    Pearmund was our last stop on a Friday of wine tasting. We got 2 wine flights (1 red flight, 1 white) and I was delighted that the sparkling was an option! We took our flights outside to enjoy in the vineyard and were delighted that the music (by the owner/winemaker) started early. Our favorites were the sparkling (though too $$ to purchase) and the Cab Franc. Black Ops was a little disappointing, but overall we enjoyed our tasting. The ambiance is top notch and I was so relaxed! The inside is also very cool - tons of wine books! I could totally see myself coming on a rainy or winter day and leafing through some books.

    One of my favs, the Cabernet Franc

    Pearmund Cellars ranks high in the Northern Virginia wine circles--award-winning wines, stunning grounds, friendly service, and a rewarding tasting experience. While the summer weekend crowds can be sizable, the overall package delivers consistent quality, memorable visits, and excellent value. They don't serve food but have snack options, a local food truck outside on specific days or you can bring your own.

    Great sounding events!

    Beautiful views, fabulous service, and a wonderful day off! They do have light snacks, cheeses and warmed up baguette, which was fabulous! We enjoyed a few of the wines!

    Beautiful scenery

    One of my favorite wineries in the area with beautiful scenery, delicious wines, great staff, and dogs are welcomed on the patio! Hubby and I did the flight of 6 for $18. Note wine souvenir glass is not included in the flight, it's just a small $3 upcharge (it's worth it!). Interestingly, Pearmund Cellars is the oldest VA Chardonnay winery since 1976 and grows its own grapes specifically for the Chardonnay wine. For the red Black Ops Wine, some of the proceeds go towards a charity that raises funds for veterans. They raised $15K last year. After the tasting, I got a glass of the Viognier (native grape to VA) and bought a bottle of Rose after having a glass. There's an array of cheeses and crackers to choose from. We bought aged Gouda and rosemary cheese and herbed crackers, which paired well with the wines. On a quiet Monday afternoon, I enjoyed relaxing and taking in the sweeping views of the luscious vineyard. The staff was super nice and didn't heckle me for wanting to share a tasting with my hubby (we ended up getting our own). I prefer Pearmund over Bull Run, which has a bit of a snooty atmosphere. Excited to come back and highly recommend!

    The staff were so kind and knowledgeable at this winery. I've been to quite a few wineries in the area and this was one of my best experience as far as crowd, customer service, and the taste of the wine. Also good value for the experience - a 6 wine tasting was $18 and you got to explore a wide range of the menu. We chose this winery because there is a picnic company that contracts with them that can set up a private picnic under the willow tree. (Warrenton picnic co. Highly recommend) The grounds are beautiful with plenty of shaded areas to sit away from the crowd. There are food options on the premises but I enjoyed that you could bring your own picnic as well. I'm more a fan of reds so the cab franc/cab Fran reserve is really good and the black ops!

    Beautiful well kept winery over an hour from DC. It was a great day trip out, sooo picturesque! My husband and I did a tasting and were quickly impressed with their wines. It's a good sign when you're following the tasting list and telling yourself which wines you will purchase only to realize it's their tasting list. We knew we had to join their wine club... Which in itself is a good deal/program. It's $75 quarterly, so we can't wait to come out and pick up our wines rather than having it shipped. We haven't tried their farm store or little apps yet but look forward to utilizing our new favorite place when we want to get away for the day.

    Cute little winery nestled way deep inside a gravel road off lee highway. They do barrel tastings. They have snacks and a food truck but food is allowed inside. They also have a heated backside with firepits. Wine is about $12 a glass or you can do a flight for $16 or tasting for $18. It's a cute little winery, but there could be a little more space or a nicer area to sit in (the barrel room is really nice but has to be reserved and the outside is nice, but if it's cold, it's really cold - even with fire pits).

    This way to the wine folks!!

