**WeekendOasis.net Review**
Fox Meadow Vineyards is the longest term vineyard we've always endorsed. It's located minutes (it's the same mountain) from Blue Mountain. Guests frequent this Vineyard the most, because it's so close, and time and time again I get nothing but raving reviews of the vineyard. They have our favorite Riesling, it's amazing. The tasting room is spectacular. On October 18 we swung by to check things out and pickup a few bottles. It's hard for us to be impressed, again, but Fox Meadow did it once again. I really enjoyed the soft live music playing. The tasting was wonderful and it included cheese pairings. I really enjoyed the creativity, pairing one wine with a rice crispy treat to get the contrast. Our host was excellent and the decor was superb as always. We left with two bottles of wine and smiles on our face. Keep this one at the top of the list. Even though it's the last stop on our Vineyard Tour don't be discouraged, it's just where you'll stop and spend the evening before making the 1 minute drive to Blue Mountain Oasis. Tell them WeekendOasis.net sent you.

Five years ago we visited the area, and fell in love with Northern Virginia. We visited some of the local wineries and realized that great wines can be crafted here! After an exhausting search ,…. we found the parcel of land which is now known as Fox Meadow Vineyards. Fox Meadow was once part of Freezeland Orchards, which was almost 100 years old. We could immediately see the potential of this location. It had great possibilities!
The vines are thriving in their mountain habitat. This area is an excellent and ideal place for vinifera.
Once “discovering” the site, we enlisted some of the finest professionals in the region to consult with to develop Fox Meadow Vineyards. We have attempted to craft great wines using traditional wine making skills and processes. Whether your taste is for dry wines like Cabernet Franc or Syrah or whimsical fruity wines like Pinot Grigio, we have something for you.
Recent guest comments that visited Fox Meadow:
"Our second day three of us dropped by Fox Meadow Winery and did the 'deluxe tasting." We enjoyed it and all liked the same wine. So Sunday morning we came back for "brunch" consisting of a bottle of Reisling and assorted cheese and crackers. We enjoyed their outside deck which overlooked beautiful scenery and would go back again"
