Just drive on Route 50 to Loudoun and Fauquier, you will see signs everywhere pointing to vineyards.

Yes. Loudoun - Middleburg especially has dozens to visit.

There's a winery just outside of Clifton, about a 15 minute drive from Fairfax City. Here's the website:

My partner and I enjoy Veramar Hillsborough in Loudoun.

At Breaux, she got ticked when this bigot said something about all the queers in our bus. She dropped her pants and pissed like a man. We were told not to return.

Correction: post should have said Veramar in Clarke County (http://www.veramar.com/weddings.aspx) and Hillsborough in Loudoun.

Loudoun wineries are weak sauce compared to the Faquier/Rappahannock wineries off 66. Rappahannock cellars just south of Front Royal are a very family-friendly winery (they even have a toy corner for younger kids) and its a little less than an hour from the 66/7100 interchange.

You should avoid Linden - amazing wines and great for a couple or small group but they give you the stink-eye if you bring a kid in.

Grey Ghost vineyards in Amissville. Nice tasting room, nice drive out there, and the wine is good.

Just hop on 66 west and you will run into a ton of them around Delaplane, The Plains, Markham, and Linden.

The Winery at La Grange is good, it's pretty close too - right outside of Haymarket. It's sister winery, Permund (also good), is just past Gainesville off Rt 29.
