Afton Mountain Vineyards

Some of the oldest vines in Virginia

Afton Mountain Vineyards is one of Virginia's first farm wineries with our oldest vines dating from the late 1970's. Our focus is on making wines of exceptional quality from our own estate-grown grapes. Our Tasting House is surrounded by vineyards, 360 degree mountain views and sits beside a 13 acre lake. We grow 11 varieties on 25 acres. "Grapes don't grow in ugly places"® Come see for yourself!
