I stumbled upon 50 West Vineyards when looking to kill time. 50 West is super chic and cute. Keep in mind, it is a 21+ only location. I did a guided wine tasting. My person was super knowledgeable and taught me things I always questioned (ex. the difference between a vineyard, winery, and tasting room). She even showed me that not all Viogniers are the same!! The warmed cheese with honey and walnuts was delicious! This would be a super cute date spot or even a girls' adventure! read more

We happened to be driving by, saw this place and decided to check it out. We had heard about the name of the winery but didn't know much about their wine. It was one of the best decisions we have made. The wine is superb, only to be elevated further by the incredible guide, Gunner. His knowledge of wine, the grapes, and the high praise of their wine maker really made the whole experience so much better. The low sulfites bring out the flavors of the wine and make it truly enjoyable. The white wines were nice but the reds are the ones to bring home. I must say, huge compliments to the wine maker who is trying something different and new with bold and delicate flavors. The remodeled horse stable presents a beautiful ambiance with a fireplace and windows all around to absorb the views. The main level and the upstairs area are nicely designed in a modern rustic style. The outdoor patio is perfect for the summer or fall days. We also met Elizabeth who is a treat to chat with. The food is great here as well. Amazing! Highly recommend. read more

Visit this winery! The service is great (thank you, Lexi), the wine is very good and the atmosphere is friendly and welcoming. Did a flight and then a glass of wine and found a shady place on the patio to listen to the live music. A perfect afternoon. read more

We went to a few wineries in the area and this was the most elevated in my opinion. The wine and food was great (loved the fresh baked focaccia). The patio was gorgeous and super comfortable, great big umbrellas for shade. I liked their prosecco best! read more

This place is child free and gorgeous visually, providing view of the rolling Virginia hills in a quiet setting. We came in on a Saturday and it was fairly busy but had live music going. We sat upstairs and did the wine tasting for the table, however it got busy and we ended up having to come in to get 4/6 of the wines. That was fine just wish they had just told us when we stopped in after the first time it may be easier to just do the full tasting at the bar instead of expectations of them coming out. The Chardonnay and light colored rose was nice, as well as some of their reds. They do not allow outdoor food and have some small bites you can order. Will certainly be back. read more

A very well done winery and tasting. We really liked the young man leading the tasting and the older gentleman who might or might not have had some ownership. It is always refreshing to have someone who is very knowledgeable about not just their own wines but wine in general. With as many wineries that I have visited around the world, it is nice to learn something, and I did here. I had never personally tasted a Rose of Sangiovese before, and while I did not like it enough to purchase, it was a nice wine. While all wines, red, rose and white were good, we ended up just purchasing some while - the all stainless fermented chardonnay and the very refreshing Vidal Blanc. If in the area and looking for wineries, this should be in your top 3 list. read more

BLUF: Not bad, but there are more welcoming vineyards in the area. Went back with a group on a Saturday afternoon. This was my third visit. One thing that hasn't changed is that the staff is very controlling, and pretty focused on corralling people into where they want them to be. For example, we were told we had to leave the room we were in because they had a live band that was going to play and that band attracts a lot of "groupies" so they wanted the space. Well, there were LOTS of tables open the entire time that band played. There were other examples, but let's just say they don' t make it easy to like being there. The actual people serving the wine were wonderful, but those running the place could be a lot more accommodating considering it was a miserable cold and wet day and we brought in people who bought plenty of wine and food. The wine itself is okay. Nobody raved about it. I will say they had a blended red that is about the only red wine I've ever liked. If you're not a red wine liker/lover, ask to try it. I sadly can't recall the name, but they will know if you ask. read more

We stopped by 50 West Vineyards on our way back from a hike. The space was open with beautiful outdoor seating areas. We tried the tasting menu which reasonably priced. It was done by the bar and was guided by the sweetest staff member. After our tasting menu, we grabbed a glass of our fav wines and a small bite indoors to avoid the bugs. Food was great, the ciabatta bread and Camembert were warm and delicious. I would skip the spread next time though. We stepped outside to enjoy the wonderful views afterwards and enjoyed our time there. read more

