Bluemont’s Ridge-Top Mountain Escape: Bluemont Vineyard
Bluemont Vineyard sits perched 951 feet above sea level along the eastern slope of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Bluemont, offering some of the most iconic, sweeping valley views in the landscape west of Leesburg. Part of the Zurschmeide family’s multi-generational agricultural footprint—sharing the mountainside with sister properties like Dirt Farm Brewing, Henway Hard Cider, and Great Country Farms—the estate pairs an elevated farm winery feel with serious regional hospitality. Navigating the winding mountain drive brings you straight to the 951 Tasting Room and its sprawling stone patio, where the landscape opens up across the rolling Loudoun Valley all the way to the distant horizon on a clear afternoon.
The wine program centers on estate-grown Virginia fruit, balancing crisp whites and sparkling selections with rich, approachable red blends. To match the pace of an afternoon on the patio, the kitchen serves a seasonal menu of artisanal flatbreads, warm dips, and locally inspired charcuterie boards designed for grazing while you take in the scenery. Weekdays offer a quieter, unhurried pace where you can easily find a peaceful spot to watch the breeze move through the vines, while weekends bring a vibrant social energy with groups gathering for flights and seasonal vineyard celebrations.
If you like something crisp with a touch of local character, try their signature Petit Manseng or a seasonal sparkling pour, both of which pair effortlessly with an outdoor table overlooking the vineyard slope.
