If I could give the old man working a 0 star I would. We showed up 5 girls two guys. We are two white guys. The girls were black, and brown. The old man gave us the menu, then he asked for IDs only for the black and brown women. At first we thought it was age, but they weren't sitting next to each other which we found off. He never asked for my ID or the other white male. Then my friend said "are you going to Id everyone or just us?He said "not really" and myself or the other white person of the group we then realized it was racist. Then we asked after the first pour we asked for the bill and he said "no charge, bye" In the most dismissive way. He closed the door behind him while we were already up out of our seats and down the stairs towards our car. This happened on September 6th. Don't go here. read more

This was the second stop on a three winery tour through Shenandoah Valley. It's a tiny little winery, and we took a very fun back road route from our first winery to here; was quite a cool drive in my truck! This is a tiny winery with a very "mom and pop" kind of feel to it. After walking up the stairs and into the area where they do wine tasting, it almost feels like you are in someone else's kitchen! When we arrived, there was only one other couple who had just finished their tasting, so we really had the place to ourselves (Saturday afternoon). The tasting ($7) included two dry whites, three reds, and four dessert wines. The whites were pretty okay (I am not a huge fan of white wine, so that means they were good!), and I liked all three of the reds. The Chambourcin and Cabernet Savignon (available on weekend tastings only) were very good, and I ended up taking home a bottle of the 2010 Cabernet Savignon (Special Reserve). The real winner of the wines was their Blueberry Wine. Now, I am not a big fan of dessert wines, and most blueberry wine I have had tastes syrupy and overly sweet. This wine actually *tastes* like fresh blueberries, and we liked it so much that we got a carafe of it and sat outside on their tasting deck to enjoy it. The view here is EXCEPTIONAL. Truly, truly breathtaking, and we were the only people here! The owner and his wife were both very kind and welcoming. This winery is still "up and coming," but it has a vibe of a business that I would love to continue supporting. read more

Returned to Wolf Gap this weekend and his wine selection has expanded impressively. He now has a dry Riesling that he's proud of, and matches the drys I've had in upstate New York. He had just returned from a five day vacation and apologized for the coldness in the tasting room (it was damn chilly in there). No fireplace (like Cave Ridge) but ample spots to sit outside. His Syrah is also a winner, and he now has a blueberry wine that's pure blueberry - not a blend. I had to resist the urge to make a pancake comment. Wolfgap Willie (owner and winemaker) also has something called Mariage Special Reserve -- a blend of cab franc and chambourcin....delicious. read more

This is a smaller winery, but sometimes that's a nice change of pace. After you go through your tasting you can grab a couple glasses of wine and a plate of cheese and crackers and head out to the deck to enjoy the gorgeous view. We found a lot to like here, especially the Traminette (white) and the Cab Franc (red). They also had a blueberry wine that was really interesting. Very subtle--not overly sweet like some other flavored wines can be. read more

Absolutely wonderful vineyard. The wine was very impressive from top to bottom and Wolf Gap Willie was a gracious and knowledgeable host. The views are spectacular. We stayed for a cheese plate and a half carafe of the Meriage Reserve and left with a case of wine, getting at least one of each wines available. What a great establishment! We will return for sure. read more

We have been here twice and both times we enjoyed the wines. It is a small winery that is a good distance from the interstate, but worth the time. The tasting room looks like someones kitchen. I would say that they could accommodate about 6 people tightly. They have a nice view of the mountains from their back deck. You can see wolf gap in the distance which is why they chose the name. Anyways, on to the wines. They served a total of 9 wines. 2 whites, 5reds, and 2 dessert wines. 09 Viognier-Traminette - This is a 50-50 blend of the two grapes. it was a very crisp wine. 09 Cedar Creek Chardonnay - It had a lemon/lime nose to it while the taste to me had a hint of pineapple. A different Chardonnay, but nice. 08 Merlot - This one would taste great with pasta. It was very smooth. 07 Cabernet Franc - This one was a Double Medal winner at the VA Governor's cup. We enjoyed this one as well. Most Cab Franc's have a peppery taste. This one had a light peppery taste. 07 Cab Franc Reserve - We enjoyed this one much better. It had been aged 4 years in the barrel. Very good Cab Franc. 08 Chamerlot Reserve - This is a 60/40 blend of Chambourcin and Merlot. 09 Chambourcin - This wasn't on the tasting list, but he brought it out for us to taste. Another nice wine. I think this could sit a while though. Lobo Loco - This was a semi-dry with a slight fizz to it. Blueberry Wine - 100% blueberries. Sweet yet tart. It had 2% residual sugar. We really liked this one. I can definitely enjoy this one on a nice summer day. A nice winery to stop by if you are in the area. read more

This is a weird place. The people were friendly, but it was just, off...First, why "wolf gap"? Well, we asked, and apparently way off in the distance was a gal in the mountains called "wolf gap." But the winery isn't in or near the gap, so it's kind of a random name. The tasting room space seems like it used to be someone's house, and they didn't try to hide it. We chose Wolf Gap because they had advertised pizza, and we wanted to do a tasting during our lunch break. Well, the pizza was just frozen pizza from the grocery store, and it wasn't even fully cooked. So don't go for lunch, if you decide to go at all. Wine is fine, but overpriced. I won't be going back - Virginia has much better wine to offer elsewhere! read more

This winery is unique in that it's set up like a home. The wine is great & they have some unique wines I was impressed with. They have great deals when you buy bottles too. We got 6 bottles with allowed us two free glasses and two free tastings. I was impressed with this stop. The view is great too!!!! read more

