I arrived a little early to set up for our celebratory occasion. Our waitress Michelle was super sweet and attentive. She offered us a welcome pour of their "You are my Sunshine" which was lovely. I honestly could've done without the flight that I ordered and just had this! Our food was delicious! From the appetizers we shared to the selection of pizzas we ordered. For desserts we ordered the Lemon Tart Cheesecake, Pistachios Strawberry Macaroons and I was able to bring in an outside cake for the occasion. Which was absolutely delicious!!!!!! The almond/vanilla cake paired well with the rosè. Our cabana was clean and set up perfectly for our arrival. The grounds and views were absolutely amazing....they offer mini amplifiers to listen to music from your phones... Really was the perfect afternoon for a perfect occasion. Looking forward to my next wine adventure!! Cheers to more life! Happy Yelping!!

This is a cute little vineyard that is not really a far drive from Baltimore. A friend of mine had…read morebeen asking me to stop in and check it out for a while and since I had a Sunday off with no other plan I figured it would be a good chance to take the drive out there. They aren't open every day except for Tuesday and Wednesday. If you are thinking about going on a Thursday Friday or Monday be aware those dates are by appointment only. They are also available to host private events. Looks can be deceiving, when I arrived it looked like it was someone's home. Come to find out it actually is the owners of the Vineyard's home and they have a tasting room attached. The parking lot is very small and only able to accommodate a few cars. I recommend car pooling if you can. They have a very nice patioSet up with fire pits and heat lamps that I would be willing to bet would be nice to sip wine and have a conversation. It was a little bit too cold for my taste when I went on a Sunday in November so I chose to go inside. The tasting room is small and due to Covid restrictions they have limited seating. Mask use is mandatory here. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable about the wines that I have. I don't know too much about wines Oh I opted to have a tasting. For seven dollars I got six samples of wine to choose from. After sampling them all I made a decision to purchase a bottle before I left. Definitely a great experience and I recommend anyone who enjoys wine to make a trip.

Representing the DMV runner-up to out of town pick for letter B for 2025, B is for Black Ankle…read moreVineyards. My girlfriend & I visited Black Ankle on a Saturday in September 2025. We were out somewhat in this direction, and there was a Meetup group going here, so we thought to check it out as it's rare we ever go to a winery as it's normally out of the way, more likely of an occurrence when on a vacation. We took some crazy back roads from where we were in western Howard County, through Carroll, & into eastern Frederick County, where Black Ankle is. We went to the bar inside to get wines. I got a white wine; I think Chardonnay, and I think my girlfriend got a sweeter Rose or something like that. Both were delicious, but we preferred our own more. We sat outside in a nice patio area. We were in the hot Sun on that sunny day, but that was cool with me. We learned of a tour going on, which we got in on. The tour guide who wore an Italian flag bowtie was entertaining and informative. We walked around the vineyard, going inside the cooled storage areas, centrifuge area where the wine is mixed, etc. We even saw some of the old wines they had made from years earlier. We saw sheep dogs, which protect the vineyard from pests, which were cute. Overall, this is a high quality winery with plenty of nice outside & inside seating.

I also had a glass of the chocolate raspberry, which had a wonderful aroma and was a delight to sip. The porch was a perfect, relaxing spot to enjoy the wine, and I appreciated that you could bring your own cheese and crackers or a snack. I only wish we could have stayed longer!
