Northern Virginia

Gray Ghost Vineyards – Taste & Tour

November 12, 2017 By Jana Leave a Comment

Gray Ghost Vineyards and Winery Collage

Gray Ghost Vineyards and Winery might possibly be the most recommended winery I've come to know. Because Gray Ghost is local to my area, I had waited to visit since I could do so without prearranged planning. Turns out that was like waiting to cash in a winning lottery ticket. Get comfy because I've got a lot to tell (and show) you! I'm celebrating a milestone of sorts: This is my 20th Virginia Winery Taste and Tour post! So I wanted it to be special. As you may remember from my ...

Effingham Manor Winery – Taste & Tour

October 10, 2017 By Jana Leave a Comment

Effingham Manor Winery Collage

October is Virginia Wine Month. What better way to celebrate than visiting Virginia's newest winery? Effingham Manor Winery, located in Nokesville (Northern Virginia), had been on my radar long before their opening. Their wines were available for purchase--and were winning awards--before their tasting room and historic manor were open to the public. As tempted as I was to give their vinos a try, I was determined to wait for their opening to gain the full experience. Definitely worth the ...

Narmada Winery – Taste & Tour

September 3, 2017 By Jana Leave a Comment

Narmada Winery Collage

Narmada Winery shot to the top of my "must visit" wineries list in 2017. At the end of every wine tasting I asked the wine educators to recommend where I should go next. Narmada started coming up with surprising frequency. "Have you been out to Narmada yet?" Once Wine Enthusiast awarded 88 points to their 2011 Mélange and 90 points to their 2011 Yash-Vir, I knew something good was going on--and I was missing out. Well, not anymore! Beyond the Gates of Glory While only an hour ...

The Winery at Bull Run – Taste & Tour

February 6, 2017 By Jana 2 Comments

Winery at Bull Run

Did you ever think that if Grant and Lee could have sat down and shared a nice bottle of Cabernet Franc by a roaring fire that the Civil War might have wrapped much sooner? Okay, maybe not. They would've enjoyed that wine, though. Yet it's a nice alternate reality to play out--especially if you use the Winery at Bull Run as the backdrop. One of the closest wineries to downtown Washington--only 28 miles from the White House!--you can experience a piece of history and cap it (or cork it) with a ...

Prince Michel Vineyard & Winery – Taste & Tour

December 18, 2016 By Jana 4 Comments

Prince Michel - Welcome Sign

One of Virginia's top five wine producers, Prince Michel offers standout wine tastings and a self-guided tour of their operation, giving you more than just a peek into how they make their magic. Couple that with gorgeous countryside, abundant indoor and outdoor spaces, a must-visit gift shop, and you've just found a great way to spend a day enjoying (and learning about) Virginia wine. Where better to learn than one of Virginia's greatest success stories? The Facility . . . Zooming among ...

Aspen Dale Winery at the Barn – Taste & Tour

December 4, 2016 By Jana Leave a Comment

Building on the diverse lineup of wineries clustered among the hills of Delaplane, Aspen Dale Winery at the Barn stands solidly among its peers. One of the few wineries to actually merge Virginia's horse and wine country into a one-stop experience, Aspen Dale will be a hit from excited toddlers to sophisticated wine connoisseurs. You'd be hard pressed to find a member of your group who won't find something endearing about this winery. The Winery . . . As soon as you turn down the gravel ...

Paradise Springs Winery – Taste & Tour

October 23, 2016 By Jana Leave a Comment

Paradise Springs Winery

If you've ever visited Fairfax County in Virginia, what might stick in your mind is the sprawling Tysons skyline or the unbearable traffic you suffered circumnavigating the west side of Washington. Starting right now what you should remember is this: Paradise Springs Winery. Fairfax County's first (and as far as I can tell, only) winery. And while it's the closest winery to the District, proximity should not be the reason you visit. Read on to find out why. Paradise Springs Winery is ...

Miracle Valley Vineyard – Taste & Tour

October 2, 2016 By Jana 2 Comments

Miracle Valley Vineyard

After my visit to Delaplane Cellars, I decided to make a stop at nearby Miracle Valley Vineyard, as well. The Delaplane region has evolved into one of my favorite spots for discovering great wineries. A jump from the interstate and a short country ride will bring you to some of Virginia's greatest wineries. And if you're looking to combine some great wines with outstanding country atmosphere, Miracle Valley Vineyard should be added to your tour. Located atop rolling land against Little Cobbler ...

Delaplane Cellars – Taste & Tour

September 14, 2016 By Jana Leave a Comment

Delaplane Cellars Vista

If you are visiting Northern Virginia looking for a cluster of diverse wineries, Delaplane is the area for you. Home to more than a half-dozen wineries, you can easily compose a tour to fill a full day. Some of my favorite Virginia wineries live here, including Blue Valley, Three Fox, and Arterra. Among this group you will also find the hillside boutique winery Delaplane Cellars, majestically positioned against the side of Lost Mountain. But before you traverse the hill, make sure you ...