Beautiful dwelling with two floors of glass walled tasting & dining rooms! The Staff were nice and welcoming! Property is set on a higher ground overlooking the lush green landscape and which allowed a backdrop for wedding venue. During this visit on Saturday April 13, our friends Dr. Rob(chiro) and Elizabeth invited us here-they are members here(and I, at Fleetwood). As for the wines, I've only had the reds the few times I visited here and they were okay, needed more time to mature in my opinion. $50 for a bottle of cab franc or $40 if you're a member, which makes it comparable to other vineyards in the area. Almost forgot that our quarterly wine pick up in the winery i'm a member renders about the same but taste wise way better! Place serves a redeeming great brie and bread which I like so that makes it easier to enjoy the wine. Important to note that I appreciate about 50 West is the friendly easy going but great ambience also extended to man's best friend so how can it go wrong? My beautiful blue eyed Border Collie/Aussie will be joining us next time for sure that the weather is more agreeable-he has great manners so don't fret!Worth a visit! Hi read more

The small food plates are low priced and delicious. The wines are amazing. The ambience and scenery are perfect, but best of all is the customer service to Melanie for your kindness, your friendliness and always making this a wonderful experience (shout out to Natalie too). You're the real reason for coming out@ read more

This is the first visit since a couple of visits in the early days of 50 West. The Aldie/Middleburg area is beautiful so you will get great, pleasant views. The staff was very welcoming and helpful. The tastings were great, and it made it easy to pick our wine for the day, the Rose of Sangiovese. Being a bit hungry, I asked for a few suggestions and ordered a few things. Every item was presented well and tasted great. I strongly recommend the summer bruschetta board. read more

Sexy Boujee Winos (SBW) Our recent tour on February 9th was an absolute delight, as we were graciously hosted by two exceptional wineries Our destination was the stunning 50 West Vineyard. I was thrilled to return and show SBW the new tasting room. Katie, the owner, was a delight to collaborate with and enthusiastic about hosting us. Natalie weingardt was in charge of our guided tasting of 6 wines and was informative and very knowledgeable. Kelly Gilfillan was also eager to help and provided excellent service. The wines and service at 50 West were absolutely incredible, and the overall experience they provided was truly outstanding. The new tasting room is absolutely stunning and adds to the overall ambiance of the winery. *My favorite wines were the Viognier, AShby Gap, and the Merlot . A huge thank you is in order for 50 west for providing such a wonderful experience. I highly recommend visiting as it offers something truly special that you won't want to miss out on! read more

Service drives the 5 stars of this review! Not all wineries are created equal, some might have good wine but don't understand customer service....50 West Vineyards has BOTH. The minute we stepped into the tasting room we were greeted with a warm welcome and this continued through out our visit. Tasting bar staff were personable and knowledgeable You can taste at the bar or take a flight, glass or bottle to a table inside or outside on their beautiful grounds. Nice variety of wines, most made in French style. Gorgeous grounds. Note: 2019 Ashby Gap was the 2022 Gold medal winner at the VA Governors Cup and the VA Governors Case Winner read more

If you are looking for the best vineyard in Middleburg, look no further - 50 West is the one. Great views, great customer service, and even better wine! I went with girlfriends on a Saturday afternoon and we just sat on the peaceful outdoor patio. We started off with the wine slushies - frosé and strawberry pineapple. I enjoyed the frosé the most - it was refreshing and not too sweet. Each wine I tried on the sparking flight and white flight was delicious. I'm not usually a fan of Chardonnay but theirs made me want to buy a bottle to savor the taste and enjoy from home. Tasted the Viognier and Petit Manseng, and had to get both! I heard they have live music on Friday nights and on weekends. I wish they had pizza on the menu but they do allow you to bring your own food if that's what you have a taste for. Thank you Miles for making sure we had a good experience. read more

Wonderful Mothers Day celebration Saturday with my daughter at 50 West Vineyards - where we finished the afternoon watching the clouds roll in over the mountains & sipped their Brut Rose by a fire pit table. We started the afternoon at Stone Tower Winery where we enjoyed lunch. She'd arranged an Uber trip between the wineries. We had wine tastings at both wineries presented by personable, patient sommeliers. We laughed and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Our patient husbands provided safe transport. Con: Our cheese spread was a box of Boursin plunked down on the table; the chocolate selection was an unopened box of chocolates handed to us. read more

We absolutely love 50 West Vineyards. The staff are so friendly and knowledgeable, and the wines are good. We think the ambiance and beautiful views are stunning. We keep returning for this reason. I highly recommend this place. read more

