One great feature that they offer is wine and truffle pairings, which is perfect if you’re a chocolate lover like me!

Willowcroft has a wide selection of wines available, including Riesling, Chardonnay, Traminette, Rose, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Chambourcin. 

You can also book a guided tour to learn about the wine-making process, while getting a behind-the-scenes look at the property, including the historic barn, the original vineyard, and the barrel rooms. The guided tour includes wine tastings as well.

The vineyard can be hard to find. You should use the instructions on their website , rather than GPS to find it. 

4. The Barns at Hamilton Station

The Barns at Hamilton Station is just a 9-minute drive from downtown Leesburg. The unique and lovely tasting room is a restored 1910 barn. The property itself was once a dairy farm. As you can tell, a visit to The Barns is filled with special and historic details. 

The wine-making process at The Barns pays tribute to the style of wine-making in Bordeaux, France. 

The winery offers self-guided flights of red wines, white wines, or a mix of red and white wines. They also sell some food items, including soft pretzels, and picnic baskets with meats, cheeses, spreads, warm baguettes, or crackers.

The winery notably focuses on earth-friendly wine-growing techniques. They have a lovely tasting room filled with windows, skylights, and abundant natural light. 

Another great feature of Fabbioli Cellars is that their wine tastings include unique and delicious food pairings. Each month has a theme too and features a specific food plate.

7. Zephaniah Farm Vineyard

Zephaniah Farm Vineyard is another great winery to check out, and it’s located just a 10-minute drive from downtown Leesburg. 

The property is actually more than just a vineyard: they are a working farm with cattle and sheep. Because of this, they do not allow pets. 

The vineyard has a unique 1819 home on the premises that is occasionally opened to the public. Each month, Zephaniah makes an announcement on Facebook and Instagram regarding what days they will allow visitors into the home. 

A great bonus of the winery is that they actually offer free delivery of wine if you live within 15 miles of the winery. 

Zephaniah is a perfect stop if you want a relaxing and quiet retreat amidst many of the more hectic vineyards in the region. 

8. The Vineyards & Winery at Lost Creek

The Vineyards & Winery at Lost Creek is about a 16-minute drive from Leesburg.

You can find out about each of these unique experiences online. Reservations are recommended. 

The vineyard also serves Sunday Brunch with a delicious menu including Eggs Benedict, Crab Benedict, Shrimp & Grits, and Smoked Trout. 

And if you’re in downtown Leesburg, make sure to stop by their intimate wine bar: Echelon Bar.

Firefly Cellars is just 7 minutes from Leesburg. The winery features a wood-paneled barn tasting room that is bursting with charm and character.  

Not only can you find a great selection of wines, including Chardonnay, Chambourcin, and Traminette; but they also have some cleverly named light food items, like That’s What Cheese Said (assorted cheeses with prosciutto and salami) and Pass the Bread, Honey (a baguette served with jam, honey, olive oil, and fruit.)

You’ll also find a nice selection of different flights, depending on your interests and mood. You can choose between the typical White Flight and Red Flight, or try the Celebration Flight (which naturally includes a sparkling white!) and a Light Flight. 

And if you’re interesting in spending even more time in the heart of Leesburg wine country, you can even book a stay at The Cottage at Firefly Cellars! The charming cottage has beautiful views and even its own hot tub and pool!       

11. Bleu Frog Vineyards

Bleu Frog Vineyards is another great wine destination that’s just 12 minutes outside of Leesburg. 

They specialize in some of the most common Virginia wines, including the reds Chambourcin, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot, as well as the white Vidal Blanc. 

The tasting room is located in a beautiful, wood-paneled room with high ceilings 

Along with flights and wine by the glass and bottle, you can also order a frose (a frozen rose), which is one of my favorite summer wine treats!

The winery is both dog-friendly and kid-friendly. There are even numerous play areas for kids, including a sandbox. 

12. Eagletree Farm Winery and Restaurant

Eagletree Farm Winery and Restaurant is located a little north of downtown Leesburg. It’s not far from The Vineyards & Winery at Lost Creek, which makes both wineries convenient to visit together.
