Wilderness Run Vineyards — Attraction in Spotsylvania Courthouse

My husband and I frequently stop by the Winery/1781 Brewery to catch up with family and friends. The atmosphere has always been wonderfully relaxing. We love sitting beneath the trees, enjoying the music, and engaging in conversation with one another. I’m quite discerning when it comes to wine, and my husband considers himself a beer connoisseur, yet we have never had any complaints about the quality or cost of either the wine or beer. Over the years, I’ve visited this place numerous times for various occasions, and I can confidently say that my experiences have always been very positive.

This vineyard is located in a county where there are mandatory leash laws and I have noted at least a minimum of 6 printed signs throughout from the parking lot to picnic tables, seating areas and tasting rooms of signs saying all dogs must be on a leash. To blame another patron for your incompetence and inability to read said signs and give your rating that you did, just shows your lack of respect. Whether or not the person who yelled at the dog in question had a right to or not is technically not the issue, the issue comes down to you getting caught for breaking the rules and your dog running free on a public venue. Had you immediately apologized to this woman, most likely she would have given you your next...
