Definitely worth the drive from north of DC. Drove down from Maryland on a Friday afternoon to try some new wineries. Stopped in a Molon Lave and was most impressed with not only the wines, but the winery and definitely the staff. Their selection was so good that my wife decided to join their wine club – which completely shocked me. We walked out this time with 6 bottles – their Ariadne port and Rose as gifts, and the Pinot Grigio, Viognier, Diathesi white port and Chardonnay. All were very enjoyable – though I personally wasn’t a fan of the Katie’s Charm and the Greek - Kokineli. Stewart was our server and was most cordial and knowledgeable. I will definitely be going back here, and next time be bringing several friends along with me. Ambiance: casual, chill Wine: Amazing Bathrooms: Very clean Parking: free lot Would recommend: Definitely Would re-patronize: YES!

Great small winery with a salute to the military and the part Vint Hill Farms Station provided during the Cold War. Good wine, friendly people and plenty of eating options. Great way to spend a weekend. The Cold War museum is open on the weekends only. Highly recommend the winery.

Our first visit to this craft brewery, in a town that my friend, Mayor George Fitch, devoted his life to. But back to the brewery...On a pleasant Saturday afternoon, the patio in back was almost empty. Service was fast and informative. We had tacos, which were absolutely fresh and delicious, and a flight of craft beers that were distinctive, and well-conceived.
