    South African wines with depth! Reds in VA can be extremely basic, but this VA grown SA grape is delicious! We went on a Sat about an hour or so before closing and had no lines, excellent service and delicious wines with a detailed charcuterie board. The grounds are less impressive than some VA wineries, but the service and accent (if you meet the owner) add to the whole experience. This is one of my new favorites. Close to Richmond, great depth of flavor wines, and fabulous service. Infact, we sat at a table and each tasting was brought to us. (They are redoing the tasting room.) While the bathroom reviews are not wrong, (a bit sketch now).... New ones are in the works. So glad I found a great Red in Va!!

    Visited several wineries this day but this one was my favorite. The personal tasting experience was great. Dion ( sorry if I misspelled) was very attentive and friendly! He presented us some exceptional and unique wines. The grounds were very nice and relaxing. I really enjoyed the Koi Pond!

    It was my first time going to this winery. The owners and workers are from South Africa. They were super funny and very sweet. Be careful that when you park you don't go to "grandpas house" The barn with the wine is closer to where the horse is and it has some table and chairs. We were the first ones there and it's super small but cute. I can't imagine what it's like when it's busy.

    Great people and I highly recommend any of the charcuterie boards!! Relaxing place to spend an afternoon.

    I stopped by on a Sunday afternoon to try some wines based on the great reviews. As I neared the tasting room, I noticed lots of uncleared tables, and found the same inside. There were 3 of us waiting for assistance and finally a woman showed up. When I heard that they were out of all white and rose wines, I left. It's ununfortunate that I wasn't able to try any wines. It would have been difficult to find a clean table anyway.

    Yummy!

    I have been wanting to stop by this winery and I am glad we did. The owner was very knowledgeable, explained each wine well. Smooth, great tasting wine. Nice selection. Good charcuterie board, highly recommend.

    This is the most wonderful small family owned winery specializing in South African wines. They have vines both here and in South Africa and have wine dinners and the annual South African festival. Deon and Max are knowledgeable and extremely talented. We have been going there for many years and have never been disappointed.

    While in the Richmond area we decided to give Grayhaven a try... The young lady working there was quick to greet us and she was very friendly, helpful and accommodating. The venue itself is very rundown, and since they weren't allowing customers inside, I couldn't imagine how tastings and visit will be during inclement weather. The style of wine they make and offer is South African, which I tend to enjoy. The wines we tried that they make were just OK, one was horrible, but that's just our feeling of it - to each their own. We did find a wine they offered, which was imported from another winery in South Africa that we enjoyed, so we stayed and had a glass or two from that bottle. Can't say that we'd return, not much scenery to enjoy while sitting & sipping. The koi pond was decent, but that was about it.

    I LOVED this winery. I enjoyed every wine, even the reds. I will visit again. The venue is fashioned after a hobbit abode. It was cute. We sat by the pond and the owner served our tasting. He was very informative and kind. We bought two bottles of wine. One was a Rosé from France and a bottle of their Rendezvous (a red wine). There were a couple of ladies there when we arrived and another couple arrived when we were getting ready to leave.

    What a joy! We got to visit this winery on the most beautiful day of the year yet and couldn't have spent it at a better place. We were sat at a table on the deck by the koi pond, surrounded by flowers, and treated to their tasting. Now we're a group with varying wine preferences but there wasn't a wine in the tasting we didn't enjoy. The wines were easy drinking without being forgettable. Can't wait to go back and enjoy another afternoon here!

    This is one of the most unique experiences we've had! 100% loved it. The owner was buried....single handedly serviced a full house. He was able service each table without making it feel rushed and without making you feel he was inattentive. Bravo! I really appreciate the effort. It's an absolutely charming place. Not pretentious, just a beautiful and luscious style garden with some delicious wines and other drinks they will share while enjoying a tasting. Caution.....the granny slayer will get you!!!! The lychee sangria was absolutely brilliant for the beautiful day we've had today. I also became adorned to the Rendezvous and Orange...I think we will experiment with that during the holiday season. The owners are very personable and make sure to get around to all of their guests. We sat on the outskirts of the property due to the amount of guests but the visitors look like they would be fun to socialize with. I highly recommend a visit to Gray Haven Winery.
