A new farm vineyard and winery established 2017 in Loudoun County Virginia growing Chambourcin, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Vidal Blanc.

With grape tons of enthusiasm and some years of experience under their belts, two Virginia wine young professionals are bringing new life to North Gate Vineyards. 

Since they posted about their opening in March, I have wanted to check out Walsh Family Wine. Vacuuming and laundry were done early and off I went to the wilds of western Loudoun.

There’s a story about this place. It was North Gate Vineyards, but in 2018 the Walshes purchased it and set up shop. What they have done in a short period of time is pretty fantastic. The property is gorgeous, and they’ve created a nice spot to unwind and relax. Most importantly, the wine is good too.

Bogati Winery is a small winery and wine bar located in the old Hill High Orchard building on Rt 7 in western Loudoun County, near Round Hill, Purcellville and Leesburg. Easily accessible from Northern Virginia, Fairfax County, Arlington, Alexandria and Washington, D.C., the goal of Bogati Winery is to provide a respite and escape from the hustle and bustle, a place to enjoy and explore our hand-made, Virginian wine a world away from traffic and the DC commute.
