The wine tasting was nice. With large parties you are given a flight to try. No need to stand in the tasting room. I liked several of the flavors. After the tasting we took a walk around the grounds taking in all the animals. Because it was winter, we didn't spend a lot of time in the lavender fields. We did however visit the lavender shop. I purchased a lavender honey spot and some delightful lemon crunch lavender ice cream. Overall staff were friendly. I would recommend this business for anyone in the area or visiting massanutten.

You really get to enjoy an immersive, interactive experience on the farm. There is something for everyone, from interactive gardens and live animals. The best for a cute little DIY wine tasting. You can bring your own charcuterie platters, which is what we did to go along with our tastings. They have tasting room called the Purple Wolf Vineyard where you can purchase your portable tastings, wine, beer and slushy flights . I would definitely return again, great place to host a cute birthday event, with your friends. They also have a really nice gift shop as well.

The workers are very nice and willing to help find the right wine for you. I ordered the peach mango wine slushy, but I actually preferred the blueberry one more! I think the blueberry one was made with their dessert wine, so that makes sense. It was $14 for a large "to-go" cup slushy (not really meant to be taken to-go haha). My recommendation is to just go for the large instead of the $9 small sized slushy...Why Not ;) So glad I came here and would probably come back once I finally hit up all of the other wineries in Harrisonburg!

We stopped by Castle Vineyards on a Saturday evening, excited that they were open late (until 7PM)…read more The interior had rustic farmhouse decor, with a bar to order at and plenty of seating. They offered both tastings and flights, but my friend and I both chose a glass of Rosé. The staff member had described it as crisp and dry, but it was still a bit too sweet for my preference - not terrible though. We sat on the rocking chairs outside and admired the nice view of green fields. I think they were setting up for a private event in the meantime, because people kept showing up with their own trays of food, and a whole bunch of children and dogs. Overall, we liked the ambiance here but the wine wasn't especially memorable and service was lukewarm.

This place is serene and extremely peaceful and I could probably just sit outside and take everything in for hours. There are a few boardgames to play as well. There aren't a lot of seating inside, but during the daytime, the place was very laid back and not overcrowded. There are no marked parking spaces, but people typically park on the grass and there is ample space for so many cars. The interior of the main building was very simple and "bare bones" but had a homely charm to it and the lovely woman who served our flights was such a gentle, warm person who complemented the peacefulness of the place! My friend and I ended up buying our own bottles of wine and my fiance absolutely loved the Barren Ridge's Touriga wine that I got for him! Will definitely be back to bring him the next time around! Just a great place to take a step back and enjoy some wine!

We were specifically searching for a dog-friendly place we could bring the pups, and not only do they welcome the well-behaved fur babies but have one of their own too! Built with Jeffersonian architecture, the property is modern yet attractive and feels like you're visiting a historic property. There is a large event space, a spacious tasting room, and ample outdoor seating which is mostly shaded to enjoy even on a hot sunny day. My wife and I both enjoyed flights of wine and followed them with a glass of our favorites. The flights are served nicely and every pour is in its own glass, no reusing or cheap plastic cups here. Service was great with very nice staff. It was a peaceful outdoor experience and we really enjoyed just sitting and relaxing. I would absolutely come back!

It's a huge lodge, seating inside outside patio with upstairs and downstairs options. Everyone was super friendly and it had a locals only vibe, felt Tucker away and private.

This assortment had two whites and two reds--all of which earned gold medals at competitions. For lunch, we shared the grilled cheese with apple slices and the Eastwood salad, which included apples, blue cheese, nuts, and mixed greens. All were delightful. The tasting room has a warm vibe of a country gathering place with tables, a bar, and a stage. They also have outside seating. Their fermentation room has a glass wall that looks into the tasting room so you can see the tanks. Eastwood is located not far from Monticello and other wineries in the area. I recommend it as a definite stop on any wine outing.

We enjoyed our wine and people (and dog) watching. My favorites were the 2024 Viognier and the Woodland White. The 2024 Petit Manseng was good, but a bit tart, and the Artist White blend was too dry for my liking.
