“What a Host!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 31, 2012

What an awesome experience. I am not a wine person (Quite far from it actually) but the tour and our host Chris was awesome. Although full of knowledge he gladly accepted my "bubba" terminology and lack of culture in stride and we all had a blast seeing the country side of Charlottesville. Getting to the many places to visit and... More

“Memories as good as the Wine”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 30, 2012

We stayed on the Arcady Vineyard and took one of their tours on a hot Sunday afternoon. It was a real luxury to be driven around, and especially as the vineyards we visited were carefully selected and the tastings were great. The pace of the tour was perfect, it wasn't rushed and we had time to learn about wine, enjoy... More

“Great Time”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 31, 2011

We had a great time touring the various wineries in the area. This was the first time that we actually did a wine tour like this -- and we are ready to do it again. We were able to visit four wineries in one afternoon. We would have never been able to do this on our own. Chris did a... More

“Excellent Wine Tour”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 18, 2011

We had a wonderful time on this wine tour. We were picked up on time from our hotel by Chris in the Arcady minivan and were joined by only one other couple. During the ride to the first vineyard, Chris told us the history of the Charlottesville area vineyards and winemaking. Chris' guiding throughout the tour was informative and excellent.... More

Our tours are designed to be very personal, assist our guests through their tastings, to answer all questions, and help them figure out what kind of wines and winemaking styles appeal to them for as fair a price as possible. To date I believe we have been able to sit... More

We had an excellent time - Erika was friendly, knowledgeable and took care of all the details. At our third stop, she supplied us with a delicious tray full of local cheeses, handmade chocolates and fruit. She took pictures of us at all the locations... More
