Wine Tasting Samples

Two words: Wine Slushies!!! After the awesome experience I had at this place, I've definitely found my new favorite local winery! The Virginia Beach Winery has been on my list of places to visit for quite some time so to end my boyfriend's birthday weekend, we decided to stop in and do some wine tasting. As soon as we walked in, we noticed a few vendors located all throughout the winery and were told that they were having a small event that day, which I thought was pretty cool. I loved how open the winery was and they even had a few table games. After we looked around at most of the vendors, we headed to the bar to start our $5 wine tasting. We both were able to choose 6 wines to taste from a list of 15 dry and sweet wines. We tried to choose different wines so that we could essentially try them all! I must say, there wasn't one that I didn't enjoy! I'm not a huge fan of dry wines but even those tasted great. In the midst of our tasting, the wonderful staff let us try the wine slushies as well! OMG, they were perfection!!! I literally could not stop drinking the Seniorita flavor! It was fantastic! Overall, my first time at this winery was a 10/10! The staff was outstanding! They chatted with us about the perks of the wine club, gave us some insight on all of the wines and were very friendly. We did end up purchasing the Princess Anne Pomegranate Wine. I love how they host an array of different events every month. We plan on attending Bachata Thursdays as soon as possible! :)

Great wine with some awesome Latin dancing on Thursday. They have a class before the actual dance starts so you can practice what you learned. Easy for beginners or if your never danced before. Plenty of partying and they have outside food that comes in. Today was pull pork and salad. Maria is amazing. She is sweet funny and will help you with your tasting. Check it out.

Ever since my last time coming to this winery, I ensure that I stop here when I visit Virginia Beach. This visit was interesting because they moved. They're in a larger space, have more wine options, and expanded their services. Parking is a lot easier at this location as well. The wine tasting experience is a vibe all by itself. My friend and I each did nine sweet wine tastings and tried their two new slushies. They are on to something with the slushies. I bought bottles of wine and my friend purchased cups of the slushies. Lol. Again, it was an A+ experience

Recently bought wine for a family members birthday who lives in Chesapeake, and needed a delivery to be made at her house. Hands down the best online ordering and customer service from initial contact to delivery drop off to door. When I am back in the Chesapeake area I will be stopping in!

Interesting location and concept but I like what you've done here! Not a traditional scenic vine and scenic winery, it was interesting to find this spot located it what looks like it used to be or could have been a motel in a past life. Immediately upon entry we were greeted and id'd. Pops was a trooper and offered to toast it up with me on this wine tasting. Thank goodness for my good good girlfriend who tagged me in a FB post because she knew I was in the area. Promoting a free wine tasting, how could I resist?? In my mind, wine is meant to be consumed in a glass so we opted for the $3 souvenir glass instead of the little plastic shot glass. With a choice of six tastes you could chose from a wide variety of reds and whites, sweets and dries. Not a super sweet fan I can recommend the Moscato, the Red Moscato and the Witchduck. The Reisling was on the drier side and bit as sweet as you would expect but it was still worthy of a try. They do give you bread and oil to nibble on while you taste. The bread was kicks in nature but imo did not compliment the wine as it should. Hence, I'd forgo and save the extra space in your tummy for wine. Staff was friendly and gave tid bits of knowledge along the way with each pour. Parking is dusty as the spaces are not paved. There are not many but treats rotation is frequent so spaces free up quickly. All wines are under $20 which is a plus if you find more than one that speaks to you.

I fully admit - I'm a wine snob and I tend to turn my nose at urban wineries that tend to have a heavy focus on sweeter wines. That said, I really enjoyed this visit. First off, this place is HARD TO FIND. My GPS took me on the road behind it, and I had to wander around until I found a very un-assuming office-looking room along a row of other office-looking rooms. But once I got inside, the servers were very welcoming and as people trickled in it seemed everyone was having a good time. The tasting is free, which might help. I'd describe the wines as 'fun'. Nothing you'd keep in the cellar, but good for casual drinking. I didn't think I would get anything but ended up with a bottle of 'Surfside Strawberry'.

