Always driving by this place and I know my wife loves the wine here, so Id thought I would stop in and check it out. The drive in is very cool the road has rows of trees on both sides, giving a very cool look. Really love the look of the place, falls in with the traditional Williamsburg Colonial style. Then had a large event area in the back, where they may have been preparing for a wedding. Couple little tasting rooms and store. Very nice bar area, where you could sit upstairs and look over the Vinyard. They also have a restaurant, which wasnt open yet but their prep smelled great. Will definitely come back, the view, wine and food is worth it.

During COVID, they try to make the best experience possible. Gave us a choice to wait 15 min for wine tasting or buy bottles and sit outside in the beautiful field with picnic benches. We chose to buy bottles and sit outside. Would be nice if we could buy packaged cheese tray or olives or some kind of complimentary food to take with us out there. Very nice staff.

Awesome service, great food and fantastic atmosphere.Jenna, was very friendly. Gave us the history of the vineyard along with great recommendations for our short vacation.Food was wonderful. Great flavors and nice choices for lunch.Even though it was raining, you could still the beauty in the vineyard.Must stop here! Highly recommended!

Nice atmosphere, and great wine selection. Beautiful vineyard and kind staff. Tasting room still closed as of 11/15/20. The outdoor patio is a nice alternative. Flights are reasonably priced.

Nice lunch at the Winery. The tasting room is not presently open due to COVID health requirements. I ordered the Turkey & Brie sandwich and a flight of red wine. All very reasonably priced. The grill was out of service and being repaired while there, so the menu was limited. Nice experience, very friendly wait staff and Hostess. Go here while you are in Williamsburg it is a good time and beautiful scenery.

A really nice spot. Sadly no tasting but able to sit at the tavern for early dinner and a couple bottles of wine. Thank you Austin for serving us and being so nice Brought a bottle of spiced wine back to the resort and now drinking mulled wine and listening to music.

Representatives were wonderful in terms of responding to questions prior to our visit. We began with lunch at the Gabriel Archer Tavern. The service staff was professional and efficient. Although it was Sunday, our group anticipated also being able to order from the lunch menu. The brunch menu was limited and disappointing. There were very few interesting options for any of us, especially the vegetarians. We ordered an appetizer; it arrived with the main course. The food was average, at best.The wine tour was fun and informative.

Wines were very good. We each tried a different flight. People are really friendly. Prices are reasonable. It was a happy experience!

While the wine was tasty, the fact that we were served in plastic cups killed the mood. I understand it is Covid but we have been to several other breweries/wineries and restaurants where we were served with actual glasses. Im sure an extra sanitizing measure could have been achieved. Its not only bad for the environment but I also feel like I was served less in the plastic cups. Im also noticing pictures of recent reviews that have glasses in them so Im questioning why we even got the plastic cups in the first place.

A very special thank you to the Williamsburg Winery and to Wedmore Place for making our daughters wedding a spectacular success even with the challenges that Covid has presented. Leah Robertson, Wedding Sales & Contract Manager, was with us every step of the way as the state guidelines changed and then changed again! She was always accessible and attended to every detail that I, as Mother of the Bride, requested. In fact, Leah went above and beyond to make our daughters wedding memorable. Thank you, too, to the staff at Wedmore Place, in particular Adam and Barbara. They worked with us for months booking rooms and then having to refund rooms as our guest list was reduced by state guidelines ... and they did so with a smile. My family who stayed at Wedmore complimented all the staff on their pleasant manner. Thank you, too, Leisa and Erin, at the Gabriel Archer Tavern for making our Sunday brunch with family and the newlyweds a lovely last event. What a memorable wedding weekend at the Williamsburg Winery!

Went here at the start of September. The tasting room isn’t open, but the pavilion was. It was beautiful. We sat in two rockers over looking the new vines. We got two flights- one red and one white. They came in plastic cups on a piece of paper. Felt very safe. We were allowed to bring our kids - both a blessing and a curse haha. Very nice ambiance. Would recommend.

This wine is fall in a bottle. Nice with warm spices. Delicious.

Amazing food and even more amazing wine! Super friendly staff! Couldnt ask for a better time!

A fabulous location to host your wedding or celebration! It comes mostly decorated, you can go all out but minimal decor is needed! The bonus is your guest get to participate in a pre wedding wine tasting which is awesome! They also have a really great rehearsal dinner space in the wine cellar. The place smells delicious and the staff is extremely nice & helpful! ️️️ Highly recommend this location!

