new kent winery

Stunning scenery in a booming area of the county, pleasant staff, gorgeous facility, good but largely unremarkable wines. Not a slam, just don't expect gourmet wines - you will find one or two you like, so stick with them. New Kent Winery is well worth your time, enjoy an afternoon there!

It can be a bit confusing when you first enter, especially when it is busy on the weekends. The staff was pleasant and the wine good. There was a food truck available.

The selection is great, although this is not my favorite in the area. I prefer more dry wines. What is so great about New Kent is the location and the service. The young man who facilitated our tasting was very knowledgeable about wines in general. The location is picturesque and relaxing. I will stop again.

The winery has a ton of potential - good location in what is now a growing area of New Kent County, excellent facilities, and close proximity to a high end golf course (which happens to lack a proper club house). My wife grew up about 5 miles from the winery, so we are partial and hope it continues do well. For the most part the wines are acceptable, but not out standing. The Vidal Blanc stands out a a great afternoon porch wine. Given the location, I'd like to see them add more food choices, and some craft beers - great partnering opportunity with Vinaterra Golf Club.

My husband and I stopped here on a wedding anniversary trip. We immediately fell in love with this gorgeous building. It is beautiful, inside and out. It wound up being a nice day,so we sat outside under one of their many patio heaters.The wines were all quite good, so it was difficult to choose one that we wanted to enjoy while soaking up the views at this beautiful venue.A must visit if you are in this part of VA!

The New Kent Winery is absolutely gorgeous! The interior of the tasting room is beautiful with authentic woods and the outdoor covered porch with tables, chairs, and rocking chairs looking out over the vineyard is amazing. The property is very quiet and you get a feel of being secluded (in a good way!) and away from the hustle bustle that is Hampton Roads. This place is great for a girls' or couples day trip or worth a stop after shopping at the outlets. When we go, we do tasting and then share a bottle of wine out on the deck. I bring our own cut up cheese, meat, and crackers. Though the winery sells those items, they are pricey. TRY THE WHITE MERLOT!

We visited all 4 wineries and this was our second favorite. This one had the best tour as they discussed the construction of the building which was very interesting. The wines were pretty good, but I think what propelled this into second place was the tour and the building.

There are very few wineries in the Williamsburg area and this one is still about 30 mins west of Williamsburg, but is worth the trip! We were very impressed with the large vineyard as we drove up and the grounds were perfectly landscaped and beautiful!The tasting room was very impressive and beautiful as well. We found many reclaimed accents around the tasting room that made it special too.Staff were friendly and attentive and explained all of their wines nicely. The wines they offered allowed us to get a good idea of what they offered so we could make a good, safe decision on what to buy. After buying a bottle, we stayed for a while to enjoy it on a nice, cool crisp day outside under one of their many outdoor heaters.We look forward to returning the next time we're in the area!

The rustic and classic feel of the main house paired with a warm greeting received immediately after entering definitely set the mood for the two days I was at the winery for a wedding. The facility is clean and beautifully kept, and the landscape is stunning. The wines on hand were also very tasty. All who were partaking in the tastings inside the main house seemed to be enjoying themselves and visiting with friends...definitely a great atmosphere!

We attended a wedding here recently and had a great time. The main tasting room is very nice and they were able to hold the ceremony down in the cellar because of weather, which turned out to be unique. I didn't much care for the chardonnays or the red wines (dominated by Cabernet Franc), however a couple of the semi-sweet wines like the white Norton were not bad.
