From the Winery’s Blurb:

Bluemont Vineyard is Loudoun County’s 15th winery, tasting room, events forum, and home décor shop. Bluemont Vineyard is nestled on an eastern slope of the Blue Ridge Mountains just minutes from Leesburg, Middleburg and surrounding towns. While enjoying our exceptional wines, you can take in the spectacular panoramic views from our wine tasting room high above the Virginia countryside. At an elevation of 951 feet above sea level Bluemont Vineyard has clear views of Tysons Corner, Reston, and Dulles. The goal at Bluemont Vineyard is to offer a unique experience on the Virginia wine trail. Northern Virginia, and Loudoun County in particular, are home to so many fine wineries and Bluemont Vineyard aspires to continue in that heritage. We are excited to be a part of the Virginia winemaking tradition, and we look forward to becoming a destination spot for wine trail enthusiasts throughout the region.

Tasting fee $5. Open Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Holiday Mondays 11am – 6pm; Winter Hours (November – February): 12pm – 5pm


Our Visit:

“Bluemont is known for its spectacular panoramic views. At nearly 1000 feet up, you can see Tysons Corner. Or just squint and pretend you’re someplace a little more exotic as you sip your Viognier, or sample a real Strawberry wine.

No picnics (with outside food) allowed here, but there’s plenty to buy and enjoy inside or on the patio, including cheese, salamis, spreads and tapenades, along with warm baguettes. Hot soups, stews, sandwiches or chowders are offered on weekends.

Groups of six or more wanting to taste should reserve in advance.

At the winery: Well-stocked home decor shop full of one-of-a-kind gifts, furniture, wine related items, T-shirts; private parties and weddings available in The Cellar (seating 50) or The Stable (seating 350); pets welcome.

The wines include Viognier, Vidal Blanc, Rose,  Merlot, Norton, plus Peach, Strawberry, and Blackberry.
