"I recently visited another AMAZING winery in Virginia earlymountain, and it’s about 2 hours from DC (with no traffic)! It’s located in Madison, VA, right outside of Charlottesville. This winery has such a sophisticated atmosphere and has so many scenic views; it literally felt like a breath of fresh air. They offer some of the best quality wines and have been voted #1 tasting room in the US. Now the food was FRESH and DELICIOUS!! Their food alone will have me taking that two hour trip to Madison, VA anytime lol Most of their ingredients do come from local farms nearby to Early Mountain! I will be making another video on my wine tasting experience because it was THAT amazing! Anyways guys check them out! Reservations can be made on exploretock!" 🍷❤️👌🏽 ( 📷 earlymountain #earlymountain #vawine vawine #virginiawine ( #📷 @theroute231 )