Very interesting and creative winery. Customer was awesome the whole we were there. Was nice to see pop up shows/ vendors available there. Nice to see products of their previous wine and sip night as well as their crafts nights. Love the facts that you can taste many different types of wines for free. They had frozen wines and hot wines as well. Love the different types of varieties options and let me say they were great options!. Wish they had more sittings. They had a back room but it wasn't enough for the crowd they had. Overall great experience.

Visited today as part of the soft opening for the new location. The new space is huge, and since we got there close to closing and it wasn't very busy, we easily found a table to sit down at. We split a (free) sampling, enjoyed wine slushes, and we purchased a bottle before we left. Staff were very friendly. They let us know that we are welcome to bring our own food in to eat inside. (There's also an Italian kitchen across the shopping center that would be convenient to order food from.) They also sell their wine slushes to go!

Free Wine Tasting...Weekly - cheers to that! I visited this winery once and my first time was super! Free wine tasting is offered Thursday, Friday and Saturday afternoons into the evening. Maybe on Sunday's too, but you should call to double check. But those other days - go for it! This winery has been open for at least three months now, and the free wine tastings have been offered ever since! Talk about getting their name out there with FREE wine - I'm all for this exposure! The wine options pretty much cover everything from dry to semi sweet to sweet! I cannot recall my favorite, but the wine is definitely homemade as the owner, Maria explained their process as we were blessed to be the only patrons in the winery at the time. I am not a wine specialist but I like quality everything and in my option - quality is here! The owners seem passionate about their craft as well too! The owners Maria and Josh have a Facebook page and they update it quite frequently and I love it! Check it out - very informative! The owners seem super down to Earth and they are definitely eager to grow their clientele. I have even been in talks of hosting a wine party here and Josh and Maria thoroughly explained the process from start to finish. They are young business owners, but I am sold on their vision - they are destined for greatness. If you visit during the free wine tasting be mindful because this spot can fill up quickly, because it's not a huge establish. It's a cozy/make yourself at home type of vibe here. But luckily the day we visited, there were only two ladies ahead of us. As a result, Josh made our tasting super interesting by answering our many questions and interacting with us as we sampled each of the wines. So they give you an option to sample four (per person) of the maybe 10 wine selections. But the key is to go with a friend or two and you all sample them all by sharing a taste or two among yourselves. But if you don't want to drink after each other just visit on another day to sample the wines you didn't get to sample the afternoon before. Again, I visited during the month of December and it was decorated beautifully with Christmas decor. Also at the time, cute holiday glasses were for sale and I bought a red and green glass... and you can very well bring them back for future tastings instead of using the plastic cups they provide at no cost. I think we were offered crackers or cheese too...but we opted out. The wines are under $20 and I am sure you will find something to tickle your fancy. But if not for you, a friend! I purchase the apple wine (seasonal I believe) and it was already chilled. Super yummy! Parking is available right in front of the door - a gravel parking lot. It's super small, but if you get there ahead of the crowd no worries. The winery is minutes from I264 and it's not too hard to find, but you definitely want to keep a close eye on the location cause one could very well miss it. Children are welcomed, but keep in mind this is still a winery business and you should watch your child/children at all times. Alongside wines for sale, wine accessories are available for purchase too. I am looking forward to returning super soon! Have fun and enjoy life :)

Amazing host! Polite and professionalism displayed the whole visit. Wish we lived closer. We'd visit more often. Slushy was my favorite on this hot day.

This is a cute little spot. I will say it was hard to find at night because it is behind a gas station in shopping strip, but at night it looks a little abandoned. It is a small shop, I had a reservation($6 to reserve a table of 4), and it is best to have a reservation. There were only three table with 2 to 4 chairs at each table. Now for the good stuff. They do free wine samples of 6 different wines (but is it really free if you pay for a reservation, it's still worth it in my opinion). They are small cups maybe one ounce each. The night I went, they only had 5 available so I was able to have a second of another one I liked; however, she said at times, they have 10+ you can sample from (dry or sweet of course). They change their samples every so often. All the wines are handcrafted. The wines that you sample are available for purchase. However, if you just want to buy wine, you don't need a reservation, you can go in and buy the wine. I hope they continue to grow their business. This has great potential!

