My sister and I celebrated our birthday at Rocklands Farm Winery with a group of 20+ people, and it could not have been a better experience. We reserved a private space with a private tasting, which made the day feel extra special and perfect for a large group. For many of our guests, it was their first time visiting this location, and everyone had such a great time. One of the co-founders, Greg, personally led our tasting and was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, welcoming, and checked on us throughout the afternoon to make sure everything was going smoothly. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do. I also appreciated that some friends who don't drink were still able to enjoy themselves thanks to the non-alcoholic options. The property itself is beautiful with scenic views, plenty of space to relax, and such a peaceful atmosphere. We had amazing weather the day we visited, which made it even more memorable. If you are looking for a great place for a birthday, celebration, group outing, or just a relaxing day with friends, I highly recommend! We will definitely be back. read more

I had an awesome first experience at Rocklands. I joined a group of 15-20 on the first really nice Saturday of the spring season; it was fairly crowded but we got there right at opening to secure a large section of shaded picnic tables. There was PLENTY of seating still - lots of large and small tables scattered throughout the property. They also have seating inside the winery at a small bar. The wine itself was really nice; we had several bottles of the rose at the table. It was light, crisp, and easy to sip in the nice weather. I was impressed that they also had 2 non alcoholic wines; the non drinkers in our group were happy to have some options made just for them (which were delicious also). There is a third party pizza business that had food offerings; we had many different types of their pizza which were all good. Very smart to have a food option for folks to enjoy while we sip our wine. Overall, the property is wonderfully maintained and the wines meet all expectations. I'd recommend giving this spot a try if you're looking for a nice winery north of the beltway! read more

Representing 2019 in alphabet series R is for Rocklands Farm Winery. It was going to be one in Charlottesville, but I noticed they were out of business. I figured R would be an easy replacement. I remembered looking up Red Rocks Buffet in Vegas when I was originally making this list, and they were long gone. They were kind of a let down in Vegas anyway. So, Rocklands gets the alphabet series win, and a solid 5-stars too! So, a true win! I visited with my girlfriend of the time to this winery in August 2019. This is beautiful property a little ways west of Potomac, even west of Travilah driving a ways up River Road. I'd say this area is Seneca or Dawsonville. Further up the road about 5 miles to the northwest is an incorporated town of Poolesville. We did a wine tasting, and the wines were all delicious. The staff was very nice and helpful determining the different types of wines we were drinking. We walked around the property. There were large tires implanted in the ground, which we climbed on. Overall, this was a cool place, and I'd be happy to come back. read more

This is a small winery with a family vibes. I loved the animal interaction at the entrance and the small variety between dessert and meats and cheeses. The non-alcoholic drink is very good and able to taste all the fruits. read more

I realized I have visited this winery a bit more often than I had in the past. Within a month, I came with a few friends to have some pie (Dini's Divine Pie - flavor: Peach) and try one of their non-alcoholic wines, well at the time, we didn't know they had that. One of my friends tasted it and shared how good it was, so we all tasted it too and ended up sharing a bottle. The wine we got was called L'antidote. It is now my new favorite wine, besides their Rosé. We just chilled and chatted. I have yet to try their gelato and keep forgetting to get at least one to try it. I followed up a few days after that visit by checking out a local band called Justin Trawick and The Common Good, that put on a great show one weekend. On that visit, I did not get anything and was only there for the live music. The owner was in the house, ah barn, and shared that it was shows like this that helps with the upkeep of their barn (cool share). I'm sure I will be back here soon for something. read more

I learned about Rockland Farms winery through an event at Fadensonnen, where I tasted their hybrid wine, a Chambourcin and their expression was to make it a sparkling in the traditional method. I was floored at how much I loved it. For my friend's birthday, we decided to celebrate it at Rockland Farm since a lot of them live in the DC northern Virginia area. It was a decent halfway point for us. I live in Baltimore city and it took me about an hour and a half to get there. We visited towards the end of January and it felt like a magical winter wonderland as they were still a lot of snow. It's in Montgomery County but it's in a farm area and it's actually a state protected area. Greg and Anna are the owners of the farm and they definitely live the farm life, they've had to adjust with Covid. They no longer butcher their own animals, but they still sell a lot of their meats and then they have two wine makers. Chris Ahn, is a wine maker there and he hooked us up along with Greg. While we were waiting for my friends to arrive, he gave us a sampling of the medley, which is the Chambourcin sparkling, and then Chris took us on a TOUR!! I love nerding out and taking tours and asking questions and learning about the process because I can see the passion in the wine makers. Kris was so generous and let us taste some barrel wine samples because they are a mid Atlantic New World wine maker, they can use a lot of grapes that we have in the area. They have a cab franc, and a blaufrankish. They make a lot of different wines here and specifically focus on sustainability and hybrid graves because it's the future. They have a tasting room on the main floor and they have an upstairs where you can have events, weddings, etc. there were about nine of us there so we went upstairs and Anna had set up the table for us and honestly the aesthetic is so beautiful. Anna does these really beautiful flower arrangements. This is a low interventional winery meaning they use native yeast. They don't add any yeast to their wine and let the grapes really do their own thing and you can tell as former farmers they really care about the Earth and the product that they're putting out. You can buy their wines online, but I would definitely go pay them a visit. They did have a food truck on site. It was a little bit expensive and the staff was not friendly at the food truck, but that's not part of Rockland. It's very cool to see a really good winery in the state of Maryland and I picked up a bottle of their cab franc, it was so delicious read more

