So beautiful! Try to make it on a Sunday and you can enjoy a nice game of Polo as well. That was a great “extra” for us! Loved the wine, but also the atmosphere was great.
We visited King Family Vineyards on our last day in Charlottesville. The vineyard is hopping with activities, and very crowded at times. We did two wine tastings, and the tasting flights come with Riedel souvenir glasses. There were food trucks there the day we visited, and we enjoyed those as well. The winery has some unique activities, and is very family oriented. We would visit again.
Wonderful experience in Virginias Wine Country. Excellent wines served by the very nicest & friendly staff. Beautiful mountain views to behold while relaxing with friends & family.
All facilities an extremely clean & sanitary which is important these days.
Pollo on Sundays is spectacular event & is family & pet friendly.
We have been to all Central Va Vineyards & we feel KING FAMILY VINEYARDS at the TOP of our list to recommend to family, friends & visitors. Very enjoyable atmosphere!
I'm British and over here from France. Never have I met a server so rude! My host introduced me as a British artist, living in France and a keen wine drinker. The attitude of the old, tall, dark hair 'lady' behind the counter chilled to frozen, she looked at me as if I was trash! She' poured four small half glasses of wine and said 20$. When we handed over a 20, she said 'You're not from Virginia are you'? Yes, said my host, politely. I live here. 'So, you haven't heard of sale tax, that's 20 (plus something). How rude.
We took our micro samples and sat outside, madame arrive again to sneer at me, seriously she gave me the skink eye. I seriously hope her next poop is a porcupine!
My wife and I spent Valentine’s Day at King Family Vineyards and we can’t recommend this place enough. We had a Reserve Tasting with James and the experience is something that we won’t soon forget. He walked us through the history of the winery, and how there was some good fortune in getting into the wine business, as well as various details of their wine productions and the countless decisions that go into the art of making each wine.
While many VA wineries have turned to self-tasting flights (which they also offer), it was refreshing to have a more personalized wine experience.
We have visited many wineries throughout the US, and King Family Vineyards with their diverse line of wines is now one of our favorites.
If you’re looking for wineries in the Charlottesville/Crozet area, then this is a must visit. Trust us, you’ll be happy you went.