Wine taste testing
D. S.

The atmosphere is great. The service is great. Love the selection of games. The wine tasting is fun with a group and it's great when you don't know which wine to purchase. We ordered a charcuterie board from Foodies next door. A purchase from Foodies got a percentage off the wine purchase. I love the other items sold like the wine slushy. Wine enthusiast, it is beyond the best thing you will ever have.

I can't wait for ours in Indian Land to open because tonight's dining was a WONDERFUL experience…read more While in town visiting family for the Labor Day weekend, they suggested this spot. Hubby and I were thrilled because one is opening near our home outside of Charlotte, NC. Make reservations! This place was packed and we quickly figured out why. Everything is so good. We didn't quite figure out the "lay of the land" but there appeared to be a designated place for tasting that was packed. We enjoyed looking at the "wine toys" while we waited for our table. There are sooooo many unique things that I can't wait to purchase from a location closer to us when it opens; traveling with glass didn't seem too smart. Our server was great and I wish I knew her name to shout her out. Ask to sample any wine you're curious about. And let me say... the sampling pours are more than just a sip. I was astonished! I chose the red flight as rendered. Everything was good. I'm not a fan of Spanish reds and should have substituted that one. Next time! They are so conscientious about food allergies and preferences that you can customize everything (except the jambalaya). I already knew before arriving (because I look at menus ahead of time) that I was getting the scallop and shrimp risotto, especially after I learned I could have it without the disgusting peas and asparagus (but with extra spinach.... I do love some veggies). It was AMAZING and will probably be the dish I always end up getting at the Indian Land, SC location when it opens. No room for dessert so you'll have to read my next review for that. 10/10

While out on a Wednesday evening, my daughter and I decided to stop by Cooper's for a quick wine…read moretasting, but the wait was far too long, so we ended up sitting at the bar and dining in. The bartender was very sweet and provided us with menus right away. Since I had a "Dine-In Only Bottle" available as a member, I ordered a bottle Cabernet Sauvignon, which is my absolute favorite. We also decided on the House-Made Meatballs (another favorite), the Crispy Barbacoa Arancini, which is a "featured" item, and the Classic Cheeseburger. While we waited, we chatted with others at the bar and since we all wanted to sample the Wine of the Month, the Blanc de Noirs, our bartender was able to provide us with a tasting, which we enjoyed. It took about 40 minutes for our food to arrive but everything tasted amazing, as always. The House-Made Meatballs never miss and the Crispy Barbacoa Arancini were amazing! My daughter enjoyed her Cheeseburger as well. Cooper's Hawk will forever be my one of favorite restaurants and I can't wait to return!!!

It was my wife's birthday, so we've wanted to try Heirloom for her celebration. I worked my way…read morethrough college as a waiter / bartender, so I notice things the average diner won't. Heirloom is a well-run establishment. When you see every employee completing tasks with every movement and the owner bussing tables plus talking with patrons, this is a service-oriented business. For my wife's birthday, the service was indeed excellent. The atmosphere is Southern chic. I caution you, don't try a Saturday Evening reservation by calling Friday night. Call early in the week to ensure a Saturday feast. Heirloom sources as much of its ingredients as possible from local farmers and fishermen. It was Happy Hour so I asked what was the "bar bourbon"? Our waitress, Candice, knew exactly what I meant and told me, Evan Williams. An Old Fashion made with Evan Williams for 8 bucks, Yes Ma'am to that. My wife enjoyed a glass of crisp pinot grigio with her meal. Candice service was impeccable the entire experience. We started with Crispy Mushrooms appetizer - awesome. Our entrees were very generous portions. My wife ordered the Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes, two large cakes with crispy squash fritters and succotash for the sides, old bay remoulade on the side for the crab cakes. Nothing but crab with very little binder. She loved the entire meal. I enjoyed the Honey Glazed Bone-In Pork Chop with bbq beans and potato salad for sides. The beans needed work, but the potato salad was excellent with big chucks of potato. The pork chop was star though. A huge two-bone affair grilled to perfection. I had to cut it in half and take one half home it was so large. Magnificent. We finished celebrating her birthday by sharing the S'mores Tart for dessert. Graham cracker crust with chocolate ganache layered on top, crowned with sea salt. A toasted marshmallow cream on the side with Happy Birthday written in chocolate on the plate. She was delighted. It was not overwhelming sweet. Fabulous with two cups of decaf coffee to finish. My wife enjoyed the whole experience and definitely wants to come back. She believes Heirloom was the best dining delight we've had in Virginia Beach. I certainly agree.

