The most memorable experience with Little Washington Winery's owners, Carl and Donna, was the…read moreintimate Winemaker's Dinner where we spent hours chatting about wine and food, the quirkiness and beauty of Little Washington, and just life in general. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed every wine tasting experience, especially the Triple Threat with cheese and chocolate, and have gained an incredible amount of knowledge on wine, charcuterie building and combining with various foods! Didn't know grapes actually do not go with wine! Our suite was lovely and so comfortable it was difficult to leave, especially with serene views of the mountains! The variety of wine is countrywide, many from female winemakers, from locals and made at Little Washington Winery. We bought a case with a variety, including their Meritage Masterpiece "George". The weekend getaway had plenty of wine tastings in a very welcoming home with plenty of areas to kick up the feet and relax. Carl's dinner recommendation to The Blue Door was also appreciated as we enjoyed the romantic outdoor dinner with beautiful flavorful entrees (especially the lamb chop!) and desserts! Thank you Carl and Donna for an amazing experience we hope to have again with you in the future!

From the moment…read morewe arrived, it was clear that every detail had been thoughtfully planned with care and intention. Head Chef Aaron curated a beautiful five-course menu for us in advance, and every single course was exceptional. The flavors were perfectly balanced, creative, and comforting all at once -- each dish flowed seamlessly into the next and left us genuinely impressed. It was one of those meals where you pause, smile, and truly savor every bite. Pastry Chef Ebony not only created a custom anniversary cake for us -- which was absolutely delicious -- but she was also our server for the evening. Her attentiveness, warmth, and genuine care made our night feel even more special. She anticipated every need and added such a personal touch to the entire experience. We were also deeply touched by the personalized menu designed for our celebration, which read, "Happy Anniversary -- cheers to one." That simple yet thoughtful gesture meant so much to us. Sous Chef Diego and the entire team contributed to an atmosphere that felt warm, intimate, and welcoming. The ambiance was beautiful and private, and the complimentary sparkling wine was the perfect way to celebrate such an important milestone. This was our first anniversary -- the beginning of many more to come -- and Blue Rock made sure it was unforgettable. Every detail, every flavor, and every gesture reflected genuine care. We cannot recommend this place enough and are already looking forward to returning.

The events are fun and everyone is so very friendly. Three workers (one was the owner) came over to us during our tasting to chat with us and see how we were doing on our tasting and they were all so friendly and nice. The tasting room has a nice feel to it even with the soaring ceilings. They have a gas fireplace but sadly it wasn't going today even though it was a bit chilly in the room. Their dogs are sweet and roam around looking for a pet here and there. There is a refrigerator filled with meats and cheeses and some waters and juices for you to purchase. But alas, their wines are just not good. The two whites we tried today lacked any kind of flavor and the reds honestly bordered on vinegar. I could tell right away by the color and the smell of the cab franc that it was off and one sip proved that. I want to like this vineyard because they are so kind and they try so hard but they really need another winemaker.

Every time I visit the area from out of town, I do my best to check out different Virginia wineries but am continuously drawn to DuCard. I'm not a wine connoisseur but I do raise my pinkie when raising a glass. I do my best to try as many as I can - red and white, when not having to drive, just to experience the different wines available. All have been delicious and I always walk out with a few bottles. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, the ambiance is loose, open, inviting, and just a cool laid back vibe. There seems to be entertainment every time I've visited and nosh is available as well. Definitely put this place on your places to visit when in the area.

We always get a serving of bread, because you do not want to waste a drop of the broth from the butter chicken. The bread is also exceptional. The samosas are also great. Get all 3!

It was a chilly day and we followed the instructions to ring the bell when we were outside. Shout out to the folks here who provide the cute cat with a heated blanket to lay on during cold weather. Members of the staff quickly came by to let us in and we walked into a empty sitting area. To be fair, it was around 3:00pm on a Wednesday. The vibe inside is eclectic, homey, and comfortable. We grabbed a seat at a table near the fire. We had time to review menu. I picked a classic Whiskey Sour and my Mom got one of their warm whiskey cocktails. Both of us really enjoyed ours. We sipped and savored them and just enjoyed a bit of a respite from our road trip. We both got a bottle of their whiskey to take home with us. These aren't your standard whiskeys and they are definitely more expensive than what you'd probably get in the liquor store. We've been enjoying our purchases at home since our visit. Copper Fox is a nice stop and I'd recommend it to folks wanting a break and a beverage.
