delfosse vineyards and winery印象

We have visitied many of the wineries in the area and this is, by far, our favorite. They have the best selection of wines. There is a fee for tasting, but they will waive it if you join their wine club (discounts on wine and you sign up to receive/pick up one shipment per quarter for one year). And not only are their wines delicious, but they may just have the best cheese plate on the planet. The facility is clean and nice. Service is also great.

If you can finally make it to this place you will find it worth the trip. This is a beautiful facility tucked away in the hillside. The tasting room is spacious and there is plenty of room outside to enjoy the sun and view. We found some of the wines rather remarkable. I rarely purchase a Merlot but found theirs exceptional. Highly recommended.

We did not have any plans to go out last Sunday, and after a quick search of things to do nearby Richmond I found this place, a little bit skeptical while driving there, but we were very surprised once we saw the beautiful view and facilities. Friendly staff, good crepes, good music and good wines saved our weekend.on the low side, we saw some bugs inside the dining area especially on the tables closed to the windows.

But don't expect them to advertise that small fact!!!We showed up at the winery about 4:40 on a Saturday afternoon, on a day that their website says they are open till 5:30 (last tasting at 5pm). There were several other people down in the tasting room, and you could tell that further up the hill there was some preparations for some event (turned out to be a wedding). But even after we found the place, there were NO signs informing potential customers that they were closing early. We parked walked into the winery past two tables of folks sitting and sipping and visiting and up to the tasting bar. The lady behind the counter was counting money like she had just robbed a bank, looked at us twice, before my husband asked her if we could do a tasting. That's when she looked up, sighed and said, "We HAD to close a little bit early today." We were shocked and pointed out that there were no signs or anything, and basically got no reply. Frankly, she acted like she couldn't care less whether we got a chance to sample their wine or not.So, obviously, this is NOT a place we would recommend going to.....unless you're going to be the first one there, and even then, they might HAVE to 'open late'!!!Go somewhere else.....there are many other wineries in the area that are MUCH better.

If you enjoy fine wines, this is a must! Their wines remind me of the small family-owned vineyards in France that are often much better than the big labels. Beautiful setting, delicious wines, crepes on certain Sundays (check their website for details) and friendly staff.

The advertisement of another crepe day brought myself and a couple friends to the winery. One friend enjoyed a caprese salad crepe followed by the banana and nutella crepe for dessert. My other friend had the spicy sausage crepe and an apple crumble crepe for dessert. Myself, I enjoyed a grilled chicken crepe and a classic french style for dessert. We washed everything down with a glass of their wonderful white blend, Reserve D'Oriane and a bottle of Deer Rock White to share. Our server Deb was fantastic, the food delicious and served quickly. The tasting room manager Yvette even stopped by our table (as well as others) to ask how we were doing and chat about the winery.I definately, once again, recommend this winery!

We attended a wedding at Delfosse last weekend. It was a beautiful setting and gorgeous weather. The location is way off the main roads, but worth the trip.The ceremony was up on the hill overlooking the vineyards just as the sun was setting.Their wines were quite good ( not CA good, but VA good) and the catering setup was terrific. The staff were all very pleasant and competent.This is a perfect place for a fall afternoon get away.

My family and I recently visited DelFosse on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. The grounds are stunning, and the tasting room was beautiful. We arrived about thirty minutes before closing, but they were kind enough to serve us the full flight for $10 (which is a bargain compared to the other local wineries serving only five wines for $10). The white wines were pretty good, but the reds were great. We ended up spending a lot of time talking to the owner - which we really enjoyed. The reds were so good that each of us bought a different varietal to take home. This is a must-visit winery in the Charlottesville area. Note: There is a beautiful log cabin on the property that you can rent!

Way, way out there. I think we went the wrong way, and drove on a gravel road for about 6 miles (the GPS took us out a different way, on a paved road), so you might check that before you take off. I thought the wines were okay, but nothing spectacular. However, the facilities are very nice. Once you come out of the "woods" while driving there, the building & grounds are very cool. Would be a good place to meet up with friends for a picnic, or to do a reunion or something.

The winery is tucked into a little mountainous area, full of vines on steep hills with green mountains in the background. The wedding took place in the vineyards, then a reception took place in a cabin-like space up on a hill. It was absolutely beautiful. Then, we all went down to the winery and had dinner. It was a nice, modern space with a big tent, fountains, and tasty food.