Heirloom is one of the 757s shining gems of restaurants. You get a fine dining style meal and…read moreservice, but in a mostly casual setting. The servers and staff are observant and focused on small details that really set Heirloom apart. I especially love the part of the dining room filled with lush hanging plants. We visit several times a year and are always impressed by the quality. We always order the She Crab soup and a Wedge Salad as appetizers to share. They are both so good, I'd probably request them as my last meal! The She Crab soup is absolute perfection, creamy and full of lump crab. I will not order She Crab soup anywhere else after trying theirs. The wedge has pickled onions, candied bacon, blue cheese and some kind of marinated or pickled tomato. Paired all together to make the perfect bite. We have tried a lot of the menu, it does rotate around seasonally, but there are some items that are consistent. The burger was absolutely decadent but not overwhelming. I usually order the "secret", not so secret Shrimp dinner that's not on the menu anymore. You get 6 of their amazing fried shrimp, a magical dipping sauce (cant' describe it!), and 2 sides. (see what's their seasonal sides!) Heirloom will remain one of our favorite places in the 757 to celebrate special occasions!

We have dined here many times in many different forms. We've attended special wine pairing dinners,…read moredate nights for two, day-time tastings, the yearly warehouse sale, as a guest of large parties, and as a host of large parties. Yiannis always gets it right no matter what is thrown at them. The optional chef's choice offering (similar to Japanese omakase) provides a relaxing, catered-to experience when decision fatigue is high. We love the subtle Greek twist on the dishes, particularly how well it works with the lamb lollipops. While the food is amazing, the incredible service is what keeps us returning. It is always impeccable, with knowledgeable servers and eager sommeliers, and Yiannis himself frequently stopping by. We were even treated to a tour of the kitchen on our first visit. It is this above and beyond attitude that always makes me recommend Yiannis.

I would like to preface this with the fact that we went on a Wednesday night so maybe their weekend…read moredining is better Food: For appetizers we got the mussels. The broth was flat and still had a wine taste to it. When I told the owner, he agreed that the wine taste was overpowering and told me they got a new chef who tried a new recipe and that they will go back to the old recipe. For entrees I got the lamb chops with risotto and she crab soup. The lamb was very tender but the flavor was lacking. It was also luke warm. The she crab soup was good but too salty. The owner also acknowledged that as well. The risotto was okay. Nothing special. My husband got the grilled bronzino and broccolini. I tried some and I liked the taste but he said it could have used more flavor. Broccolini was steamed and I wish they had grilled it instead. The bread pudding was the star of the entire meal. It was made of donuts. It was moist, sweet, and delicious. Drinks: We got a bottle of champagne and two cocktails. Drinks were all very good Service: This is probably why I'm giving them 4 stars instead of 3. The service was very good. First, they called me prior to my reservation and asked if they could pre-chill any wine or champagne for my husband's birthday and I was very appreciative of that. When we got there, our drinks came out a little slow but our waiter comped that immediately. Throughout the night, the owner checked in on us several times and that stood out to me. Overall I will come back once they fix some things with the new chef. Hopefully the food will get better

It has quickly become our favorite place to relax, enjoy great company, and discover new wines. We also hosted a private event here, and Mary and her team went above and beyond to make it special.