*Updated Review* Still a 5 star rating for me! Was here over the weekend to celebrate a milestone birthday for my cousin. Greg and the team did an amazing job accommodating the large party! Most folks in the group hadn't been here before and they were impressed with the winery and the service and most importantly, the wine! We enjoyed the pizzas and the Anna Rose! Woot! Thank you Rocklands for the hospitality. Happy Holidays!! read more

We came here because we love holistic farming, wine, good food, and good times. To be transparent, I do not think wine from this area is anywhere close to wine from the West Coast, Europe, or South America (Argentina and Chile). This is a working farm that only opens to the public on the weekends. The day we went, they had an Argentine barbecue (called a churrasco) vendor whose food was amazing. There is plenty of seating, even though you can't make a reservation (unless you are having a big party or something). Because it's a working farm, the views are not as beautiful as those at other wineries. Still, the low-intervention wines were great compared to the others in the area we have tried. The service was great, and we had a very nice time just hanging out, sipping on some wine, and eating Argentine meat and sausages. They also had a playground for the kids. Definitely a place to come with friends just to relax and have a nice afternoon. read more

I had such a lovely Sunday afternoon here! This winery has officially made it to my list of top wineries in the area. The atmosphere was absolutely perfect for a crisp fall day -- scenic views, cozy vibes, and the kind of peaceful charm that makes you want to stay awhile. Shoutout to Tye, who was so knowledgeable and welcoming. She got me to enjoy a Chardonnay blend -- which I never thought I'd say because I usually don't prefer Chardonnay! I'll definitely be back next time! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxed, beautiful, and genuinely warm winery visit. read more

I visited this winery with a group of friends for a birthday the weekend before Thanksgiving. We had a great time! I got a flight of wine which consisted of: 2021 Montevideo (bold red), 2021 Fieldwork (white), and a sparkling rose. They were all great. It was hard to choose which was one was my favorite. I'm normally not too keen on bold reds. I'm still baby stepping into bolder reds but this was a great first step! There are heat lamps provided throughout the landscape as well as a heated dining area but overall I can't wait to visit again when it's warmer outside. I would like to walk around the property more. read more

Fun and nice staff. Winery has nice scenery for taking pictures and nice fire pits outside to keep you warm. They have good spots inside as well. The wine is good. I got a wine flight with two reds and white. All were good and the staff will make helpful suggestions if your unsure. Food they had a food truck that was serving topas and paella. I got the seafood paella it was flavorful and tasty. Was well balanced and a nice amount of spice to savory. For the price I thought it was small but not a big deal. Overall a great experience. read more

This is such a beautiful winery that I'd recommend coming to. The staff members are incredibly friendly. We had one icon that was a retired lawyer who was super helpful in helping my friend and I figure out the wines we wanted. She informed us that they specialize primarily in dry wines and let us try a couple before deciding what we wanted for our flight. A flight of 3 wines cost about 18 which is reasonably priced. The cider was not my favorite but my friend did enjoy it. I liked the red wine suggested and the white wine we ordered was also pretty good. Another plus is they have food trucks nearby and some cheese, crackers, and hummus you can purchase. It can get a little crowded but my friends and I were able to find a nice spot to sit outside. read more

This is a nice place to chill with friends and try new wine. I visited during the winter and there is heated seating inside the upstairs barn and there is seating outside next to fire pits and heating lamps. The staff was very friendly and explained all the wine options. I thought the flight of wine was very reasonable, which had 3 options for $18. There were also nice food options, we ordered from the food truck outside and a charcuterie board that the winery puts together read more

