Revalation Vineyards is truly a breathtaking experience. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by scenery that could only be described as idyllic, especially since the golden hues of early fall have begun to set in. The landscape feels like a painting, with rolling hills that create the perfect backdrop for a peaceful afternoon.
We visited to celebrate my father's birthday just last weekend, and from the very start, we were embraced by a warm, inviting atmosphere that made the day even more special.
The highlight of our visit, without a doubt, was the opportunity to chat with Françoise herself. She shared stories about her rich life experiences, which reflect the heart and soul that both she and her husband have poured into the business. Her calm, intentional demeanor mirrored the quiet grace imbued in the venue.
Whether you're a seasoned wine connoisseur or simply someone looking to unwind and enjoy beautiful surroundings, this vineyard delivers on all fronts.
Needless to say, we’ll be returning, and I couldn't recommend Revalation Vineyards enough. It's not just a place to visit—it's a place to savor, and one we will cherish in our family memories for years to come. This is a perfect, intimate escape, and one I'd recommend a...
   Read moreA beautiful vineyard with great wine and hospitality. My fiancé and I visited on the way down to our getaway house. We were immediately greeted by Julian, one of the owners. On a cold and windy day, he kindly invited us inside the cabin and already had a warm fire burning for us. Their red/white flights as well as their baguettes were delicious.
We were notified that our getaway house had lost power, but Julian was a gracious host and offered for us to stay as long as we wanted. We ended up staying close to 3.5 hours and had great conversation with Julian. He is a dentist by trade, and my fiancée and I are also in the medical field. The 3 of us shared our plethora of healthcare stories over the years. We also learned about Julian’s roots in Ireland and how he and Françoise’s love story came to be. We even had the pleasure of meeting Françoise later that afternoon.
Revalation is an experience. The wine, hospitality, and views are unmatched. The owners are down to earth and their passion is palpable. Thank you, Julian and Françoise. Looking forward to return during our next trip...
   Read moreToday was the first time my husband and I popped by Revalation and it was quite charming. To be honest I've hesitated for more than a year as my passing thoughts went to tent revivals and brimstone. The owners were engaging and delightful. Now for the reason you might read rambling like this- the wine. I could not have been more pleasantly surprised with what we encountered. [we've been to way too many unremarkable VA vineyards]. The sparkling- Zeus, I believe, was lovely. We also did 2 flights, white + rose and the red flight. As with all wine tastings, your particular pallet/taste in styles and grapes will vary. That said, the varietals were spot on for what you'd expect. In fact after I learned a bit more about their story I was even more impressed at the sophistication they were already achieving for a relatively young enterprise. And...they introduced me to a grape by the name of Tannat that I'd never encountered. Great couple of hours on a Sunday afternoon. Worth...