    My husband and I visited Pearmund's Tasting Room (along with half of NoVa!!) on 11/12/2022, the Saturday of Veterans Day Weekend. Our intent was to pick up several bottles of the new Black Ops-7th Mission-as gifts (and a couple for ourselves), but we always love tasting the latest offerings too! We were greeted warmly and offered two choices for tastings: the Tasting offers 6-1ounce pours of preset wines, no substitutions, while the flight offers guests the opportunity to choose any three wines and they are 2 ounce pours of each wine. My husband and I both chose the flight option since we prefer more red wines (the Tasting offers half red and half white). Our Tasting room associate (no name tag and we forgot to ask!!) was lovely, friendly, and helpful as we deliberated choices for our respective flights. Our tasting room associate is a nurse on weekdays and offered her appreciation to my husband for his military service. We reciprocated for hers, especially during covid, and shared that we had many nurses in our family as well. We finally decided on our wines, and in no time, they were labeled on the board, poured and placed before us. We were invited to sit, sip, and enjoy. There was a jug of ice water available, and we made sure to stay hydrated. I took notes on the wines, and we wound up not only buying a half dozen of the 7th Mission Black Ops as gifts (and to cellar at home), but added a bottle of the Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve. This one had me reeling: it is full and rich, chock full of dark fruit like blackberry and raspberry. It's just delicious!! You can purchase cheese, crackers, and other small snacks to enjoy with a bottle of your favorite Pearmund wine. The winery grounds are beautiful. Unfortunately, rains from a recent hurricane left them too muddy to walk them this time. Various houses are on the property, but I am not sure which ones are part of the farm/winery and which are just neighbors. There is a lovely farmstore with great gifts like t-shirts, personalized wine glasses, books, stickers, and other cute gifts for your favorite oenophile. They also offer tastings and sales of wines from their sister wineries: Vint Hill Farms and Effingham Manor. Both sister wineries are worth visits on their own. Vint Hill served as a U.S. Army base up until the late 1990s and was the hub of some pretty covert operations. Check out the museum on the grounds. Effingham is a historic estate that includes a few outbuildings and a small koi pon as well as plenty of seating spaced out along the property so you can truly relax and enjoy the countryside. It is blissfully open to those 21 and older only... no children will be running through your picnic or screaming while you try to listen to the live music and no strollers will be nicking your ankles in line for a wine refill. I do wish they allowed our well-behaved Lab, but it's their property; it won't keep us away. If you're in the

    What a wonderful winery! I was invited to Pearmund Cellars to celebrate my friend's birthday and I had such a lovely time with her and the other party guests (7 of us total)! The winery is unbelievably beautiful and so relaxing. We spent the entire day here on the outdoor patio and had the best time. I started my tasting journey with 3, 2oz pours of the petit manseng, the viognier, and the cameo rose. All delicious. The Viognier was my favorite of this group. We then shared a few bottles of the cameo rose with our group while munching on some food. The cameo rose is so good. You must try it. Later in the afternoon we opted to do a tasting flight and the Cab Franc was my favorite. I should have bought a bottle of the Cab Franc and Rose, but because I didn't, I know I'll have to go back. My friend did have a reservation for the barrel room but they were able to accommodate a quick switch to the outside patio. It was pretty empty when we first arrived (around noon) but it quickly filled up. It was a rainy day so I think that kept things pretty quiet in general, but I would imagine this place can get very busy. There are TONS of places to sit--both inside, on the patio, and even in the vineyard! For me this winery represents wine tasting in Northern Virginia. I had such a great time and thoroughly enjoyed the winery and views. I cannot wait to visit again, and check out their sister wineries also in Northern Virginia.

    This was our first stop on my winery tour for my birthday. The wines were good and the outside space was absolutely beautiful. I'd recommend getting an outside table reserved for a group. They made group ordering very easy and the staff were really friendly! Thanks for making my birthday a memorable one!

We were hoping to grab a small snack while there, but they didn't have any food available. Most wineries at least have crackers or cheese, so that was a little disappointing.

I believe most of the seating outside is in the shade with all the trees. You select the any 5 wines you would like to taste. You also have the option to just order a glass or bottle. They have 3 whites, a rose, 4 reds, and 2 sweet wines. They bring you the 5 wines with a sheet of paper so you can take any notes or mark the ones you like. The tastings are a nice amount so that you can really taste the wine. They are working to become a certified organic winery. I did start with their Ancestral Chardonnay, which I didn't care for, but I really don't care for Chardonnay wines. It was made very different which is why I thought I would try it.
