Virginia Mountain Vineyards

Virginia Mountain Vineyards sits on 91 acres between the Blue Ridge and Allegheny Mountains, in the town of Fincastle, Virginia, about 25 miles north of Roanoke. The vineyard was first planted in 1998 with Chardonnay and Cabernet Franc, later joined by Traminette, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Sauvignon Blanc, and now totals 9 acres of estate grapevines. Owners Brian Weber and Jacqui Sobieski, who purchased the property in 2018, focus on producing estate wines enjoyed against the winery's mountain views. For weddings, the vineyard offers an outdoor chapel setting surrounded by grapevines and lined with red rose bushes, with panoramic Blue Ridge Mountain views. The reception venue, the Event Center, is a tri-peaked tent on a stone patio strung with chandeliers and Edison lighting, seating up to 250 guests for weddings and private gatherings alike. The venue does not provide catering in-house but works with local caterers of the couple's choosing, alongside its own estate wines for guests to enjoy.
