The building…read morewas difficult to access from the parking lot and the inside was much smaller than it appeared on the outside. No large tables for groups or even space to slide them together unless you go to the second floor, where there isn't a bar or much to look at. Tables were wobbly and the chairs uncomfortable. The lighting was poor and hard to read the menus. the staff member felt brash and aggressive. We left, and had the rest if the group meet us elsewhere-all 12 of us. As for the wine we felt bullied into buying became sangria and cooking wine. Not everyone is cutout for hospitality and this lady surely doesn't understand social cues or guest experience.

I saw a sign for a winery while en route to another and decided to make a stop. I hadn't heard of…read morethis place and had no idea what to expect. Let me get the "bad" out of the way first, and note this is still a five-star review. You drive up a gravel country road to a small building that houses the tasting room. It's the smallest tasting room I've ever been in, and very simply decorated: a few beautifully framed pieces from the farm's history, some antique tools, and that's about it. This isn't going to be your upscale winery experience. If you're looking for Napa or Bordeaux vibes, you're in the wrong place. The single guy behind the counter turned out to be the owner. He mentioned that his wife usually runs the tastings, but she was on vacation. He was fantastic, fun to talk with, knowledgeable from both a production angle and a "yes, I actually drink these wines" perspective, which is surprisingly rare. He even spoke warmly about nearby wineries, treating them as colleagues rather than competitors. It's always refreshing to meet a winemaker who genuinely enjoys other people's wine. As for the wines: we tried all twelve. A couple were still young and could use a few years in the bottle, but they showed a lot of promise. I didn't care for the Muscat, but most of the others were excellent, and I had a hard time choosing which bottles to take home. Be sure to try the "Trop Elyts"; it's fantastic, and kind of port like. I'm not usually a rosé fan, but their take on it was so unique I bought a bottle of that, too. The farm itself dates back to the 1700s. George Washington probably slept there (he slept everywhere). It's full of character and history, and well worth the stop

Overall: small, casual winery, decent wines and prices, with okay service and a single restroom…read morethat you have to go outside to enter They have indoor seating, a covered patio, and outdoor seating. There is not strong AC anywhere there. The indoor seating is very small and feels like you're in someone's grandma's living room. Tastings are done in a flight with plastic cups, not one at a time in a glass. We did enjoy the wines and eventually enjoyed talking to the one employee who was there, but it was a rough start. When we entered the tasting room we were the only people there except for one other man. We had to initiate conversation with him to determine if we were in the right place and if we could get a tasting. It was confusing and we didn't feel clear about what to do or welcomed. I did enjoy the Rich Forest Chard, the Rose blend, and the Hogshead Red. It was interesting to learn about the residual sugars and how their rose is different. There is a cemetery on the premises which was an interesting choice.

We met my brother and his fiancé here a little after 6pm on a Saturday. He told us that on…read moreSaturdays nights they have live music and in addition to wine they sell various boxtail drinks from the Mason-Dixon distillery and craft beer. They also host different food trucks. When we arrived, we were really not sure where to go. There is no defined driveway or parking and there quite a few cars. My brother said they had parked in front but we should probably park in the back because it was getting busy. He said they were seated under the old greenhouse near the back. We parked and started walking to the greenhouse. This did not even look like an event space, there was really no guidance or direction of what to do. The greenhouse had most of the walls removed and there was a food truck parked near one side of it. We found them near the back of greenhouse at a table. Next to the greenhouse were some pop up canopies. People were seated all over the place on random tables and chairs. I don't think any of the four chairs at our table matched. We also saw some people carrying their own chairs. After our greeting, my wife and I wanted to get a drink and they told us to go up to wine shop where we could pay the cover charge to get the wristband and get drinks.  We found a door on the back of the building and walked in. The inside was kind of random. I saw antlers on the floor, a small scale covered wagon and other random stuff. There was a counter where you could see that people were ordering drinks and we got in line. We paid our cover, got our drinks and headed out to check out the food truck. They have wine, a few different beers and boxtails (cocktail in a box). After getting our food, we joined my brother and his fiancé at their table. A band started playing classic rock music and continued off and on during the evening while people danced and sung along. The place was packed, had food and good drinks. This is a very casual place almost like it was just thrown together. You need to check it out at least once.  They do not have bathrooms and only offer portable toilets. Overall it was a good experience and definitely different.

The owner/vinter walked us through each selection and told us how the wines were made and where the grapes were grown (some local, some in California). It was fascinating and clear he really understands his work and is passionate about sharing his knowledge with customers! They also have beer available from local breweries like Evergrain. There are some food options available as well. They host trivia monthly and have live music on occasion, too! If you like sweet (and I mean VERY sweet) wines you MUST try the Cotton Candy! It's made from Cotton candy grapes and is spectacular. We really enjoyed the tasting and got a bottle of Reisling to enjoy at home. We will most definitely be returning (especially once it's warm enough to enjoy their patio)!

But sure enough the sign popped up a few weeks ago for one of Loudoun's newest vineyards, so we stopped by to give it a try. The setting is fantastic- a nice little pavilion in between the fields. One of the owners was behind the tasting counter and was incredibly friendly, as was our server. We did a tasting of the six wines available- and this was the first winery we have been to where we actually really enjoyed all six. We even sat down for a while with a couple glasses to enjoy the setting and wine. I'm not usually one for white wines, but the Alborino was excellent. They are definitely worth a stop and a great addition to the local wine culture.
