Beautiful Chateau Morrisette is located just off the Blue Ridge Parkway at mile market 171. Once you turn onto Winery Rd., you’ll see their parking lot on the right and admire the wonderful mountain views. This is one of the largest wineries in VA and they offer everything from wines, merchandise and souvenirs, food, and many other amenities including their own restaurant. Foggy Ridge Cider is located in Dugspur, VA about one mile from the Meadery. Their unique blend of hand crafted sparkling fine hard ciders is a real treat and should not be missed.

They are in the Piedmont area at the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. This lovely country farm winery opened in 2010 and but have had vines planted since 1999. Finally, Villa Appalaccia is like turning down a winding road into a Tuscan Villa. Great Italian inspired wines are offered in their tasting room along with complimentary cheeses. Their Olive oil festival is not to be missed and sometimes you can get a wood fired pizza while you play a round of bocce ball.
