“The excursion was fun, relaxed and enjoyable visiting three wineries (plus one bonus winery). The pickup was easy and the bus was clean and comfortable. Winery choices were good and I appreciated the ability to pre-order lunch from a local market. Christian was friendly and knowledgeable and made the trip interactive. I would book again next time I’m in the area.”

Chocolate and Wine Pairing in Chantilly

2.Chocolate and Wine Pairing in Chantilly

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 21 reviews · 1 hour (approx.) · from $65Best value

At River-Sea Chocolates in Chantilly, you’ll sample five chocolate bars with three wines selected from local vineyards, then see the factory machines and learn how bean-to-bar chocolate is made. The session lasts about an hour and is capped at 10 people. Eli has hosted some sessions, though the host may vary.

“We were hosted by Eli. He gave us wonderful chocolates with wines that complimented each special morsel. These chocolates are amazing. This business is about making chocolate in a sustainable and pure way. All my future chocolate purchases will be from here. My palate now knows the difference and there’s no going back to commercially made chocolate. ❤️”

The specific wineries are confirmed several days ahead, so check the route before booking if you have a particular vineyard in mind.

“I paid for a tour and picked the more expensive one as it had the winery I wanted to visit. I was instead on the cheaper one, and not the winery I wanted to visit. Next time I’ll book directly with spirited and get it cheaper with more options”

“We had a wonderful time on our wine tasting tour. Will, our guide, was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about wine, full of stories and happy to answer any questions. It was so interesting to hear about the history and characters of wine in the region. Our first stop was at Gray Ghost Vineyard, which was brilliant. Al, the owner, gave us a tour of the vineyard, including the impressive wine library, before taking us through to the tasting room to sample 11 !!!!! wines.

Washington, DC: Virginia Wine Region Experience Tour

7.Virginia Wine Region Experience Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3 reviews

Ladysmith Tours provides a private, five-hour Virginia wine outing with pickup and drop-off at your hotel or Dulles International Airport. Your route can include three to five wineries, with stops shaped around your schedule and wine preferences. Wine is not included in the listed price, so plan for extra costs at the wineries.

“Everything was great from the hotel pick up to the final transfer. The wineries carefully selected wineries that match my wine taste, and I visited three wineries. After that, I was asked where I wanted to go, so I stopped by the supermarket. They even take you to a very small winery that would be difficult to find on your own. The price is quite reasonable compared to other winery tours, so I definitely want to go again!”
