A Taste of Farm Life
Come spend a little time at Twisted Pines, enjoy some wine, and take in a working farm that happens to have a winery tucked among the pastures.
INVITATION REQUIRED
Twisted Pines Farm & Vineyard is a working family farm with limited personnel and a lot to get done. Rather than keeping regular tasting-room hours, we extend invitations to join us on the farm when we're available to share it with you. If you'd like to visit, you can request an invitation for an available day and time. That way, we can be here to welcome you, pour some wine, and help make your visit an enjoyable one.
WHAT TO EXPECT
We don't have a traditional tasting room—and that's intentional. Our barn winery sits right here on the farm, surrounded by pastures and all the activity that comes with them. Depending on the day, you might see cattle, horses, goats, chickens, ducks, geese, guinea fowl, ostriches, tortoises, or one of our barn kitties making an appearance.
Our vineyard sits on the opposite side of the property and isn't easily accessible without crossing through the pastures, so it isn't part of the onsite experience.
Photography is welcome for personal use.
WINE AND AGRICULTURAL OFFERINGS
The wines we're currently pouring are offered as a 6-wine tasting experience ($10/participant), by the glass, and by the bottle. We also offer wine gear for opening, serving and preserving wine, as well as farm-fresh eggs produced by our free-range hens (subject to availability).
PLAN AHEAD
We have a restroom available for use, though it is not handicapped accessible.
FORMS OF PAYMENT ACCEPTED
We accept cash, venmo, cashapp, paypal, and credit/debit cards.

Wine and Unwind
Unwind while taking in the views from our front porch, enjoy the open air at our picnic table while the kids (or adults; we don't judge) play on the available playground equipment, or escape the elements while enjoying a sip in the comfort of our rustic barn stall.
We don't offer food onsite, but we encourage you to pack a picnic, bring a charcuterie board for experimental pairings with our wine, or order food from one of the local restaurants in downtown Staunton.
