Have tasted here multiple times. Thought the 2012 was great, but have come to relish the 2013 even more. more »

Hidden gem in NoVA. Best reds we have found in VA, excellent service and view. If you enjoy full bodied reds come here. The tasting room is quiet and well played out. Marc was our tasting host and showed us a great time, he knew what he was talking about and was appreciative of our thoughts on the wine. Well worth the prices and drive. We will be back, hopefully for the private tasting!

I would not in any way classify this place as snobby. We were immediately greeted with a warm welcome and all the information we needed to choose our tasting. They're on point with taste and value. Their wines are full body reds (we did the cellar tasting) and the wine educator was AMAZING, FRIENDLY AND GENEROUS. It's the experience we've been missing with the influx of virginia tasting rooms in the area. We enjoyed our tasting a purchased a bottle to split with our picnic lunch. We'll definitely be telling our valued friends about our experience.