The bitternut soup was nice, the 2018 petite credit is great. Our waiter was quiet, but nice.

Lovely venue. Great food, wine and service. Good accessibility for handicapped people.

Nice place! Two story tasting deck apart from the cafe. Excellent wines and hands-off service during the pandemic. Reserve reds are really good.

Love love love! People was great! Food was great! Awesome entertainment!!!

If you consider yourself a wine connoisseur, please check out Williamsburg Winery. They have a great selection of wines there. You can also opt to do the tour of the location, just the wine tasting, enjoy the food or take in the scenery. But definitely leave with a few bottles though. I normally go for the tastings and purchasing bottles, so the last time we went, we opted to eat the food there as well which we should have been doing since the beginning. The flatbread is amazing as well as the sangria. Try it all and have a great afternoon/evening.

Our wine tasting was informative and quite nice. Wines were very good, we purchased a few.We went to the Gabriel Archer Tavern (on the winery grounds). We had the oysters Rockefeller, they were perfect. We share one of the most amazing burgers I have ever had. Bravo to all the staff.

We came here for the their restaurant and tried one of the wines as well. I like the aesthetics of the restaurant, simple and welcoming. Our waitress was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable.We were pleasantly surprised that they had some dessert wine options. It was sweet and tasty. Delicious food but the portions were small, especially the quiche, and the butternut squash that came with the rockfish was just a couple circular dollops.The salad that came with the quiche a bit odd— it came with some greens and mystery cut veggies on top (along with a beet). For dessert, we had a tiramisu which came in a jar. It was soft, creamy and wonderful. We had a great time.

Love this place! The hotel is super unique, the food is amazing, and the grounds are beautiful!! I live local and enjoy going to the events and the different restaurants on property. Fantastic staff too!

I really enjoyed the tour and tasting. Our tour guide Barbara was great! I will be back for the more extensive tour in the near future.

Some of the best wines in the world! The Adagio is not to be missed. Wine Club has some outstanding benefits.

One of the employees here has no idea whats going on. Im from out of state. Called to make sure there was nothing extra we had to do to go there. Specifically asked if we need reservations, girl says no we dont. So we drive all the way there and they say they need reservations. . . So a huge waste of time and now very disappointed, on my moms birthday too so we are very unhappy with this place. looked nice too was excited to go. I will not be back.

Excellent Covid experience!!!! I enjoyed EVERY moment.

Once again, we return to our favorite winery for our annual tasting. Here at the winery, we always get the reserve tasting...... and each trading comes with the glass to take home. (the only disappointment was that they changed the glass style, so the bre ones dont match the older ones, which I really liked)We did the 7 reserve since tasting which was delicious...I particularly enjoyed the Reflective, and the petite fleur along with the spiced wine and the Wessex Merlot.Kirsten took very good care of us., thank you for making our day special.

A beautiful place. I would love to hear Joes Day Off play there one day.

Delicious wine, delicious food great atmosphere.

Always enjoy our flights of wine.

Cant say much about the place because theyre one of the few wineries that arent doing tastings so we just left and went to a local microbrewery.

Love the reserve flight and Gabriel archer reserve

Always a great time here!

Nonmembers were only permitted to sit outside. Not very accessible, lots of gravel walkways, steps, etc.

Always a great time. Great venue, very helpful pleasant people. Highly recommend.

My family always comes down to Williamsburg for Christmas and Williamsburg Winery is now a staple of our visit. The wine is good, reasonably priced, and our most recent tasting facilitator (Kate) was excellent. We always have a good time, and leave with great memories (not to mention a couple bottles of wine), and we enjoy the wonderful service.

This winery is one of the best ever! Whatever your wine pallet, WW will not disappoint you. My wife and I love their wines and the property. We actually got married here way back in 2013. Since then we have been back continually and look forward to their new vintages every year. They just keep getting better and better! Check em out, youll have a blast!!!

My girlfriend and I took the Extensive Tour and Reserve Tasting. It was interesting and we got to see some cool stuff. We spent most of the time in the cellar, which is where we had our tasting (paired with cheese, bread, and crackers). Our guide was very nice. The staff was also very nice and informative. They helped us pick out some wines based on pairings and preferrence.After the tasting we walked over to the tavern for some food, which was really good, as well. Overall, it was an enjoyable experience. I would recommend visiting.

