Spend a Glorious Day near DC Tasting fine Virginian Wines

You must spend a glorious day sipping fine Northern Virginia wine at this beautiful winery just half an hour away from Washington DC. The Winery at Bull Run is located in one of the finest vineyards near DC and displays an authentic 1860s setting. Right next to the winery is one of the most impressive landmarks reminiscent of the American Civil War, the Manassas National Battlefield Park. This entire area saw some of the bloodiest fighting during the war. The quaint stone bridge in the vicinity, rebuilt after the original bridge was blown up on 21 July 1861, is a true reminder of that war that saw numerous casualties.

Your experience of tasting Northern Virginia wine will be topped up with a glimpse of the wine-making techniques from the Civil War era and some well maintained historical buildings and rare artifacts going back more than a hundred years. The wine tasting session is held daily till 8pm and later on Thursdays and Fridays at what is among the best vineyards near DC.