Rocklands Farm Winery - Wine flights - CSA Near Me - Poolesville, Maryland

BLUF: Nice venue in the MD countryside not too far from suburbia & the city. A bit pricey for tasting flights. If the pours were for actual flights & not just tasting, I'd give this place a full five stars. Staff were helpful, attentive, polite. _ood choices limited, but the pizza from the truck smelled & looked good. Pie vendor onsite was pricey but their pies sold well...nice people, too! Wines were decent. For me, better reds than whites but sparkling was refreshing on a super hot day. Seating indoors & out. Umbrella tables. When it gets busy on the weekends, not enough seating & be aware for those who may have difficulty walking on uneven surfaces, a lot of the property is on a hill, grassy areas, or gravely paths. A nice afternoon spent with friends. Sipping wines, enjoying a picnic, and catching up. Rocklands is a great venue for this & it looks like a great place to do this in the evening, too. They have lighted areas close to the barn. If you're a local, this seems like a great place to hang out often. If you're outside the immediate area, it was worth an hour's drive. Just driving out to the farm is a beautiful experience. Be warned, as you enter the property, there are very narrow roads, so drive carefully! Enjoy good times at this quaint little winery! read more

Cute farm and winery. Unfortunately wine is below par but the beer might be better. The food trucks had pretty good options which might rotate. A good spot for a festive day out to enjoy some nature. The servers at the tastings stations were helpful and patient. read more

Lovely day at Rockland Winery! Beautiful countryside, great wine and charcuterie in a rustic atmosphere, food truck and firepits.

A friend wanted to try out Rocklands and we drove out there on a Sunday in February. We started out with a tasting and really enjoyed the wines but it was very sloooooooooow. There was only one staff member doing the tastings and she was handling almost 12 guests at once. It would have been great to have another staff member there to help out and keep the pace going. While the pours were generous and the wine was good, it was definitely the longest tasting I've done. It was an absolutely gorgeous day and I had packed us a Trader Joe's feast so we grabbed a table outside and some wines by the glass and sat for a few hours and it was glorious. It's a nice sized property with a variety of seating and they also have cheese, charcuterie, chips, etc. to buy if you didn't bring your own snacks. The only bummer was that I couldn't bring my pup but we did see the winery cat wandering about so I guess that makes sense! read more

Hidden gem! We finally stopped by Rocklands Farm Winery, which is secluded and spacious in the middle of Maryland's MoCo. There is ample parking, and lots of indoor/outdoor seating. We made a reservation on a fall Saturday, but it was so slow that they let us stay much longer than our reserved time. There are lots of wine options: tours, flights, bottles (affordable @ as low as $25). The wine flavors vary and you'll very likely find what suits your palate. There are also good options, and when we were there it was Mediterranean. And of course, we met Paws, the resident cat that immediately took to me and hubby and stayed with us for almost half an hour -- he is also so respectful and gets social cues for when we wanted to stretch a little/moved to other customers. The staff was super helpful with recommendations and general info/directions on the winery. Definitely stop by and make it a trip for family, friends, lovers. Also kids friendly! read more

We LOVE Rockland Farms and while I'd been meaning to write a review for awhile, our most recent visit last weekend in the November 70 degree temps with the GORGEOUS foliage just really added to our love! I even joined the wine club so we're already excited about going to collect our bottles in a few weeks (I got a follow up post card which was such a cute touch thanking me for joining!)! Their wine is very tasty and low intervention, which I really like. I always get a glass of their cider when in season- it switches up regularly! So far the blackberry was my favorite. My favorite drinking wine there is the Anna's Rose. The setting is beautiful and I do appreciate the "adults only" space. Not that I don't love kids, I just don't often love drinking with them. Ya know? I do wish we could bring the pup but I totally get it as there are other animals that live there (hi, Paws- the cutest tuxedo kitty!). Maybe one day they can do a dog day ;-) They have a great selection of charcuterie items available and there is always a darn good food truck parked and ready to go. You can also bring outside food if you wish (and they were kind enough to hold our cake in their fridge for us!). Just really quality people that work there, quality wine they serve and a beautiful location. TIP: get there right when they open if you want to have your pick of spots- they fill up QUICK! read more

It is SUCH a quintessential hidden gem! Very friendly staff and beautiful farm with delicious wines. All the workers were very knowledgeable and passionate about wine and winemaking. All the wines fully ferment and thus are all dry wines. There are few wines that are more fruity and give a perception of sweetness but do not actually contain any residual sugar! Private tours are available on weekends for free! :) read more

Lovely winery in Montgomery County, MD! Friendly staff, beautiful grounds, and delicious unique wines. We stopped by yesterday to enjoy a bottle of orange wine. The process of keeping the skins on white grapes during winemaking process similar to how red wine is made. We felt right at home during our visit. read more

