CrossKeys Vineyards

Location: Mt. Crawford, VA

Wine Trail: Shenandoah Valley Wine Trail, Skyline Wine Trail

Being a JMU girl, this post on CrossKeys is near and dear to my heart. Located only 15 minutes away from campus, CrossKeys Vineyards is a popular location for college students to enjoy a glass of vino while overlooking the breathtaking scenery of the Shenandoah Valley. One thing I liked about CrossKeys was that they offered different tastings in order to please all guests. Although my friends and I did the full tasting, they also offer a white and red tasting.

 
Out of all of the wines my favorite was their Fiore, which is a rosé made from Cabernet Franc grapes. But I also liked their Joy Red and Joy White (which is a gold metal winning wine). I will say that if you  are a fan of reds CrossKeys has a wonderful selection. Because it is close to a college town the tasting are reasonably priced at $5.00/tasting. But with that being said, as a heads up they may ask you for two forms of i.d.
