Absolutely amazing! Beautiful scenery and relaxing atmosphere. Had a wonderful time relaxing with family and sampling the wines. Thank you!
Stayed here for 4 days and 3 nights. Amazing time. So peaceful and beautiful. Wes was a great host. Had a private dinner in the cabin one night set up by Wes. Can’t wait to return.
Lovingston Winery is a perfect venue! They had everything we needed or wanted. They were incredibly helpful, accommodating and enjoyable to work with. Their kindness and joy evident in all they do. We were incredibly blessed to be able to have our daughter’s wedding here. Not only is the venue absolutely gorgeous but the wine is pretty amazing too. I will be dreaming of that farmhouse kitchen for the rest of my life and forever look fondly on the memories made at Lovingston Winery. I cannot recommend it enough.
Attended a wedding here and it was a magical evening!
We got married at Lovingston on June 22, 2024, and we could not recommend it more! To start, it’s absolutely GORGEOUS. From the beautiful old oak tree on the front lawn to the vines with mountain views, the scenery is SO pretty. Not to mention Tessa and Wes’s beautiful design of the new barn - the Tupelo House - and the cozy vibes they created in the Farmhouse and Cabin. Tessa and Wes were communicative from the very beginning, helping us set up a tour, answering all of our questions throughout the entire process, helping us pick the (delicious) wines for our reception, and being super responsive during our wedding weekend. Having the Farmhouse and Cabin on property was such an amazing amenity. Most of our wedding party stayed onsite, and it made for such a fun and relaxed vibe that I would highly recommend - no need to look at extra properties for getting ready or booking transportation for the wedding party! Waking up on site and sitting on the tree swing and walking around the property with my dog, fiancé, and friends, was one of my most special memories from the weekend. The included furniture was awesome and fit our vibe, and the additional rentals they offered were stunning and matched the beautiful taste they demonstrate throughout the property. Being at a winery, you have to purchase their wine for the reception (just like all of the wineries in the Charlottesville area), and theirs are all amazing. I could go on and on about this property and the people. Tessa and Wes have something really special here, and I cannot recommend this place more! Photos by Amanda Owen Photo.

As others have reported, this is the BEST Virginia wine I've ever tasted. I usually do not like much that's produced in VA but we shared two flights to try 8 of their wines and every single one was a DELIGHT. Not to mention their BEAUTIFUL picnic area and amazing new tasting/venue building. It was artfully crafted and designed with gorgeous attention to every detail. HIGHLY recommended.
We had our wedding at Lovingston Winery on June 1, 2024, and it was amazing. Wes and Tessa were an absolute joy to work with and are such kind and generous people. You can tell they’ve put a lot of love and thought into the property, and the wine is also incredible! Both Wes and Tessa were great with communication, and they also got married here – so in addition to hosting many other couples, they know this place well! All our family traveled from out of town, so it was nice to have the option for some of us to stay on the property (in the cabin and farmhouse AirBnBs) throughout the entire wedding weekend and not feel so rushed on the wedding day. Some of our best memories were hanging out on the porch drinking coffee together or lounging in the Adirondack chairs sipping wine. Other family and friends stayed at hotels in Charlottesville or other AirBnBs/B&Bs in Lovingston. I also didn’t have a wedding planner, and Tessa was so generous with her time and wedding advice in helping me plan the day. Wes and Tessa set up our chairs for the ceremony and even had some of their crew help carry them back down during cocktail hour so we could use them again for dinner. The barn, called the Tupelo House, where we held our cocktail hour and reception, was beautiful. The weather was perfect with a light breeze, and the giant barn doors allowed plenty of airflow without the need to rent extra fans. I also loved that they offered farm tables, chairs, and a bar as part of their wedding package (among many other perks). The whole wedding weekend was absolutely perfect, and I cannot recommend this space more!
Outstanding wine and the friendliest, most welcoming owners.
Wow! Probably one of the best wineries in Virginia. The quality of the wine is exceptional, the venue is cute cozy overlooking a valley, the staff are really nice and the prices are a steal for the quality. If you are in the area try it. You will not be disappointed.

Amazing wine ? Welcoming and knowledgeable family owned business.
Our wedding at Lovingston Winery was out of a dream. The setting is beautiful, with the vineyards in the foreground and the mountains in the background. We were able to have our whole wedding party stay on site which made the weekend so much smoother. The Tupelo House (event barn) is absolutely beautiful and such a fun place to dance the night away. Tessa and Wes were kind and helpful the entire time, and Tessa was so gracious with my many emails asking about small details for other vendors. They made us feel so welcome and valued, and we're so grateful for all of their help in making our day so special!
Beautiful mountain setting and the Rotunda Red was our favorite. We will come again!
Make this your next stop! If you like wine, you need to go here! It's a new barn in a picturesque setting! They even serve their wine in Reidel glasses!
Great location! Loved the Pinotage and the service was wonderful! Will be back the next time we are in the area.
