We understand that with Covid19 things are a bit different so we can forgive the Dixie paper cups. However, the staff was rude and unhelpful. The wines all tasted like the wax from the paper cups, so there was no way to know if they had any wines of decent quality. The interior of the building was worn and not well kept. Should have listened to our tour guide and skipped this one. …

This is a very pretty place outside and inside, but our wine "expert" left a lot to be desired. She acted totally "put out" that she had to do a tasting for us.

On the way back from our Wintergreen Resort home, we stopped at Horton Vineyards primarily for future reference (i.e., summer, sitting outside with food, wine, and our dog). When we arrived, we were the only visitors. We left our Shetland Sheepdog in the car, but quickly determined that he was welcome, so brought him in. We then engaged in a tasting of 10 wines (i.e., a thimbleful of each), found most to be pleasant. Note: we had previously had the Horton Viognier and have found it excellent among various viogniers. Rating Horton: customer service was great; Caitlin, granddaughter of the founder, was excellent -- knew her wines and answered questions about the winery, her ambitions, other wineries in the area, etc. Wines were decent and we bought a bottle of their chocolate infused wine (don't know when we will drink it, but...). The ambiance was great since we had the place to ourselves. I had read somewhere previously that the people at Horton's were unfriendly. Not the case, happily. We will return in the spring or summer. It was a bonus that our Sheltie was welcome, which was not the case at Early Mountain, which we had visited a few days before.…

This is our second visit and our friends first. Nice winery and enjoyable. The outside sitting area is nice but not the best of all the wineries.

Went to Horton Vineyards on an annual ladies friends weekend...it was very nice. I got some nice herbed seasonings for dips and cooking as gifts. My favorite wine is their cranberry wine. It's cheaper to buy it by the case to give as gifts for Christmas.
