I enjoyed the atmosphere, being surrounded by lush vegetation, tall pines and of course the vineyards. In a historical setting and staff dressed in 18th century garb and in full character. The appetizers were great. Various cheese and a delicious puff pastry with brie and fruit. Dinner was a light fare and served cold. However we were part of a... More

Went on Saturday afternoon at 3:30. We were able to get into a tour ($10) within 10 minutes. They stopped giving tours at 4:30 since they had a wedding beginning soon. The tour guide was great as well as knowing a lot about the winery and the wines we tasted. We spent about an hour there. Great afternoon diversion!

The Winery has a restaurant, vineyards and a large facility for parties and events. The paid tour is informative and very interesting with an opportunity for wine and cheese tasting. I found the place to be delightful. Be sure to get good directions as it is a bit out of the way.

This winery was very impressive in every aspect. I planned to ask my girlfriend to marry me while at the winery following a tour and enlisted their help. The gentleman I spoke to was very accommodating, even coming in on his normal off day to set up everything for me while we were on the tour allowing my proposal to... More

very impressive reserve tour, worth the cost of admission! great tour with lots of history and a good lesson on wine making, then a Reserve tasting in the cellar with cheeses and crackers/bread. Very knowledgeable staff, our Guide (Jack) was very good, as were the Reserve wines, having only had Governor's white in the past, We were pleasantly surprised with... More

We have followed virginia wines for years starting with the barrell tasting. These wines have finely come into their own to compete with the finer wines in the world. We did the reserve tour with the higher end wines and were suprised at the quality. Our tour guide was exceptional in his knowledge making the tour interesting as well as... More

We enjoy bringing our visitors for the WW tour but don't inhale too deeply or your skimpy wine sample may completely disappear before you get to taste!

The tour is a nice way to see the winery, and you can get a great lunch at the restaurant.