Even though the sandwich was delicious, it was not a grilled cheese so we were a bit disappointed. I was expecting a true grilled cheese with melty cheese and warm and crusty. This was a warmish sandwich with cheese and meat. We did see other menu items that looked delicious and I definitely want to go back and try. If you love wine...especially from Portugal then you have to try this place.

Viva Pizzeria Ristorante is located in the Red Mill Walk Shopping Center in Virginia Beach. I've…read morebeen past this area many times, but I hadn't been in this place until this visit. My visit here was on July 25, 2026. My mom wanted to get out, so we went through the area to see if something would click that she wanted to have or try for dinner. After going through the area, she said let's come here and we did. Coming up to the place, parking wasn't an issue since there was ample parking in the shopping center. From the outside, the place isn't hard to find with the bright colors and the place being at the southern end of the line of shops and businesses. Once we came inside, we were immediately greeted by the hostess and we were able to get a table right away. This was around 6:50 pm, and it wasn't overly busy, but was steady. The first things you see as you come in is the host stand is the bar area to the left, along with dine in seating and the pickup counter for takeout orders to the right. There are some booths over there too, but they were not in use during the time here on this visit. It took a few moments for our server to come to the table. I think they were a little understaffed for the volume of business here that evening. While waiting, we took some time to look over the menu. For those that keep track, they carry Pepsi products here. Once our server came over, he introduced himself and asked us what we wanted to have to drink. My mom did end up getting Pepsi, though I did stick to my usual water with lemon. After getting that order, he let us know that he would bring some complimentary bread and butter to the table. After the bread and butter came to the table, we were ready to order. I decided to order the Pepperoni Roll and my mom ordered the Steak & Cheese Stromboli. It was good to have that bread and butter as it took about 15 minutes or so for the food to come out, which wasn't too surprising given how busy they were at the time. Once the food came out, both entrees looked really good and they were both hot. The Pepperoni Roll was quite a treat for me as I don't normally do too many carbs. The outside of it was soft and easy to eat. The cheese and pepperoni inside it had a great texture and taste to it. My mom loved the Steak & Cheese Stromboli she got, along with the marinara sauce that came with the entrees. Both of us didn't finish the whole entree and we would have the rest at home the following day. Overall, this was a very good first visit here. The service and food were on point at this visit. I will note that there is a 4.5% surcharge for using a credit card for payment. Although the menu may look small, there is quite a bit to choose from here. If you're in the area and looking for a pizza or Italian food type of place that isn't a chain, this place is worth checking out.

This place use to be called primos and now it is called VIVA. Don't know the story behind the name…read morechange. We had made a reservation but seriously there was no one in there. Sunday night around 6pm. We were seated right away. Good service. Great food. I ate 1/2 my meal because it was a great size. Vodka chicken parm was really good and heating it up the next day was equally fantastic. Also got the raviolis with a creamy mushroom sauce. Yum yum yum

I went to the Tinis and Weenies night, which they hold every Wednesday, so this is what I'm rating…read moremy experience on! I saw the event advertised on social media and knew I had to check it out. It's gourmet specialty hot dogs paired with a wide selection of martinis, from classics like lemon drops and cosmos to more unique options like the pickletinis and caprese tinis. I went with a couple of friends around 5:45 and it was packed, but luckily people were leaving as we arrived so we were able to grab a spot. It was a little too chilly to sit outside, but they do have additional seating and I'd definitely sit out there when it's warmer. The food was great. I got the kimchi hot dog and loved it. The brioche bun really stood out, and the chili truffle oil fries were amazing. Everything comes out on a cute little tray, which was a nice touch. For my drink, I tried the pickletini. It was good, but definitely strong, especially if you're new to martinis. One friend got the caprese-tini, which was surprisingly good and came with a caprese skewer, so you get a little snack with it. My other friend got a dirty martini, which she enjoyed, and even as someone who isn't big on olives, I thought it was pretty good. Overall, we all had a great time and will definitely be back to try more of the menu!