Very very nice and peaceful.I tasted the 2018 Governor’s white and Vin Licorenx de Framboise. Very very good wine

We were a group of 5 coming to celebrate one of our friends birthdays. We wanted to do a tasting but there was an hour wait in the tasting room We ordered a bottle at the pavilion and waited for our table for lunch at the cafe. The layout of this winery is odd. Specifically, you arent allowed to bring any bottles of wine you buy 20 feet from the cafe back to the cafe. After visiting several wineries before, we found that quite odd. However, we were very pleased with the service from our waitress Cat. The service from our waitress Cat was absolutely 5 star worthy. She knew the menu well and was able to direct us to things we liked. She was very helpful, attentive to our needs and prompt. The atmosphere was pretty. The charcuterie board was underwhelming. The turkey and brie sandwich Cat suggested was delicious. Thank you to Cat for making our experience to the Williamsburg Winery. If it werent for her we probably would never come back.

Its showing its age and trading room closed.

Beautiful property with delicious wine. A great way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

Very nice facility. The wine tour was very nice and informative. The wine tasting was also very good and you get to keep your wine glass! There is also a store to buy their wines. There is also a small restaurant that is on the pricy side. Overall it’s a great place to visit and spend a couple hours at!

We had a great time in their outdoor seating and the staff made sure everything was safe.

Awesome place to visit. Great wine!

So love the Williamsburg winery and so enjoy been a wine club member

We were the first to have dinner there in the governors phase 2. Delicious!

Poor customer service skills. Event venue coordinator very unaccommodating and unkind.

My husband and I truly enjoyed the wine tasting & tour. Matt, our tour guide was awesome! He was very knowledgeable regarding the different types of wine, and of the machinery that produced the wine! He was energetic and truly loves his job. Matt thank you for making our wine tasting & tour an amazing experience!

Excellent place to try wines

WW was superb! Gail poured our wine & was very knowledgeable of each selection. They have a wide variety of wines to choose from. The views are very nice, great for special occasions. The Tavern across the way smelled delicious however I was a little disappointed in the selection. My friend ordered a roast beef panini expecting it to be warm. I ordered the Charcuterie board because I was told it would serve up to 4. Traditionally these boards include a selection of cheese, nuts, honey, bread/crackers, meats and sauces. I was very sad when it came out with 4 varieties of meat and some toasted bread.

Friendly and helpful. Must stop here while you visit Williamsburg, VA. Rob was a pleasure to have as a guide.

Enjoyed the visit.

Havent had a chance to try my wine and the tastings were closed for obvious reason but everyone was kind.

Always a solid venue with exceptional wines, knowledgeable staff and tasty food in their restaurant. The tastings are amazing and informative (especially if you are a member). Their whites and reds are truly great, the Adagio and Gabriel Archer being my favs. I recommend visiting this winery at least once in your lifetime. Thanks for the stellar consistency, we will be back to see you guys soon!!

My husband and I had a great time! We did the wine tasting tour! Also tried the crab bisque it was amazinggg!! Very nice staff!! Super clean place veryyyy relaxing atmosphere!!

I booked the introduction to wine tour and lunch online for my wife and I which was very convenient.Our guide was very nice and personable, however, she did not seem very knowledgeable about the products/operations of the winery and a majority of the time read off of a piece of paper. When we reached the portion of the tour where we went into the cellar to view the storage/aging barrels my wife and I noticed a lot of black mold on the walls which left us questioning the health standards held at this establishment. After the storage/bottling, we were ushered into a tasting room where we tasted a broad array of different types of wine. We were both disappointed again because we felt rushed and were offered no product information or insight on the individual tastings other than the name of the wine. This concluded our tour and we then headed to the Cafe Provencal for lunch.The Cafe was very busy and to our delight, we were seated outside, giving us the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful day. The service was a bit slow and our waitress promptly apologized with the disclaimer that they were understaffed. Our sandwiches arrived and were very tasty as well as the small salad that came with. My wife and I liked the special lunch menu and enjoyed the opportunity to mix and match our main course, dessert, and drink.My wife and I were disappointed with the winery and the mold had us questioning the safety of their products. If we were to go back, we would skip the winery and visit the Cafe instead.

Gabriel Archer Tavern food was good!