I first came here cause of a Yelp event and made it my business to come here again. 1. The gauchito adds an extra layer of awesomeness to this place as their meat is very good. 2. Wine is good, not the best, but for the experience it is great 3. Service: amazing. Nicest people ever 4. Kid friendly 5. Live music on Friday, but I was unlucky to come during the week where some group of people play stringed instruments together. They are a clique and don't have any intent to perform for anyone or welcomes it, which was a bummer as live music would have been great. Check their calendar and avoid the week like this. Go when there is a real band performing read more

Cute date spot - and right next to Homestead Farms. Note that it is first-come first-serve, so it can be tricky to get a table but they have quite a slew of picnic tables for bigger groups to sit at. Their wine is really good and that it has the right amount of floral and fuzziness to it, which I happen to really like, especially in the summer. They also have a small selection of fresh meats available for purchase, which is great because Rocklands farm is right next to Homestead Farms. You could get all your vegetables at Homestead Farms and then pop over to the spot for some meats if you wanted to do a cute cooking/date night in. read more

Walked in without a reservation on a Saturday and were able to get a picnic table outside. The parking lot was extremely full and people were everywhere from the lawn, outdoor tables, tent and indoors. I knew this place had to be good and it was amazing! WINE: 7th Anniversary Library Flight $18 2016 Hillside: Petit Verdot Blend 2017 Sandstone: Cabernet Franc - this was my favorite but they were all very good and we bought a bottle to enjoy at home later 2016 Montevideo: Robust Red Blend Endless Summer Flight $12 2019 Springhouse: Chardonnel Blend 2019 Partnership Rose: Dry Berry-Apple Cider - slightly carbonated but dry and very unique 2019 Farmhouse: Whole-Cluster Chambourcin FOOD: They had food trucks and we opted for the pizza truck which was really delicious. There was quite a long line so definitely be prepared to wait awhile for your pizza since they're made to order. They offer a huge variety of white, rose, red and craft ciders. They also have freezer cases full of food from their farm. read more

Rocklands Farm Winery was a super cool little stop in the Maryland wine circuit. The tasting room is a neat cellar type building with ample bar space. They had a food truck on my stop, which was fun, but the stars here are the wines and the servers. Fantastic people made this visit an absolute treat, but I LOVED several of the wine offerings, including the Montevideo, Bruner, and Albariño. read more

We stopped by Rockland Farm Winery after a morning of blueberry picking next door and it was such a wonderful respite from all of our hard work! As soon as we stepped out into the parking lot we were greeted with the smell of wood-fired pizzas and an Argentinian grill master. And of course my daughter only had eyes for the gelato cart with were manned by two super-friendly people who allowed us to try their handmade frozen treats in flavors like strawberry, ginger chocolate, coffee, and pistachio (yes, we got all of them..it was hot outside!). For the grown ups we got a bottle of their natural wine, some cured meats, raw cheeses, and crackers. The workers in the farmhouse were super friendly and even gave us a cheeseboard so we wouldn't be eating out of plastic packages like savages. The views were wonderful and there was lots of different areas for us to spread out in the shade and for the kids to run around. I'd love to sit down for a full tasting and get the whole experience but I'll save that for when I don't have a one year old glued to my hip. Overall, this was such a wonderful way to spend the day just thirty minutes away from DC! read more

Rocklands is great for the atmosphere. I haven't been in a while but I only give it 4 stars because of accessibility and I'm not a huge fan of their wine offerings. If you're into white wines and dry wines, you'll enjoy it - but if you're into sweet wines, Windridge May be a better fit. The last time I went, it was perfect because it was COVID and it was during the week and nobody had really emerged so I'll update this review as I plan to return over the next couple weeks. Lots of areas of kids to just go wild and the drive there is beautiful!!!! They always have a good food truck feature on the weekends too. Definitely worth the visit for family or friends. For anyone in the local area - it is a must for the agri tourism aspect - between Rocklands and Butler's Orchard - these locations are just MoCo gems that must be in your list. read more

This winery is so cute, especially in the fall. The service is really great and every person that works here is super friendly.

The staff is really friendly. The scenery was wonderful; set on an old farm. Lots of outdoor seating and calm breezes. They offer an array of wines-- Full bottles, glasses, and flights.

