Live music, beautiful views, friendly people, and great wine!!! What else could you ask for? This vineyard is a whole vibe. If you're in the area, be sure to add the Willowcroft Farm to your place to visit.

My group of 24 called this vineyard last minute to salvage a horrible experience we just had at Stone Tower. They accepted us with open arms. Smiles and such hospitality. The wine was good and the views were nice and relaxing. We ordered a good amount of food and everything we had tasted yummy. I will be returning and recommending others visit. Great customer service goes a long way. They really knew a lot about the wines and made sure we all had a great experience.

This winery is amazing! The qualify is all top notch and the service is great. My wife and I came here with my best man before my wife and it's flight from Dulles to London for our honeymoon. BIt's a lot better and less busy than Stone Tower where They have a good tasting menu for wine. They even gave us the extras two wines for free. This winery is probably is best one we've been to. We'll be back but there are also many others to try out here as it was our first time at a Virginia winery.

I love how simple and intimate this winery is. They are doing tastings, flights, and entire bottles which is great considering most wineries are only allowing guests to buy entire bottles of wine. They are enforcing social distancing in the space, but there is so much outside seating it's easy to do that. There is also a beautiful view (as you can see in my photo) that you can take in while you're enjoying your wine. I did a tasting of three wines and all three were very delicious. They have a large wine tasting list and Im excited to go back and try more the next time I'm in Purcellville.

Stopped in last Saturday for my first visit to Willowcroft. I had high expectations based on reading the previous Yelp reviews. And Willowcroft delivered! A light drizzle was falling as I walked in about 2:00 pm. The tasting room is located in a weathered, dilapidated-looking barn. A couple of young ladies walked in at the same time - our wine pourer Steve put us in the same tasting group and proceeded to pour. Since it was Easter weekend - the pourers were wearing bunny ears. Steve is probably in his sixties - so this balding guy with a pair of bunny ears pouring wine was somewhat comical. The wines: - 2007 Chardonnay Reserve: Light, crisp, and delicious with a slight hint of Oak. Would be excellent chilled and served on a hot summer day. - 2006 Cabernet Blanc: Very tasty - almost the color of a light blush - but made with Cabernet Sauvignon grapes - the skins are left in the wine one day to start to give it a tint - but then they are removed. - 2004 Merlot: I can't really articulate what is I did not like about this wine - it wasn't horrible - just not my thing - it was the only wine I tasted that did not resonate with me. - 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon: Smooth with berry notes - would go well with lots of red meat! Fabulous! - Petit Verdot (No Vintage): Made from different batches of wine from different years - so no vintage is assigned to the wine. I'm a big fan of Petit Verdot - and this was one was a doozy. Would go well with red meats, pizza, spicy dishes, and cigars. I ended up buying a bottle of the 2007 Chardonnay Reserve and the Petit Verdot. Excellent winery! I will be back again, again, and again...

Who need just one bottle?

Definitely worth the drive for those who persevere all the way down Mt. Gilead Road. After that, save wear and tear on your car and look for their wines in stores. Willowcroft's tasting room is located back in the woods in a rustic barn (HEATED, thank goodness). When we visited, it was overcast and snowing, but on a nice day, there is a nice view from the outside picnic tables. Indoors, there isn't much seating so it won't be a "happening place" with live music like some of the other Loudon vineyards. Willowcroft is the oldest winery in Loudon County (1984) and their wines show their experience. I usually prefer red wines to white, but I ended up bringing home a bottle of their 2011 Harmony - a well-balanced crisp white that was not too dry. I have purchased their red wines in the past including the 2011 Chambourcin, but I never had it warmed with mulling spices. Yum! I could have purchased one bottle of everything I tasted, however I will look for their wines in our local grocery stores and restaurants. Virginia wine fans should have at least one bottle of Willowcroft wine in their collection.

What a lovely winery for a relaxed afternoon in the countryside. Several friends and I were in Leesburg for a girls' weekend and we found Willowcroft by chance on a map after visiting another local vineyard. As you approach, the dirt road through the woods opens up to a clearing with a well-maintained Civil War-era barn and a gorgeous view of the mountains. We were immediately greeted by a very friendly dog who lives on the grounds, as well as the winery's mascot Flint, an incredibly sweet polydactyl barn cat who was half asleep in the sun. The staff is absolutely fabulous. They are so kind and welcoming, enthusiastic about what they do, and will bend over backwards to make sure you have a great experience. They truly made the visit special. The barn is beautiful, and would make for a great event venue. There are fairy lights strewn through the rafters, and delicate wrought iron tables and chairs on the balcony. Each tasting room has a unique feel, with the upstairs one having plush furniture and quaint country decor, while the downstairs feels much more like a wine cellar. The air conditioning wasn't working in main tasting room upstairs, but we still took a look around and learned about the different wines. The downstairs tasting room has all of their bottled wines as wells as a variety of cheeses, crackers, chocolate, and other snacks for sale. You are welcome to purchase bottles to enjoy on the grounds (averaging around $25), or you can also order any wine by the glass (around $8), or as part of a flight ($10). Several of us ordered "Flint's Flight," which included half glasses of any three wines, whereas one member of our party did a tasting flight of seven or eight red wines. I had the Seyval, Riesling Muscat-Ottonel, and the Albarino and purchased a bottle of the Vidal Blanc, and the were all delicious; so light, crisp, and fruity, and perfect for a warm summer day on the lawn. We would have been happy to stay all day if it weren't for some other patrons who unfortunately had far too much to drink and made such an embarrassing scene that many members of their group eventually abandoned them there. After asking them if they'd be willing to turn down their boombox, which was loud enough that they had to scream at each other and 20 yards away my group couldn't have a conversation, they hurled insults and threats of physical violence at us, and after their friends left them, each other. I pity their Uber driver and any staff who had to deal with them!