We loved the personal attention - these wine makers are so happy to be making wine and the wines are great! We had a private tour of the cellar (and a taste of the 2013 Mariage a Troís) - and can't wait to return when they start pouring the next vintage! A great Virgina Winery to stop into if you've visited the main ones and are looking for a fun new experience! read more

Above average. A burgeoning new wine place in the Shenandoah valley. Met the wine maker, seems like a smart, talented guy who has a lot of passion for wine. I expect good things from this place. I can't recall much about the whites (maybe there wasn't any?), but the reds were well balanced and showcased a lot of know-how. They do a Syrah in the French Rhone variety. Its mostly Syrah, but has a bit of white wine blended. Not always known, but some of the world's most powerful reds (Rhones) is blended with white wine. They do a top notch job there. And as is the case with so many other places, make sure to try their Cab Francs, they are currently selling two different ones. Let me know which one you prefer, I have my preference. read more

Wolf Gap Willie! I did a lot of research for our trip out to the Shenandoah mountains over New Years and Wolf Gap was the only winery that was open on New Years Day! After a morning of snow tubing at Bryce, we stopped by for one of the most breathtaking views you have ever seen of the Shenandoah mountains. THIS winery gets the award for best view, hands down. On top of all that, Willie is so sweet and hospitable. They have an amazing Cab (doesn't even taste like the light bodied Cabs of Virginia!) and some of the best wines we tasted in the area. Since we had imbibed pretty heavily on NYE the night prior, we only ended up getting 1 glass and sitting out on the patio but this vineyard is not to be missed on your Shenandoah wine tour! read more

Everything a winery should be. Impressive grounds, idyllic, mom-and-pop shop run by a charming couple going on 52 years of "mariage" (as one of their reds is aptly named). A Vietnam Air Force vet married to a proud Texan, they convert chemical engineering know-how into grape (and blueberry!) prowess. Fantastic wines, all but one of which come directly from grapes on the property. Don't miss their chambourcin (the epitome of Virginia wine), cab franc (borrowed from a neighboring vineyard), and blueberry wine -- the best in the area. Stroll a delightful gravel path around ponds, bridges, and picnic tables as you sip on some of the best wines west of the blue ridge. read more

I came here with my husband (prefers beer) and my dog (Yorkie). The dog was not allowed in the tasting room, but he was allowed out on the deck, so that is where we did our tasting. We tasted all 9 for $7. The tasting does not include your glass. The owner offered us a bowl of water for our dog, which was a really nice touch. I enjoyed the wines...their best our their reds, but I'm a moscato person so I preferred their Chardonnay, Traminette, Lobo Loco Rose, and the blueberry wine. Deals: 10% off for military, free glass with purchase of 1 bottle, 2 free glasses with 2 bottle purchase, free tasting with 3 bottle purchase. The view on the back porch is the best. read more

Wine is delicious. Food could be better. Staff is wonderful, hilarious and very hospitable.

After about 5 left turns we pulled up to Wolf Gap. I had seen on their website that they offer blueberry wine and I was curious. If you are a fan of sweet wine, this really isn't the place for you. I am used to strawberry wine being rather sweet, so when I sampled the blueberry I was expecting sweet, but I was actually pleasently surprised that it was sweet, but not too much. I liked it enough that I bought a bottle, and if I am ever in the area I may return. read more

The owners were extremely gracious in allowing us to do a tasting so close to their closing time, as well as feeding our three sons. Their wines are delicious and they gave excellent details of each wine they served us for tasting. read more

Where do i start....visited here for a tasting with 4 others on 10/15/16. Our hostess was a bit flustered stating they are "slammed". Tastings are done at tables on the outdoor patio upstairs, but which was chaotic because she was going table to table with everyone on a different place in their tasting. No swish/rinse bucket offered. When switching from the reds (which were served first ), she came out with a paper towel in her hand ripped into 5 pieces, she then picked up each glass one by one and finger wiped the inside. Wine itself is horrible vinegar tasting. Not sure which was worse, hostess or wine, but this is definately one to pass on. read more

Good tastings by the owner on a Sunday morning. Interesting wines, liked the blueberry. nice views from the deck.

Had an incredible time at Wolf Gap Vineyards tasting wine and enjoying the view from the back deck. We loved the Chambourcin and the Cabernet Franc and bought bottles of each to enjoy out back. Wolf Gap Willie let us stay out there long after the tasting room should have been closed. Willie's stories of rough necking, Air Force service and CIA work kept us entertained for hours. His passion for wine making is very apparent and overall a great experience!! read more

Average winery that is slightly overpriced for the wines. Beautiful views. About average for the area. Wouldn't go out of the way for this one. read more

Beautiful location and the vintner was on site during our tasting. Tastings are done upstairs with balconies both front and back of building with seating for nice days. Otherwise, there is seating available inside. Small tasting counter done out of a kitchen. Mostly reds were available for our tasting - I thought the franc was especially nice with a peppery finish. The one white was a Chardonnay and it had a nice light and dry taste. A few interesting wines: their rose is very floral and one of their reds is mixed with Maine blueberries. A little sweet, but quite nice. read more

Stopped by Wolf Gap Vineyard over MLK, Jr. weekend. Awesome wine. Beautiful views. I particularly enjoyed how personable and kind the owners were. Highly recommended! Plan on signing up for the wine club. read more
