Afton Mountain Vineyards is a family-owned winery nestled on the eastern slope of Afton Mountain, offering sweeping views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and a genuine, rustic-elegant vineyard experience. Founded on vines first planted in 1978, this vineyard has grown into a beloved destination for wine lovers, nature seekers, and couples seeking a breathtaking backdrop for events or celebrations. The estate cultivates 11 varieties of grapes across its acres — from crisp whites like Albariño and Chardonnay to robust reds such as Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Tannat — ensuring a diverse portfolio of estate-grown wines. Guests are invited to explore the vineyards, enjoy tastings in a warm and welcoming Tasting House, stay overnight in one of the charming vineyard cottages, or sip wine on a veranda with panoramic mountain and vineyard views. For those dreaming of a wedding or private event, Afton offers a 2,400-square-foot glass-door pavilion, a lawn with arbor, and on-site lodging — marrying vineyard romance with comfort and convenience. Whether you come for the wine, the scenery, or the serenity, Afton Mountain Vineyards offers a timeless Virginia wine-country escape.
