Bit of a hidden treasure. Lovely folks here who were nice enough to round up the corgis for my son. Great wine and conversation!
We loved our tasting and came away with three delicious bottles. The owners were fun to talk with and even graciously gave our son a ride in the golf cart to let out the corgis. Later, we had fun visiting and petting the pups outside.
I loved that this winery was dog friendly, but a lot of them are in the area. I also thought the staff and family of the owner were very nice and their pups were so cute. And the view was also very nice though not as picturesque as other local wineries. Problem is I just didn't care for their wines. Now, wines are subjective and this place does have 4.5 stars, so judge for yourself. But for me, there were a number of better wineries for the view and/or the wines (though not always both).
If you have a long list of VA wineries and short on time this is one that can be skipped bc the wines are really fruity and unless you can grab a spot at the pergola, then the views aren't as good as others. We love that this small winery is dog friendly. The views of the rolling hills at the pergola are quite lovely but not as jaw-dropping as King or Veritas and others. I used to be a more sweet wine drinker but my palate has matured so these wines were just too young for me. For those just getting into wine these may be a good starting point since they did have some Governor Cup bronze winning wines.
Reynard Florence is a wonderful boutique winery in Orange County, Virginia. They were recommended to my wife and I by friends, and we found the owners Roe and Dee to be very friendly and welcoming. When we walked in the door of the tasting room, we were greeted by two of the cutest Corgis we've ever seen. Jill helped us put together a white and a red tasting. We are by no stretch wine connoisseurs, but they did have a number of very good wines. Among the white wines, my wife very much liked the 2019 Petit Manseng. We also liked the 2018 Ti Rey Rose, which also had the distinction of being named after Roe and Dee's Corgi. We both agreed that the 2019 Petit Verdot was the class of the reds, though I did also like the Malbec. We purchased 3 bottles to take home. We decided on the Petit Manseng, the Petit Verdot, and of course the Ti Rey Rose. All in all it was a delightful stop. In our travels throughout the heart of Virginia, we've found a number of restaurants, cafe's, general stores, and now wineries that have captured our hearts as well as our taste buds. Reynard Florence Vinyard is definately on that list.
Incredible views, incredible wine, and incredible hospitality! You cannot ask for more when stopping by a winery. When you walk inside, the winery team is welcoming and ready to help you choose a bottle or glass of wine that perfectly fits what you're looking for. They are knowledgeable and ready to make suggestions. We enjoyed a bottle of the rosè in the pergola, which has amazing views, and then moved closer to the building to finish. This place is a must stop if you are in the area, or if you're looking for great wine!
Man this place is awesome. The people that run it are incredibly sweet. The grounds are beautiful and there is more than enough space to feel safe COVID wise. We sat in this little sitting area in the middle of the vineyard, which is a great option if you want to have completely your own space. Everyone who worked there respected social distancing as well which is always appreciated. The wine tasting flight was delicious and a great price for what you get. I can't recommend this place enough!
Small winery with a French flair. Focus on dry reds...which they do exceptionally well. 4 acres of grapes, with their reds being estate but their whites being locally sourced. 800 cases a year. I'm pretty shocked such a tiny place was so good. I love my dry reds, and they deliver. The wine maker sneakily got his wife to agree to starting this business, likely in part to appealing to her French sensibilities by allowing her to set the theme (she's a French teacher, after all). Wonderful view from the top of the hill, looking out at the vines. What I tried: 2014 Viognier: OK; nothing that blew me away 2015 Chardonnay: The French Oak comes thru in the creaminess. 2013 Cab Franc: Red fruit forward, little pepper but not bell-pepper. 2015 Merlot: Cherry notes 2013 Recherché red blend (PV heavy): Liked it but didn't love it 2014 Recherché red blend (Cab Franc heavy): Big nose, but again liked it but didn't love it. 2013 Petit Verdot: By PV standards, not especially bold, but still very nice. Grenache: Yes, this is one of the few Grenache growers in this area. Not tasted but I bought a glass. Love this grape; spicy but not peppery.
Words could not explain the gratefulness in my heart that I have for Dee & Roe. Long story short they stepped in to host - 3 days before mine and my now husband's wedding when our original venue fell through. They did not know us, but they truly felt like family on this included day. I don't know how I could ever repay them for their generosity, but I have waited to get our wedding photos back to write this review. Amazing wine, I love the rose personally - named after my favorite corgi Ti Rey.
You MUST stop here while touring the vineyards around Barboursville!!! The tasting room is quaint, nicely decorated with a jazzy flair and the lady who works it is knowledgeable and friendly. The owner (who popped in) is equally as friendly, we enjoyed chatting with him. The wines all tasted VERY nicely! Their whites are blended by Michael Shaps. The reds are very nicely blended as well. We really enjoyed all of their wines and bought 3 different bottles. They have a pretty in-ground pool there, which they explained is open to wine guests during the summer as well, which is odd, but interesting and intriguing! They offer seating inside and outside on a patio or in the vineyard. Overall, we were very happy with the wines, the staff and the venue and we look forward to going back!
