Ambiance:
On my second visit to Linden, we went on a weekday -- what a difference! We were able to sit on the deck and enjoy a beautiful view and a delicious bottle of wine. A great experience. Save a trip to Linden for a time you can get away on a weekday.
Boxwood Winery (written Jun 01, 2010)
Wine: Winery: 
Ambiance: 
To taste wine here, you must visit one of their tasting rooms -- the winery itself is not open for tastings. The tasting room operates with an enomatic dispensing machine -- not bad, but you don't have the typical conversational interaction. They only had 3 different varieties available: "Boxwood," "Topiary" and a Rose -- they were all excellent, but there wasn't a lot of variety. To compensate, they offer tastings of wines from Europe as well. Not your typical Virginia tasting experience, for better or worse.
Willowcroft Farm Vineyards (written Jun 01, 2010)
Wine: Winery: Ambiance:
The wine was only so-so for me. The tasting room is in a converted barn, and very charming. However, in order to get to the winery we had to drive over a long (over a mile) narrow gravel road. I felt like the wine wasn't enough to make up for the tough travel conditions.
Breaux Vineyards (written Jun 01, 2010)
Wine: Winery: Ambiance:
The winery was very crowded, since we visited on a holiday weekend and they were having a wine club event, but the pourer was knowledgeable and informative, if a little distracted. The wines were good across the board, with only one exception (I was completely unimpressed with the rose). The grounds are beautiful and feature a large picnic area.
