“Coming here I really didn't know too much about the winery. I expected a smallish place, and the rolling hills filled with vines leading up to the large building. From their website: "We pride ourselves on creating the finest terroir-driven sparkling, white, and red wines, which have won numerous national and international medals and best-in-class designations. Planted with 227 acres of French vinifera varieties, Trump Winery is Virginia's largest vineyard and the largest vinifera vineyard on the East Coast." Yes, it is worth coming here. Having stayed for a night at the estate I passed on the tasting here and did not need the food either, so I cannot comment on that side of the experience. Otherwise, the gift shop, including the purchase of the Viognier wine I found to be my favorite, was all I was looking for. Service was friendly, and surprisingly low-key. Almost too low-key. When I asked for the wine, there was no push for an upsell on quantity. That's fine for me, but it almost felt awkward asking for three bottles. With Eric Trump being the President (of the winery that is) it was not surprising to see some St. Jude Children's Research Hospital stuff in the gift shop as well.“
“We went when it was just starting to rain, and expected a bunch of people to be there. this is a diamond in the rough. its a very intimate place and the wine is wonderful! We went to 5 different places and this was the only one where we purchased a bottle. Will definitely be back!“
