We had the opportunity to stop here based on the recommendation during our stay at the Iris Inn in Waynesboro, VA. The staff suggested a trip here while we were our hiking the Blue Ridge Highway area. Chiles did not disappoint! We had the opportunity to grab their delicious Apple Cider donuts (YUM!). We also grabbed a 1/2 a peck of peaches. The Peach Salsa is AMAZING!!! Easy find nearby Blue Ridge Highway and the Shenandoah National Park.

Stinson Vineyards produces superb wines at a very reasonable prices. Their 2017 Tannat and Chardonnay were fabulous. The next generation is running the winery and building on the well established reputation for quality and value of the prior generation.
