Wine in the Barn

It's time for a little festive cheer as we sit back relax and enjoy some wine and fun conversations closing out another year of fun experiences and friendship while exploring the many beautiful parts of DC, Maryland and Virginia.

Wine tasting in a barn

We have selected a winery known for its beautiful barn and scenic view, besides having won the 2017 Virginia's Governor's Cup and 2018 Virginia Governor's Case.

Wine in the Barn

The Barns at Hamilton Station Vineyards situated in the quaint town of Hamilton, Virginia offers a getaway from busy schedules and the hustle and bustle of a city life. Ten breathtaking acres surround a beautifully restored hundred-year-old stone and wood dairy barn, which has been transformed into a unique tasting room.

You can bring your own picnic to the winery which also offers a light fare of meats, cheeses, spreads, warm baguettes and crackers.

The Barns at Hamilton Station Vineyards

The wine maker Michael Shaps is known for creating wine in the traditional, old-world style inspired in the Bordeaux French style, but are uniquely expressive of Virginia. He strongly believes in choosing grape varieties that represent the potential of Virginia viticulture.

The white wines focus on varietal intensity and the retention of natural acidity while some of the reds are crafted to be age worthy and require cellaring.

The winery has live music on Saturday afternoon which we will enjoy with our wine picnic in the barn.