Unknowingly came on the "grand opening" weekend. Greeter was wonderful! We got lucky and had a guy do our tasting that was funny and provided a lot of wine knowledge. He lead us to two wines we loved. We then found two chairs on the patio with a spectacular view. It was a wonderful experience! read more

Beautiful tasting room that overlooks the rolling hills of Middleburg! There are tasting bars on each floor, but the best views are on the top floor, so I would highly recommend snagging a table indoors or on the veranda up there. They offer light bites in addition to wine. 21+ and dog friendly. read more

As new members we plan on coming to 50 West more often. So far their wines are fantastic! Gunner helped sign us up. He and the rest of the sommeliers are an absolute pleasure to chat with. Their renovated barn exudes class, complimented by gorgeous bathrooms & breathtaking patio views of the mountains. I look forward to becoming fast regulars with my wife. Happy new year! read more

We stopped here at 50 West Vineyards. I like the setup with the 50, not sure what it all means. We didn't do a flight and just selected a wine that we thought that we may like. I had the Chambourcin and my wife had the Vidal Blanc. They were both yummy. It was a great November day to sit out in the vineyard and try some wine. I enjoyed the setup, they had a 1 man band performing, nice vineyard, places all over to sit and enjoy wine. It was small inside the facility. read more

We love going to wineries and have frequented a LOT of them in Virginia. 50 West is surely a favorite! Great venue with fantastic mountain views from inside and out! The the great wine and tasty menu selections are spot on. However it's the friendly service that set this one apart from the rest. We highly recommend! read more

This was the last stop of our weekend trip to Middleburg. From the moment we entered we were greeted with smiling faces and a warm welcome. My husband and I both ordered a flight. They have some of the best reds that I tasted all weekend. However, since hubby is not the biggest fan of reds, we settled on a bottle of Vidal Blanc. Since it was pretty chilly outside, we sat inside and listened to the soothing melodies from the entertainer. We would definitely recommend. read more

We had such a lovely day yesterday at 50West! Anthony, who hosted the guided tasting was knowledgeable and fun and took great pics of us to keep as memories. You can take anyone here and they will be able to find a wine they like. There is ample outdoor seating, both shaded and in the sun, and this is a great place to spend an afternoon (or all day, as we did.). Thank you Anthony and 50West for the great service, the delicious wine, and a lovely day! read more

Beautiful scenery, delicious wines, and lots of outdoor tables. We grabbed a picnic table with comfortable Adirondack chairs. They were plastic but still comfortable to sit it. And really easy to move as we relocated our table for extra safe social distancing. They attended to the fire and kept it going. We brought our own food and enjoyed two bottles of white with another couple. Perfect activity, pandemic or no pandemic. read more

Pretty little wine tasting room at 50 West! When I arrived - the downstairs tasting area was packed! So I patiently waited for the tasting counter to open up. After about 10 minutes of waiting - a lady came over to me to tell me that I need to go upstairs. I had looked up there when I first arrived - and was told the upstairs was closed. But then they "opened" it to accommodate all of the new traffic that had just arrived. The upstairs area is quite cozy. I tasted all of the wines on hand - and asked a lot of questions about the winery from the young lady who was pouring my wine. She did a good job of answering all of my questions! Nice wines and an awesome little winery! #50WestVineyards read more

Well... reservation "fee". It is common practice for wineries to take a reservation with a fee. However, the wineries that I've been to then credit that towards a tasting or glass when you show up. To take $11.50 from me just to hold a table was a bit outrageous. Also, I specifically said that I was coming to see the musician and We were put in another room with a wall between us and the music. The young lady that showed us our table was not a happy pleasant person. The tasting barn is under construction so we were in the club house; perhaps that might have caused difficulties. We did enjoy our tastings. Our group did two separate tastings, 3 of us each. The staff was knowledgeable and flexible. We enjoyed the Petit Verdot and the Merlot. Looking forward to trying another visit when the barn is completed and without tossing my money for a table. read more

Had a nice time at this winery. Staff were really nice and they had live music. Lots of seating outside and some inside as well. Dog and kid friendly. We got all 3 flights, and they were okay. The sangria was really good and refreshing on a warm day. The Brie mixed with honey and nuts paired well with the baked bread, although very salty. So glad they had food since we hadn't eaten, but smarter to bring your own food, which is welcome. read more