Farmhouse- whole cluster Chamborcine 3/5 Fall flight 1. Graze -- grunter veltliner 2/5 2. Hillside -- red blend 3.5/5 3. Sandstone - Cabernet franc 3.75/5 Overall a pleasant experience. I would return for a targeted selection and a larger picnic basket. We went inside after and purchased two bottles of wine. Our faves - Anna rose and the Sauvignon blanc! read more

Beautiful farm, and one of the few wonderful places you can still go during the pandemic. I only give a 3 star rating though because none of us really loved any of the wines. I know this is very subjective, but we tried very many of them and none were very likeable or smooth. Also, there was a few trucks/stands, but food at the pizza place took almost an hour and a half. Adding a few more options would be good. read more

Rocklands Farm Winery is a family owned establishment where staff treats you like family, as they are very deliberate, honest, and take their time when explaining the different types of wines the farm vineyards produce.

Awesome facility! read more

The food truck is a business that is not owned by the farm. You can walk into the building and just look around. The employees are usually behind the counters. The service was polite, helpful, informative, and friendly. When you make a purchase, you can provide them with an email address. I received a $10 discount on any purchase through my email! Nice! You can explore the 2nd floor of the building and the grounds of the farm on your own. Stay out of the areas marked, "employees only" and crop areas. This is a small family vineyard with a variety of activities and products that make for a great day of relaxing fun. So, give them a visit whenever you feel the need for some calmness and relaxation. read more

Under an hour drive from Washington, D.C. is one of Montgomery County's earliest wineries. A sustainable farm first, they make wine using ingredients from Maryland and the Mid-Atlantic. My wife, five-year-old daughter and I went on a Saturday afternoon and had a blast. Here's our experinece: 1) Story: It's family-owned and on a historic farm with the 1870 farmhouse preserved. They are about low-intervention wines and using ingredients natural to Maryland. They also sell grass-fed meats and organize a CSA. The people behind the winery are very passionate. 2) Space: It's a big property with indoor seating and lots of outdoor seating along the creek, pond and throughout the grassy areas. There's even a family-friendly section away from the other sections with giant tires set up for kids to play on. Our daughter loved it! Pro-tip: Go to the second floor above the tastings for a beautiful view of the property. 3) Wine: It's $25 per tasting, which is a little steep, but it's a more in-depth experience about the wines with one ounce pours. We tried seven wines and each was different and well made. 4) Food: They sell snacks, popsicles, Green Almond Pantry hummus, etc. and have two food trucks on the weekend, including a wood-oven pizza truck that's excellent. If you love wine, head to Rocklands. It's a space families and people without kids would enjoy together! read more

Took us about 45 minutes from DC. The grounds were beautiful. Super quaint farm, market, and lots of places to sit on benches, tables, shaded spots, or to setup your own space under a tree. Bathrooms clean. It's COVID-19, so there was lots of hand sanitizer. Masks were required in common spaces, and they were not doing traditional tastings. Just wines by the glass and bottle, I believe. We got the rose and Pinot Grigio. Snacks available inside and they gave out complementary water, which was awesome. Shoutout to the staff who was super knowledgeable about the wine, and very friendly. Theresa was personable and lovely. We came @2pm and stayed till about 5. Brought our own food. We were able to social distance ourselves, walk around a bit, and enjoy a relaxing afternoon at Rocklands! read more

Rocklands Farm Winery has wonderful wine tastIngs. The wines were outstanding and we tasted three white wines and three reds for $14.00. Our wine expert, Alise, was both fun and knowledgeable about the various wines and how they were aged. Most of the grapes were grown in Montgomery County, Maryland or local vineyards. The location is close by, off River Road and has a rustic farm decor. They also sell meat butchered locally. They have seating indoors and outside on their large farm. We sat indoors, close to our favorite food chef, Alejandro, who caters from-The Tapas and Paella Place. Chef Alejandro and his assistant, Chari who helped to make our dining experience a delight. We enjoyed a bottle of our favorite wine with our meal. The paella is amazing and filled with mussels, tender chicken, shrimp, and chorizo sausage. It is the best paella I have ever eaten. We had 3 servings and took one to go. The garlic shrimp was delicious. We soaked up the sauce with Italian bread. The chef and his partner cater to your every need. They are talented, down to earth, and so much fun. Not to mention their amazing food. The Winery has music and other special activities on holidays and weekends. We really enjoyed our time at Rocklands Winery and will return there soon. I hope to see you there. read more

Came here after a visit to Homestead farm. Cute winery! The downsides inside is air conditioned and there are a bunch of outdoor seating options. You can bring your own food or purchase charcuterie supplies there or food from the food truck. The food truck had amazing BBQ and was restaurant priced. Charcuterie supplies was a bit pricy. They have non-alcoholic options too. The bathrooms were great but not accessible (stairs & super small) The walkways were also not paved. When we were there it was busy and not super fast but we weren't in a rush! Seems LGBTQ friendly-ish. read more
