Outstanding experience! Delicious wines! We came here on our tour, just the two of us, and immediately felt welcomed as we walked in. Our Hostess was also serving three other groups in the tastings, but we did not feel ignored or left out at all! We took our time going through the tastings, and absolutely loved so many of the wines that it was difficult to choose which to bring home with us. Their wines have a depth and delicious quality to them that was really unique and we really enjoyed! We also purchased some of the sausages and two of the baguettes to eat while we were there, and the baguettes were served warm on cute cutting boards for us to cut up and enjoy at our leisure. Highly highly recommend! A wonderful stop!

Excellent family friendly winery with great wines. They even have a dinner to go kit which is a great deal. We didn't try a wine which was not excellent! We would definitely visit again!

Great winery, nestled off the main path near Charlottesville! Loved the 2016 Zephyr and 2017 Rose. Clean, bright place with friendly staff! Thanks Lauren for your informative tasting!

Impressive wines and knowledgeable staff. We enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. Definitely a need to visit winery and right down the road about a mile away is Micheal Schapps. The atmosphere is nice and they have plenty of space inside and out to accommodate larger groups. First colony has live music and a thatched roof :) Love that Cab Sauv and Port-style!! Thanks!!
