Wine by the Fireplace

As the days of winter go by, at our next event, we plan to enjoy one of those simple pleasures of a cold winter day, which is sipping wine by the fireplace, in the warm and fun company of other wine lovers and friends from Grapes & Grains.

Wine on a winter day

We have chosen a winery located on top of Blue Ridge Mountain, overlooking the Shenandoah Valley and known for its beautiful view.

Wine by the Fireplace

Twin Oaks Tavern Winery located on top of Blue Ridge Mountain has a hillside vineyard overlooking the Shenandoah Valley, which is known to have the ideal altitude and mineral-rich soil to cultivate grapes that produce distinctive wines.

The winery in the Bear’s Den Historic District is one of the many stone houses that was built on the mountain between 1890 and 1920. At that time, there were several inns around Bluemont, including a large hotel at Bear’s Den on Blue Ridge Mountain Road, which was an attraction to the area for city dwellers.

The Evers family caught vineyard fever when traveling through France, Italy, Germany and Croatia, and in 1999 they decided to plant Chardonnay and Cabernet Franc grapes on the hillside at Twin Oaks.

Wine tasting and socializing

During our visit to the winery, You can do a wine tasting or choose a glass or bottle of your favorite wine while relaxing in the warmth of a beautiful rustic tasting room and socializing with old friends and new members of our social community.

Note: You are allowed to bring your own light snacks or picnic to have with the wine.
