King Family Vineyards is a family-owned winery located in Crozet, Virginia, surrounded by the scenic Blue Ridge Mountains. Known for its award-winning wines, the vineyard offers tastings, tours, and a relaxing atmosphere for visitors. Guests can enjoy wine on the patio, explore the estate, or attend seasonal events, including polo matches on Sundays.
According to the Armchair Sommelier:
✅ Viognier – Floral, tropical, and well-balanced acidity. A signature Virginia white. (Pair it with Chicken Tagine with Apricots.)
✅ Crosé – A dry Rosé with hints of grapefruit and lime. A summer favorite!
✅ Meritage – A rich, full-bodied Bordeaux-style red with cherry, blueberry, and vanilla notes.
✅ Seven – A port-style wine aged in bourbon barrels, offering deep caramel and spice flavors.
✔️ Best Time to Visit: Weekdays for a quieter, more personal experience. Weekends are lively but can be crowded, especially during polo season.
✔️ Bring a Picnic: Outside food is welcome, and the vineyard offers a beautiful outdoor setting for a relaxed meal.
✔️ Family & Pet Friendly: Kids can run around outside, and even the friendly winery dog might join you! (Dogs allowed outside but not in the tasting room.)
✔️ Dress Code for Polo: Think casual chic—sundresses, hats, and linen for a true polo experience!
