I had seen some staff outside the front so assumed it was still open as it's a holiday weekend. I walked around back and there was one person, sitting with her feet up in a chair who didn't even greet me. It was an odd experience. I left. Keep in mind - there's nothing else close by for dining, so if they're not accepting guests, your best bet is a wheel of cheese next door - if they're open.

Met a buddy in Columbia for beer and in our discussion, we started taking wine, from Paso Robles to…read moreMaryland. He told me Maryland specialized in Cabernet Franc and Viognier and I knew nothing about Big Cork prior to arrival, but dad it was named as a top 10 tasting room by USA Today. Bold claim, especially coming from California. It was an absolutely beautiful day to visit Big Cory on Sunday. U called to confirm I didn't need a reservation, was told I didn't. That was nice, so I continued my drive to the winery, following three other vehicles that turned into the winery grounds. Ample parking, stunning grounds and views of the surrounding area. A big white building with a surround patio greeted me as I walked in, taking in the ambiance of the place. It was busy with patrons sitting outside, standing at mo sitting at the bar. I was greeted by an English chap, names Andy who said he works be right with me. Gave me a few minutes to look around and take in the experience. Andy greeted me and told me to grab any seat. Told him o was new to Maryland wine, as it was my first time at any winery outside of Paso Robles. I guts my expectations were high but I dialed them back as I ordered my tasting flight. Not a big white fan, I was impressed I'm with their Chardonnay, not buttery like the California. It was light, crisp and fruity. A very well done white. In fact I enjoyed it more than the Sauvignon Blanc, which if drinking a white I usually lean towards. Found this a bit too sweet. On to the reds, which is what I was reliably looking forward to. Andy took time to explain each wine, some characteristics and processes behind each glass. Their Meritage, a red blend was okay but was missing something for my liking. I did however enjoy the Cab Franc as single varietal. Never got to the Siberian Ice but was treated to the Syrah, Nebbiolo and Black Label Malbec. Those last two tasting were wonderful. My tastings done, I ordered a glass of the Rose Brut as I took care of Andy and my bill. I did walk out with a bottle of Chardonnay and Cab Franc. Overall a wonderful tasting with some good wines. Worth checking out but being from Paso I'm not going out of my way to find East Coast wines. I know what my palate enjoys but a little change now and then can be a good thing. If I get t girlfriend out, we will be back.

After hearing and reading the reviews of this place I had high expectations...my hunbun surprised…read moreme with a Saturday reservation here. Once I learned where we were going I was sooooooo excited!! Anyhoo- about an hour and a half away- we ventured here on a sunny Saturday afternoon. I really don't like going out on Valentine's Day. Everything's usually overpriced and restaurants are crazy busy...I honestly prefer just to stay at home but my hunnie had other plans for us hahaha! Despite the snow that's still lingering, turned out to be a perfect day for a winery adventure. Beautiful scenic views of the mountains, a playlist of Teena Marie, Sade and auntie Nita was definitely giving amazing vibes...the company of my Superman...just a perfect day! We had a reservation which is recommended. Our reservation was in the heated tent, outside area where they had live entertainment and he was pretty good! Sang a variety of selections. What I didn't like was there was no wait staff. I guess EARLY Mountain spoiled me! Hahaaaa!! I was expecting the same kind of experience here- but nonetheless we had to place our orders at the bar & pretty much wait on ourselves lol Typically-I was told they offered cheese and fruit plates- but today they didn't....:/( They did have a selection of cheese, crackers, olives if you wanted to create a board of your own... They also have a cigar area and offered cigars if that's your jam... Also noted in some areas they allow for you to bring your pets... On to the flights- wanted to try a few before deciding on a bottle so I went with the dry white option and my boo thang opted for the sweet options. The flights include a selection of 3 wines for $22...I was ok with just my 3 and my love actually enjoyed the port dessert wine which was the third tasting on his flight so I purchased a bottle for him. Appreciated the pizza Big Cork offered. We shared a pizza and ordered some fries from the food truck that was on the grounds. Would I venture back here NOPE! But I'm glad I can finally check this one off my list. Happy Valentine's Day!

CRUSH manages to find the right blend of old and new, upscale versus cozy, not to mention the…read moreproducts they serve - It's much, much, more than wine, which we appreciated. I really liked the electronic menu on the tablet in terms of quick navigation to all the featured products. My one complaint is that I would have liked more information on each of the wines they served. For example, if you could tap on each wine by name and get a brief description that would have helped me. Instead, I opted for one of their many classic cocktails, in this case my traditional go-to first cocktail, a boulevardier, made very well. For an extra $2, they will smoke any drink, and the presentation is as good as the enhanced taste, if not better. I also found the cocktail prices to be quite reasonable. They have a couple of limitations when it comes to payment. We wanted to combine some cash with a credit payment, which they could not do, but we were able to resolve that among our group without problems.

Sit on the patio and enjoy shade under an umbrella or bask in the sun in one of their chairs in the grass. This family-owned vineyard is 1 of 3 locations the Bogaty's own. I enjoyed The PomPom. But try the wine, food, and cocktails and be your own judge of this location!

The wine is solid - it's approachable and not boring. There's something for everyone, including sweet whites, rose', and dry reds. 25 years has led to the family and wine makers perfecting their craft and they make solid VA wines. Now here's where it gets fun: there's another winery on the same property - in the same building! BONUS! Bogati winery also serves food, so feel free to wander between the two... I mean between the doors! Two wineries, one trip? That's just efficient planning. Come for the views, stay for the wine, and leave wondering why you don't do this every weekend!

Theres seating at the bar and a couple tables. We sat at the bar and were greeted quickly. We ordered a few drinks and the bartender was very nice to talk to. She is very passionate about the art of drink making and shared her tips and tricks. She makes a great espresso martini but would probably make you anything you asked for and would enjoy the chance to be creative. We ordered a brie platter which was decent. It was what we were looking for (not a heavy meal). They have wine for sale in the back, as well as assorted ciders, seltzers, and beers. A bit pricey in my opinion for certain items, but that's okay! They have coffee and t shirts for sale too. Dogs are allowed here and the locals seem to know each other and the bartenders know their names too. Very nice and homey to go somewhere that everyone knows each other!!

What a cute little place... and LOVE the owners!…read more We were recently in the area for a drive to look at the fall foliage and discovered this little spot, which we heard was pretty popular with the locals. We definitely understand the appeal, as the food was good, the drinks were good, and the staff were great. We likely ordered too much fried food while there (and it all tasted great), but next time I might substitute some of the fried fare with a salad. But our eyes were drawn to the other tables around us where patrons were chomping on fried pickles (yum), French fries (tasty enough), and onion rings (outstanding). My only recommendations to the owners would be to stick a few more healthy items. Before I close out, I must send another shout out to the owners (a husband and wife team who were staffing the place the day we visited). They are awesome!! I loved the conversations with them and would return to Horseshoe just for drinks and a chuckle... and the onion rings! Final thoughts = check this place out if nearby, but be sure to balance the fried food with a salad.