Nice place. Too pretentious for me.

Had a great time. Wine selection is top notch. Service is second to none.

My husband and I took the less expensive tour for wine novices. The tour was with about 15 people total and it was more about the tasting than the tour. They showed us one of their grape sections and where they ferment the grapes and then took us to their wine cellars. From there they took us to an elegant room in the basement where we tasted 7 different wines and were given a souvenier wine glass. Overall, a very nice afternoon activity.

Stayed at their Hotel Wedmore Place, it was absolutely perfect and I cant wait to return. The food was phenomenal!

Was visiting Virginia Beach when the weather turned nasty - so took the hour drive to Willamsburg Winery to sample the wines in Virginia. Was not sure what to expect, but it turned out to be a great afternoon. Took the tour which included tasting and was able to learn a lot about local wines and some tips on tasting and serving wine as well. Ended up staying and visiting the restaurant as well. Definitely worth the trip - and brought home 6 bottles!

Nice atmosphere, great wines!

We had a lovely Thanksgiving meal with four courses, each better than the last!! Compliments to the chef.

Great tour and wine tasting experience!

This restaurant in the winery was one of our favorite places. I had a very brief business encounter with the founder and owner of the winery, Mr. Patrick Duffeler, almost 20 years ago. This classy gentleman ensured first class service and exquisite cuisine in the restaurant. Every time we had been in the neighborhood we made a point to stop by to enjoy some food and some of the wine. We also made special trips to the winery coming from Richmond and recommended it to friends. Our attitude towards the winery changed today. The service was terrible. The brought the wrong food. Than they brought only two meals and we had to wait for the third quite some time. Our waitress found it important to chat with another guest for the longest time while ignoring us. The menu changed also to very simple food what can be found in any low class restaurant for half the price. The taste and quality of the meals served was poor. Trying to communicate our concern to the manager of the restaurant failed since he never showed up. We decided to avoid this place in the future.

Nice tour good host standard tasting and a very nice lunch at Gabriel Archer Tavern. Take the time to go there its worth it.

We first tasted the wines which were both very good. Then we went to the restaurant and got the meat and cheese tray. Jackie was a fantastic server, it really was a great way to end the day.

Great variety of wine and cozy atmosphere! I just wish they had more types of cheese...almost every cheese was sharp and hard!

Glad theyre open(ish)! We did a Members flight with reservations .

Everyone encountered was friendly and made the visit a pleasant experience.

Was just there this Sunday 2/16/2020 what an awful experience. Upon walking up to the front door everything seemed very beautiful, until we met our tour guide.The tour guide was All over the place! She had no idea what she was talking about, and had no real information, anytime someone had a question she would say “I’ll remember that for next time, so yea Um whatever” everyone in the group just looked at each other almost in disbelief. This was very unorganized.After the five min tour we went for the wine tasting. Again we were just told the names of the wine, no real information about them and it was rushed. We’re all seated at a big table so naturally people started to talk to one another and introduce themselves which was literally the only good part of the experience, meeting new people. The tour guide was extremely rude, wanted us to be completely silent for her to come around with the next wine. Horrible experience was very disappointing.

Great food, great prices, great experience!! Will come back!!

Awesome experience. We visited back in March and the tour was fun and the tasting even better.

It was so good I couldnt wait to eat. Sorry not pictures of the plated before. Wonderful service.

Edit: The manager heard about our experience and made it right with a comped bottle of wine. It’s unfortunate we had a bad experience, but I truly believe it was an exception to the rule. Thank you for making it right and the great customer service.Kris was a terrible guide. She was rude and uninformative. She even encouraged us not to buy the wine. Very strange experience. Would not recommend or return.

Was there this past weekend! Great wine tasting and wine shop! Missed the tour but will catch that next time!

My husband and I visited the Williamsburg Winery for our anniversary on 4/28/18. Parking was plentiful. We only wanted to do the tasting, so we paid the fee and walked right into the tasting area. Nivea was our tasting guide, and she was absolutely wonderful. Nivea was very knowledgeable about the wines, and provided great details about each wine. My husband and I enjoyed our tasting experience with Nivea, and we would definitely visit again.After our tasting, we purchased three bottles of wine. We sat outside on the patio area and enjoyed one of our bottles. The atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing, just what we needed. I am glad that my experience was great, since we drove 2.5 hours to visit. The wines were great and reasonably priced. Looking forward to visiting again, the next time I am in town.

