nebbiolo overtones; -the Crossvines Barn Door red blend-balanced and warm with a hint of spice yet low tannin; -the Fairway rosé, which was light with great flavor and perfect with spring foods; -and the Riesling and then house ciders, with cherry and peach popular with different people. We settled on a bottle of the White Blend, the "Front Porch". It was not groundbreaking yet likable worked as a clean canvas that went with a lot of foods, not oaky, tangy, sweet, or dry. I enjoyed the butternut squash soup. I watched my friend enjoying the Farmer's Market salad and wondered if I should have gotten that instead! My friend enjoyed her burger and fries. The burger was pretty big and looked satisfying. My friend said the crab dip was really good, too. The best part for me was trying their wines while engaging with our server and the general manager. We talked about some of the events like wine tasting and menu changes and line dancing. We saw more of the gorgeous venue and bookable space for 300 indoors. It was relaxing and enjoyable and while I couldn't eat many items due to a wheat allergy, I definitely wanted to return soon and enjoy the backdrop and support a local winery.

The service was great, everyone was very welcoming. The food was surprisingly good as well. Really enjoyed the crab dip and the pita bread was deliciously buttery, it came out hot! We relaxed and watched/judged people playing golf, it was perfect.

    We spent a few days in Fauquier County region and were able to check out some new wineries as well…read moreas a few favorite. Crimson Lane was one of the new spots and is now a favorite. Off the beaten track and up on hilltop with beautiful views, this winery is AMAZING! Tastings are table side with knowledge staff guiding you. They offer both their own estate wines as well as an assortment from VA and around the world. Their wines were well balanced with layers of flavor, depth and long finish. My favorites were the Petite Verdot and Sauvignon Blanc It is best to make a reservation. They also have a food menu. We did the 2 estate tastings, several glasses and shared a burrata. I could have stayed all day! My rating rationale for beer, wine, or spirits: +1 Service +1 Atmosphere/Vibe +1 Taste/Quality (Flavor, aroma, and overall quality of the beverage) +1 Presentation (Glassware, garnishes, and visual appeal of the drinks) +1 Selection/Variety (Range of beer, wine, or spirit options and uniqueness of offerings) My rating rationale +1 Service +1 Food~Taste/flavor/quality +1 Presentation +1 Atmosphere/vibe +1 Value

    **I will preface this by the fact that for once in my life, I did not do my due diligence and…read moreresearch the wineries rules and regulations before coming. The review does not reflect the fact I did not get to try their wine, but rather the way I was treated when I attempted to plan a trip to visit the "right" way** We were driving past this spot on a nice Sunday, coming home from a family lunch, and thought why not stop in? I did not have a reservation because (as mentioned above) I wasn't aware of needing one and I wasnt sure when I would be able to stop in as I was just passing by (we live 1+ hour away). As we pulled into the long dirt road, the front gates have no clear sign that says 'By Appointment Only' - perhaps a good add before your clients drive up a steep unpaved road to just be turned away. None of the vines appeared to be in use so the drive up may be more beautiful one day when the grapes are on the vines. The parking lot is a bit cramped and full of fancy cars, giving us a taste of the type of clientele that would be inside. We came in and I inquired if I could do a wine tasting. The staff member told us we needed a reservation but that he would do his best to try to see if they had space - totally fine. My mistake again- I did not realize that this winery required reservations (no other winery I have been to in Charlottesville, Middleburg, or NOVA has done so) so my first assumption wasn't that I needed a reservation. Again, no sign at the front that says this and would have saved me time. The space was obviously gorgeous, the views spectacular and it felt very Napa and upscale. The staff member returned back and told us they couldn't accommodate us- ok, disappointing but ultimately is what it is. I asked the two staff members standing there how early they recommend making reservations, as we dont live in the area so I need to plan ahead. They told me it was hard to tell but that basically any time it's warm, it will be hard to get a reservation and that "Saturday visits are a pipe dream" and Sundays are "pretty impossible too". They then kindly told me "you could try to snag a reservation maybe a Thursday or Friday". Mind you, their hours are 12-5 on Thursday/Friday...I live an hour plus away, let alone with traffic. I guess my only options are to take off work to come visit as it seems there will be no chance for me to ever get a reservation for 2 on the weekends.... Needless to say, it felt like the staff really could care less for our future business and we politely left. The staff did not offer to help us book a future reservation or anything of that nature - just a snooty response that I probably shouldn't bother every attempting to return on a weekend. Hilarious enough, I decided to look up their website and low and behold - they had tasting reservations that same day at 3 PM (45 minutes after we first asked about a tasting) - no offer to us to wait or come back to return, just basically turned away. Cherry on top- they have tons of reservations open for future Saturdays and Sunday. If you don't want my business, you dont have to tell me twice. If I want to deal with pretentious folks, I'll fly to Napa and drink wine actually grown onsite.
