Carl and Donna Hendrikson have created a wonderful little oasis just west of Warrenton. We've been to most of the wineries in NoVA and became club members of a select few, including Little Washington. The owners are personally involved and will be there when you go - Donna did our first tasting and helped to educate our palate in a... More

Would have like to have tasted more of their wines. Only had a couple of their own wines at the tasting. The offered many different wines for sale. I picked up an awesome Calabria Italian red. The tasting room was small. Not much for parking. The location was more a personal residence than business site.

Wine was ok, but not alot of variety they only have 3 of the 5 wines they produce, the staff was nice but too talkitive. Very tolerative to children, the house was nice and clean, very well decorated.

They only have a few wines that they produce themselves so they currently round out their tasting menu with some choices from other wineries they know and have friends at. The couple who run it did our tasting and they were delightful. They had a great rapport with their visitors and made us feel welcome. The wines run toward expensive... More

This was our first visit when we arrived in Washington, and was the perfect start. The staff couldn't have been nicer, and the views from the vineyard are gorgeous. We brought a picnic lunch and dined on their deck overlooking the mountains. We enjoyed both bottles of wine we purchased.

This winery only has 3 wines but they are good. the day we were there the vinter was having us taste 2 of his chardonnays--one aged in steal and the other in oak. He has not yet determined if/how to blend them. Because they have so few of their own wines they will also take you on a tasting tour... More

The wines produced at the winery were very good and the staff very knowledgeable. A nice touch was their presentation of some wines from 3 other small... More

Carl was most knowledgeable, informative and helpful with all of our wine questions. The tasting was free, and we took home several great finds, particularly a Cab-blend called "George."