Excellent tour...good food and wine choices.

Nevaeh (I hope I’m not spelling her name wrong), was amazing! She served us during the tasting and she honestly made our experience that much more enjoyable! Her relatability and humor made us feel right at home! Her knowledge and professionalism was right on point! We definitely want to revisit and be served by her again!Thank you!

One of the most beautiful places to visit..will recommend friends ..Definitely will visit again.

Great experience for lunch and tour. Nice value. Nice folks.

Wonderful place, excellent service, beautiful atmosphere, great food and better wine! Will return.

Absolutely a great experience. First we enjoyed a delicious meal served by Christian, then took our time tasting a variety of wines, and finished shopping and getting some Christmas gifts. Such a wonderful day making memories with Susan and her folks.

Even though they were crowded we got exceptional service. Loved it.

Fantastic wine tasting with Camden at the helm. We had such a Wonderful time my wife and I today at the winery. Will do it again when we are back in the area; Dr. Ken King

It was a fun outing with my family. We did a wine tasting. We went for the pricier tasting option. Id say, you should too.Our girl Nivea from the Bronx was excellent at pouring everything and describing the taste and what to pair it with.It was my first time at a winery. I had a great time. Plenty of parking. The buildings are very cool. Made me think of a nice chateau in France. I liked the feeling and layout of the building we were in.There is a restaurant.Seeing the rows of grape stuff (Im not knowledgeable with actually names) was really cool. Id like to see it in the summer.Go, for sure.

We were there for the Thanksgiving family feast and it was wonderful. Excellent menu with creative choices and easy to appreciate flavors, cooked excellently. The wait staff was very attentive and friendly. The space was open and lovely, volume level was great for conversation. Very nice time.

Enjoyed a wonderful tour and tasting. Jeff was a great guide. He was both knowledgeable and personable. The tasting was great as well and the grounds were very pleasant to walk around afterward. Highly recommended!

Beautiful setting! The winery is set up much like a mini Colonial Williamsburg, with a few small store fronts and the antique buildings. We did a wine tasting of both the reserve and the regular wines, the reserve list having more red options than the regular list. The tasting was very affordable for two of us, and you get 7 wines with each tasting. The wines were okay, but not excellent. The semi dry whites and dessert wines were fantastic, but the reds left something to be desired. Most of their whites are aged in Stainless Steel, so they are a bit sharper. The girl who did our tasting for us was very nice, but did not know anything about the wines past the two-line tidbits she memorized, which were the same as were printed on the sheets. I much prefer learning about the winery, the process, and discussing the wines, so this was not that in depth. It was a good wine tasting for a novice taster, but did not satisfy the more in-depth connoisseur.

Check them out. Recommended.

The Williamsburg Winery is one of my favorite places in Williamsburg. When we lived in the area we were a part of the wine club and oh boy was it a good deal. Whenever we had family visiting we would be sure to bring them in for a tasting, everyone always loved it. Also, the wine socials were a blast! Definitely my favorite part of being a member. If we ever move back to the area I will definitely become a member again. My husband who doesnt even really like wine always had a great time, too!

Wonderful experience and staff. Also met the owner...he was so nice and personable!!! Will make sure we visit every time we are in Williamsburg! !

Beautiful atmosphere, and the wine is very good. Very affordable for a bottle,. and we have stayed in the hotel next store numerous times.

The Williamsburg Winery was a great place to host a Thursday evening intimate wedding ceremony and dinner.I especially enjoyed that the hotel is on site so there is no worry of guests driving after enjoying lots of wine. The food was good. The staff was wonderful.The Cafe Provencal, in the Wedmore building, has amazing food! Highly recommend reservations and enjoying a high-end meal. The scallops and dessert tasting were perfect. The hotel breakfast, also served at the Cafe, has the best quiche and very nice staff!They are announcing lots of new wines, famous visitors, and expansion plans - look forward to visiting again and relaxing when its not my wedding!

The wine was ok.

Great food and wine, and our server Jenna was excellent.

This is a great date night location and the food at the Tavern smelled amazing. I will be back again soon! The wines are very fairly priced too!

Always a fantastic time, and at our tasting today our hostess (not sure of the term) Nivea was amazing! (Im sorry if I butchered the name) she was very personable and attentive, and during the slow time was just all around great company.
