Scenic Roads, Gourmet Pairings & Boutique Wineries.
Leave the busy streets behind and follow one of Loudoun County's most picturesque routes through the historic villages of Leesburg and Waterford. Rolling vineyards, winding country roads, centuries-old stone homes and handcrafted wines come together in an afternoon designed to be savored rather than rushed.
A scenic countryside drive between two boutique wineries — one pairing wine with gourmet bites, the other with artisan chocolate.
Begin your journey in historic Leesburg before meandering along the quiet backroads toward Waterford — one of Virginia's best-preserved National Historic Landmark villages. The route itself is part of the experience, offering sweeping countryside views, historic farms, vineyards and charming rural scenery around every bend.

Enjoy one of Loudoun County's most distinctive tasting experiences with a seated tasting of six award-winning wines, each thoughtfully paired with gourmet seasonal bites. Guided by a dedicated wine educator, you'll discover how food transforms the character of each wine while learning about the region's vineyards and winemaking traditions. This family-owned winery is the realization of a dream more than three decades in the making. After years learning the craft in California, the owners returned east in search of the perfect place to plant roots. They found it just outside Leesburg, where they transformed a 25-acre property into one of Virginia's most respected boutique wineries, blending old-world family traditions with modern winemaking techniques.

Finish your afternoon with a guided tasting that perfectly showcases one of life's classic pairings. Sample six handcrafted wines alongside artisan chocolates, discovering how sweetness, texture and flavor interact to create an entirely new tasting experience. The winery entered a new chapter in 2021 when its current owners traded retirement for vineyard life after falling in love with the property. They partnered with the original founder and award-winning winegrower — who remained to oversee the vineyards — bringing together fresh energy and more than 25 years of Virginia winemaking expertise to continue producing exceptional wines.
