Recently I had the pleasure of touring the soon to be unveiled event space at Afton Mountain Vineyards with Andrea Saathoff of Albemarle Vintage Limousine. The newest jewel in Charlottesville’s crown of wineries which allow events on site, Afton Mountain Vineyards looks forward to opening it’s doors to many couples in the year to come.
The vineyard is home to some of the most breathtaking views in all of Virginia, and your guests will be surrounded by them throughout your event. Afton Mountain offers multiple locations perfectly suited for smaller group meetings and events, larger fundraisers and parties and, of course, wedding ceremonies and receptions.
Elizabeth and Tony Smith, owners of Afton Mountain Vineyards, seem to have thought of everything with the open air terrace having preplanted holders for tent poles, picturesque location for your wedding ceremony and bridal party suite for the bride and her attendants to get prepared in, while the groom hangs out with his groomsmen in a private den on the lower floor.
Although new to the event arena, Afton Mountain Vineyards is one of Virginia’s pioneer farm wineries, with the oldest of their vines dating back to the 1970s. Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon are a must taste, with the unique Gewürztraminer and Sangiovese a surprise palette tease!
You can contact Elizabeth and Tony at Afton Mountain Vineyards at 540.456.8667.