We loved most of the wines, but the service is the reason to go. What an informative tasting and the live music was delightful! Being able to speak one on one with the owner of a small local winery is priceless. The grounds are small but lovely, and you feel right at home as soon as you arrive. A really enjoyable visit!
Very nice wines!! We usually go to Barboursville vineyard but this cute little place has just become our new favorite. We liked every wine but our favorites are Reynard Blanc (2013), Cabernet Franc (2010) and the Recherche (2013). Kids loved the dog, access to water (in a wine glass) and the crackers ($1 per pack).
Excellent wine selection !! We loved all wines and the service was so nice. It is a very quaint place but wonderful

Fantastic, intimate winery experience off of 29. The family started this winery a few years ago and live a few steps away from the vineyard. Most are estate grown grapes and delicious. I noticed the whites have a honey note and the reds are well balanced. Michael walked us through a guided tasting of all 8 wines - and we learned a ton! There's seating inside and outside for small groups only. Feel free to bring your own snacks read more
This is a hidden gem. Located off 29 in the Barboursville area Realtively small winery and tasting room though definately NOT small on flavor or quality Michael helped us in the tasting room with a guided flight of 5 whites and 4 reds. He was personable and knowledgeable about the wines and winery. We really enjoyed the wines and bought several to bring home! The wines had good structure, nice body and strong finish. Indoor and outdoor seating. Flights -both guided or self guided, glasses and bottles What we tasted: *VIOGNIER 2023: 100% stainless steel fermentation. Bright, fresh, crisp, refreshing. Oysters, shellfish, picnics, summer afternoons. *CHARDONNAY: Neutral oak fermented and aged. Flavors of apple and pear. Silky mouth feel. Roasted chicken, fish, scallops. *TI-REY RosÉ 2021: Estate reserve blend of cabernet franc-and merlot. Ripe strawberries and red raspberries. Picnics, around the pool or on the deck. *BLANC DE BLANc 2021 -Sparkling Méthode Champenoise. 100% chardonnay. Dry, crisp and refreshing *PETIT VErDOT 2019-Deep color, concentrated dark fruit flavor with spice, earthiness, and oak. Their boldest red. *MERLOT 2023: Dark color, rich, ripe fruit. An approachable merlot with added robustness. Roasts, cheeses, and stews. Governor's Cup Gold 2025. *RECHERCHÉ 2021: Recherché means "much sought after" in French. B|end of petit verdot, merlot, and cabernet franc. Governor's Cup Gold 2024. PETIT VErDOT 2019: Deep color, concentrated dark fruit flavor with spice, earthiness, and oak. **Note wine descriptions are from the winery's tasting notes -not my own 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) read more
The man behind the bar was quite kind and accommodating. I got a flight. The wines were pleasant overall and there was an extra pour that was the bartenders choice. The corgis were adorable and friendly. Plenty of outdoor seating and some additional seating inside. A peaceful little place to spend a quiet afternoon. read more

I've died and gone to red heaven. I visited Reynard Florence early last year, and walked away thoroughly impressed by the quality of the wine produced by such a small, mom-and pop winery. Here I am, back a full year later, and I am on the floor (next to the Corgi) over how good the wines are here, specifically the reds. I would write about the tremendous whites - the dynamic Reynard Blancs, the fruity and fragrant Viognier - but I'm much to excited to talk about the reds. It's very rare that I could purchase every wine off the list, but that's what I nearly did if not for my girlfriend tackling me and taking away my credit card. At the risk of over selling, each of the reds I tried was magnificent. Every. Single. One. Starting with the 2010 Cabernet Franc, which is a hard wine to pull off on its own and not as a blend. The Cab Franc opens with dark cherries and figs and ends with chocolate and a little bit of pepper spice, all perfectly balanced. Next out was the 2013 Merlot, a new release. A silky Merlot is what made me fall in love with red wines, and this one reminded me of that love at first taste - silky smooth with raspberry/cherry and rich tannins. The blended NMA IV 2012 blend was next, made of Merlot, Cab Franc, and Petit Verdot (with a little Grenache), easily my three favorite red blend wines. The complexity of the wine is off the charts, as you get the smoothness of the Merlot, the dark cherry of the Cab Franc, and the dryness of the Petit Verdot. Then we come up on an old favorite, the 2013 Petit Verdot (readers will remember I purchased the first bottle of this last year). Just as good as I remember, full bodied, and dry, packed with tannins and plum. The grand finale was the Recherche 2013, which I am drinking as a write this review. This Bordeaux style blend of Cab Franc, Merlot, and Petit Verdot, it's the most perfectly balanced red on the tasting, and immensely drinkable right now (although I am regretting not letting it age a bit for additional complexity). All in all, I walked out of Reynard Florence with only three bottles of red, as my girlfriend and I need to save something for rent/food, and I immediately regret not getting a whole case. If you're a fan of big bold reds, blended or otherwise, you will be right at home in Reynard Florence. read more
