    Wine Country is a magical land of its own, but Twin Oaks Tavern gives you even more of a feeling of being swept off to some distant, beautiful land where you can just relax and forget about reality for a little bit. This adorable winery sits atop one of many winding Virginia hills, so that you are able to look out over the vineyards themselves and the hills and valleys beyond. It's a view you want to just be able to soak in for a long, long time without ever looking away, and there are also giant windows that look out to this view, as well as a deck where you can enjoy. Something else very important about Twin Oaks: they have wine slushees! Not all of the wineries have them so that's a very important note in my opinion. And the slushees are sooo good. The brie, almond and honey spread with bread was TO DIE FOR. Between that, the slushees, and the view, we were happy as could be. This is such a gorgeous winery full of life and sweetness, and even my friend who is a local said it was her new favorite spot in wine country. So yeah, what I'm going to say is you need to visit!

    Five star setting and service with live music on Sundays. Three stars for the wine. I didn't love the wines as both of the white blends are Chardonnay forward, and I'm not a fan of Chardonnay. Also tried the cab Sauvignon and the Red rocks blend but didn't love either. The Vidal Blanc had some nice passion fruit notes but there was something musty on the nose that I didn't love. We tried the chicken skewers which were pretty tasty. Most important they are super dog friendly and dogs are allowed in the tasting room (important since it was snowing!).

    Watermelon cooler - very sweet, not my favorite.

    Nice winery with sweeping views of the mountains! I love the 2 floors of wrap-around deck shaded under the trees with plenty of space for social distancing! The winery has a nice relaxed casual vibe. The stone tavern has some pretty interesting history - built over 125 years ago in 1893 used primarily as a bed and breakfast weekend getaway for travelers from DC who took the train to Bluemont. The tavern was destroyed in a fire, nice to see the evolution to a winery! The winery was following Covid-19 protocols by banning tastings inside the tavern and keeping tables 6 feet apart indoors and outside. While the wines are dry, the wine slushie frozen delights are a fun way to cool off in the scorching summer heat! The slushies are on the sweeter side and loaded with sugar like the Watermelon cooler, which wasn't my favorite. The Vido Colada made from Vino Blanc was more balanced and just right. The Spice Wine Chiller had a nice spicy kick from the mullied wine! The fruity slushy is much more refreshing than just a glass of the Raven Rock Red Mullied wine. Excited to come back and soak up some nice views with a vino colada slushie!

    It's a very cute, rustic beautiful place nestled in the mountain side. With a great view of the vineyard below the deck and out between the rolling hills this winery is awesome. I love the popular wineries but this is a great hidden gem I am definitely coming back to. No crowds or overly dressed fashionistas there for just the gram/pictures. You can get wine by the glass or bottle. They provide a cork as well if you don't finish. The only issue is I wish they had a larger food menu available. We got the baked Brie with honey and almonds. SO GOOD. Highly recommend. I wanted a second! They do have a parking lot but it can get tight so be careful. No reservations needed and it wasn't slammed during the weekend. They have indoor seating as well that have great views and looks like a live band?

    This winery has a beautiful deck that overlooks the vineyards and you can see the mountains from afar. It's not my favorite winery. I wasn't really a fan of their wines; however, I really enjoyed their wine slushies. 3 stars. I will definitely come back for a frozen wine.

    We visited this winery recently for a Sunday afternoon wine tasting - never been here before. We opted for the Red wines tasting - although they were out of one of the Reds. Overall, some interesting wines with potential - I felt like they all could use some extra time aging/maturing. The staff was friendly and interactive. The tasting room is very cozy, and the view off the back of the property is gorgeous! Worth a visit! #TwinOaksTavernWinery

    This winery was less than 1/2 mile down the road on the same road where we were staying at. We stopped here and just grabbed a wine v/s trying the different wines. The wine was good, I had a CAB and it was amazing, the wife had a mulled wine that was nice and warm. We went outside and enjoyed the vineyard view and nice view that is in the area. Nice place inside, appears that they have an area that you can stay on site as well. The lady working the front bar was pleasant and nice. Enjoyed my time here and wished I had more time to spend it here.

    Really nice winery. Nice relaxing views. The wine was great. Staff was very friendly and informative.