Beautiful location with plenty of shaded and private outdoor sitting space, doggie friendly, and tasty unusual varietals among their wines! Also - very nice restrooms :)

My wife, daughter and I came across Willowcroft Farm while driving around random back roads in Loudon County on an unusually warm November Saturday. Their farm has lovely vistas looking out over a valley with distant mountains providing several nice spots to enjoy their wine outdoors. We wondered into their barn that houses among other things the tasting room. The tasting room has a long bar to belly up to to try any seven of their wines for $10. The folks working behind the bar were very pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable on their product. I was the DD and didn't partake but the ladies enjoyed a variety of white and reds. Their fav was the Traminette of which we bought a bottle of to take home with us. All in all a pleasant hour spent on the Catoctin Ridge.

This is not your 'typical' Loudoun vineyard. Willowcroft is the oldest winery in Loudoun county, so the focus is on wine vice entertainment. While they have crowds, the narrow dirt road pretty much guarantees it will only attract people willing to go 'out of the way' to get their booze. The winery is set in a Civil War era barn, and has a farm adjacent to it. So if you're looking for someplace that screams 'authentic' and 'rustic', this is the place. $10 tasting (but free with VA wine pass). The wine roster is HUGE. Apparently the wine maker/owner likes to experiment, so the variety is astounding for a smaller winery. You can't possibly do the entire roster, so instead you pick your own flight. That said, I found most of the wines to be crowd pleasers. Nothing bad, but nothing to knock your socks off. The one possible exception was the velvety $35 Assemblage Select, which was nice but still overpriced. The second tier was occupied by the Cab Sav and Petit Verdot, which weren't bad. I admit though; I did buy a bottle of the $20 Fitzrada red, if only because of the price, and I don't always want to open an expensive wine with my pizza!

Flights that you can bring outdoors and a great view of the mountains!

This was an extremely busy day. Everyone had the same idea because it was nice outside. The service was also pretty good for how busy it was. The staff was so nice!! All very knowledgeable about the wine and even let me sample some of the wine (Petit Manseng and Port) that wasn't on their menu and that I could only buy a bottle of. They had my favorite wine (Petit Manseng) but somehow I ended up loving the 2024 Sauvignon Blanc Reserve. I even ordered a glass of it after my tasting. It was light, smooth, and had a hit of guava taste to it. Very refreshing. Loved my pizza too! I was stuck between getting a pizza or their smash burger, but happy I chose the pizza. The brownie I got was pretty good too and apparently it was gluten free. The property is pet family friendly. I think the 21+ side looks the best and has better views as well.

It was a Monday, so she decided to bring us to one of the few wineries that were open for wine tasting. Formerly a cattle ranch, this three generation 300-acre estate is a family-owned winery. I discovered that Virgina was the first state to start producing wine since 1607. The estate is beautiful with a large wine tasting area and massive patio to enjoy with their fine wines and offer a diversified menu to dine on. Our sommelier was friendly and detailed with our tasting. I ended up purchasing a few bottles to enjoy and one gift bottle for our host. I would put Stone Tower Winery on your list of wineries to visit when you are in Leesburg VA.

We came here first before heading to brunch and a second winery, and honestly, it set the tone for the entire day. The grounds are absolutely beautiful--peaceful, scenic, and everything you want when you're trying to escape the city for a bit. The wine selection is solid, and everything we tried was smooth, well-balanced, and easy to enjoy with friends. It's the kind of place where you can actually relax, take your time, and be present. What I love most about Greenhill is the vibe--it feels elevated without being pretentious. Just good wine, great views, and the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to stay a little longer. If you're planning a Middleburg wine day, start here. You won't regret it.

It would be a beautiful place to visit in warmer months, but on that chilly day, the tasting room was quite cozy with inviting wood accents and local decor surrounding the bar and tables. I especially enjoyed the artwork by a couple local artists and bought some printed art cards on the way out. Two of our group did a wine tasting while the rest of us ordered individual glasses at the bar. I didn't catch the name of the person who served us, but she was very informative and friendly. My chenin blanc was crisp and satisfying. It was later in the day on a weekday, so the place was quiet and relaxed. If we had stayed longer, I would've been interested in their mezze menu. I would love to come back and explore the vineyard more. Much appreciated their hospitality!
