Wine and Old Barns....Take 2


Today I'm posting pictures from Day #2 of our NoVA wine trip this past September.  We stayed overnight in Leesburg after touring all day Saturday.  Early Sunday we got up, had breakfast and headed back out to finish out our trip.

We started our trip at North Gate Vineyard.

 


Our second stop was at Crushed Cellars.  These people were awesome.  They told us about local parks to try and places to go hiking.  They pulled out crackers and stuffed animals for Emma and really made us feel at home.  The wine was great too.  




Third stop was at Sunset Hills Vineyard.  Back to the Barn theme in the area.  Beautiful place with lots of space outside to picnic or just sit on the patio and relax.  

 


 






The last stop of the day before heading home was my favorite!  The Barns at Hamilton Station.  This barn is over 100 years old.  One of the co-owners in a contractor and must have seen the potential in what was left of the barn. Very peaceful, not crowded or loud, lots of outdoor seating and a cigar out building.  The views alone were worth the trip.  They even had an outhouse....complete with spider spray.....lol.










I mean....just look at this view!!!!!
It was a whirlwind visit.  Glad I took plenty of pictures!