    3.5 stars; Twin Oaks has a decent selection of wines, friendly service, and beautiful views. With 3 acres under vine they end up getting grapes from out of state. There wasn't any particular wine I loved, but nothing I disliked. But the ambiance is enough for me to want to go back, especially with a picnic. 3 tasting options are offered; a partial $7 tasting, $12 for the full 11 wine flight, or a $3 fruit wine only tasting. Their wine is among the most reasonably priced I've seen in the area: the most expensive was only $24! That might be because technically this is part of Shenandoah, not Loudoun. As many have noted, Twin Oaks has one of the nicer views in the area; while it doesn't have the same sweeping views nearby Bluemont has, it does have a more secluded feel to it. And as the name implies, it does have a super-cozy vibe. Lacking Bluemont's crowds is definitely a plus. As for the wine... Whites & Fruit: The 2013 Chardonnay had tart apple nose and woody taste. Not bad, although I thought the 2014 vintage they also served was better. The 2013 Chard/Reisling blend was pretty good. The Peach and Raspberry wines I thought were just OK. The Vidal had a nice tropical palate. Reds: The Oregon-grown Zinfandel had raspberry notes. The 2013 Bordeaux style Raven Rock Red was nice and spicy, and only $23. The Norton had a dark chocolate or cherry palate. One unique thing is they had a "Spice Chiller", which was described as Christmas in a glass. Even more Christmas-y was the mulled wine. Both were made from the same Raven Rock base, and were pretty good; maybe my favorites of the entire menu.

    What a lovely winery! Located literally 800 meters from the Raven Rocks trailhead, Twin Oaks was the perfect scenic stop after a hard morning hike. The staff were all super friendly and the wines, though not particularly complex, were all eminently drinkable. Our party did both white and red wine tastings ($6 for 4 light pours of wines + 1 wine chiller) and enjoyed them both. Twin Oaks' whites were on the sweeter side; however, each wine did have a distinct flavor profile and solid body. The Chardonnay 2014 had the tang of green apple, while White Nights and the Vidal Blanc were much more honeyed. Their "rosé", a mixture of red and white wine, may not be the correct, traditional method...but it was so delicious, I ended up getting two glasses and our table regretted not buying a bottle. We did split a bottle of the Cabernet Sauvignon, which was smooth and not too fruit forward. We were also super into the wine chillers - the lemon wine chiller was like summer in a glass, but the mulled wine chiller really stole the show. It tasted like Thanksgiving and Christmas all rolled into one delightful, icy beverage. The pours are pretty generous - basically half the glass then a little splash. Food options are a bit sparse; we got the brie cheese platter ($12), salami and crackers ($10), and a bunch of bags of Doritos, but I'd recommend bringing your own food. One of the highlights of Twin Oaks is the incredible scenery - the winery is situated in a beautiful, renovated former tavern overlooking a vineyard and the Blue Ridge Mountains. I also liked that there was a large deck area (where a large bachelorette party set up camp), and a smaller, more secluded deck area that gave us a bit more privacy and quiet. When we ducked inside to try more wines, we were regaled with live music. All in all, a wonderful way to while away the hours on a warm weekend afternoon.

    Large tasting room and outdoor patio, beautiful views, live music, friendly staff, and good wine. My favorite were the reds: Merlot and Hawk Mountain.

    Amazing! I love this place! Amazing views, great staff, delicious wine, good food! You will NOT be disappointed! Donna became a great friend of ours and is such an amazing host! We became members and will be back! Try the white mix (Chardonnay and Riesling) as you will not be disappointed!

Northern Virginia has a lot of winery options, but Bluemont offers a few things that make it special. First of all, it's huge - tons of indoor and outdoor seating on two levels. They take reservations. We made for one for noon on Saturday. We were seated upstairs/indoors but eventually moved to their upstairs deck (we were there for hours and wanted a change of scenery). Their views are incredible. You can see the Blue Ridge Mountains from practically anywhere on the property! I hadn't seen my friends in months, so we stayed for almost five hours. We started with their white wine flight, and then we had a few bottles, too. We also ate (beef empanadas, a flatbread, and some black bean hummus). We enjoyed most of the wines (between the flights and bottles, I think we tried 6 whites and 1 rose), and the food was pretty good, too. The service was great - Lily and Rose were our servers (there was a shift switch, since we were there for almost 5 hours) and they were wonderful. They were a little busy downstairs when we arrived, but it's such a large space that there was plenty of seating for more. (It seems to be a spot on wine tours, because there were a few buses when we arrived.) I'm not sure if you really need a reservation, but I'm glad we had one since our plan was to eat lunch at the winery. We had a great time at the winery.

We ordered from scanning the QR menu and placing the order on our phones. This place was pretty much a self service which gave a nice and chill vibe. We ordered a bottle of the 2024 Sauvignon Blanc Reserve. It was light, crisp and smooth which is what we were looking for. The food came out quickly too. We really enjoyed the crab dip! I ordered the steak frites as well. The fries were good but the steak was just okay in my opinion. Overall, the service was quick, the views were great, and we would definitely be back again to try more wine :)
