Molon Lave Vineyards, Warrenton

What a charming and beautiful little place. Joe’s Dad (a band) had posted on Facebook that he was going to be playing there, and we had been wanting to see him live so we went to check him out. The staff at the winery is very nice and friendly. I enjoyed the sangria very much and only had that. But they have a large selection of beer and wine. They also have infused oils and vinegars and a bunch of really cute things you can buy. We stayed inside because it was a touch cold but they have a gorgeous outside area and will definitely be going back to enjoy that.

This is a great little estate winery ( my favorite kind) that also happens to have a small microbrewery on-site. The winery has a great mix of white, rose, and red wines in the commonly found VA grapes but sometimes done in a different way that I really liked. We had a GREAT tasting served by Kim who's very good at providing info on the various wines and brews.. They also had a couple of speciality wines that I'm not even going to try and describe. Finally they had 3 ports, which included the first white-port style wine I've ever tasted (good), but my favorite was Ariadne. There was only 4 microbrew's available and I liked 3 of 4 available, but to be fair in general I don't like IPAs ( or APAs). They don't have a kitchen, but do have food trucks although you'd need to check Facebook for a schedule.. They do have a pretty good 'picnic basket' menu and don't mind outside food if you bring your own.
