    A Memorable Return to Black Sheep Vineyard - 7 Years Later…read more It's been about seven years since our last visit to Black Sheep Vineyard, and I've had the itch to return ever since. I'm so glad we made the trip back--it was even better than I remembered. Right from the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a welcoming and light-hearted atmosphere. The gentleman running the tasting room--who I believe is the owner--has a friendly, witty sense of humor that made the experience that much more enjoyable. At one point, someone told him, "We Googled wineries near me and this one popped up, so we drove over from Flushing." His deadpan response? "Sorry to hear that." We all had a good laugh. We were able to taste whatever we wanted, and I dove right in. I started with the Leighton, a dry white made from Seyval Blanc grapes--crisp, smooth, not overly tart, and just delicious. I ended up taking a bottle home. Fun fact: in 2018, this wine was $12.95, and now it's $15.95--only a $3 increase over seven years. Not bad at all for a wine of that quality. Next up was the Traminette, a semi-dry white with lovely spicy notes and a touch of citrus. Then the Riesling--aromatic, semi-sweet, and incredibly refreshing. I shifted gears to reds with the Vivian, a dry red made from Frontenac grapes, named after the owner's wife's parents. It's aged first in stainless steel and then for 60 days in Buffalo Trace bourbon barrels. It has a smooth, unique finish with a slight tartness that really worked well--I even grabbed a glass of it to enjoy after my tasting. From there, I tried the Cabernet Franc, a lighter-bodied dry red aged in American oak barrels. It had a beautiful spice and peppery aroma--complex, yet very drinkable. Then came the Dark Continent, a bold and smoky dry red made from Marechal Foch grapes. Earthy and robust, this one's a must-try if you like darker, deeper reds. Finally, I had a sample of Hair of the Dog, a semi-sweet red blend made from Frontenac and other French hybrid grapes, also aged in American oak. It had a nice smoky backbone with a pop of berry sweetness at the finish--a really fun and flavorful wine. I learned that some of their grapes are sourced from Erie, PA, and I'm not quite sure what varietals they grow on-site, but it's clear they take pride in crafting each wine with care. Black Sheep Vineyard is definitely worth the visit--whether you're stopping by for a tasting or simply want to share a glass with a friend. The wines are solid across the board, the staff is warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere is relaxed and filled with personality. Can't wait to come back again--just hopefully not in another seven years!

    We loved this little vineyard. The staff was very friendly. Loved the Bonnie wine. We ordered 2…read moredifferent cheese trays and both were great and completely gone. Also really cute venue.

    We went here on a Monday midafternoon when we visited Parkersburg, WV on vacation. Our first…read moreimpression was that this place would be stereotypical WV: there was a gravel driveway, a no-frills farmhouse and pole barn with vinyl siding, and a dog barked at us from the kitchen as we pulled up. I figured at least we'd get a good story out of it. But when we got in, we were greeted by Craig and Candie who are the "mom and pop" of this mom and pop winery! Craig led us through the tasting of about 7 wines, and he shared historical information about WV wine country, grape lineage and history, the politics of wineries in WV, and most importantly what makes a "perfect wine". Suffice it to say we learned A LOT! And the wine was great too! We walked away with 6 bottles (they can't ship), and we plan to go back next time we're in town!

    We had charcuterie for 2. We were delighted to have gluten free options. The owners waited on us…read moreand they were patient and attentive. They helped us put together great flights, with 12 samples. If you are interested in wine at all, the owner can school you on everything you would ever want to know. Incidentally, they do not use additives in their wine. There were many European-style options. I shy away from tastings in Ohio because I am overwhelmed by the sweetness of the wine, but this is an entirely different experience. In addition, the beautiful building was created with wood from their land with their sawmill. This will be on our list of places to take company from now on. It's only 17 minutes from Marietta, with a quick turn off the interstate.
