Had a lot of fun here! They offer wine tastings, both an intro option with sweeter selections ($8) and an advanced option with bolder wines ($11.) they also have a beer tasting menu with a handful of options. Food options may vary but at the time of my visit we're comprised of Pizza, oysters and BBQ. Highly recommend the oysters which were tasty and a good deal at $20 a dozen. Came for the grape stomping event which was super interesting. But even on a non event day, this was among our favorite wineries in northern Virginia.

Love coming here as much as I can! It's amazing! The wine is always good and most importantly the customer service is always good no matter how busy it is!

I wish this was a bit closer to home, but it's worth the 25 minute drive is worth it. I love that this is a dog-centric place both in theme and atmosphere. It's a nice cavernous place with a warm ambiance, and it's clear they have a lot of regulars given the number of people dressed for a jog stopping in with their furry friends. Both tasting menus are good and I'm partial to the sweet BOW side, and the price points are similar to other wineries. There's a taste for every palate on the wine side, but I didn't get to taste the beer so I'll definitely be back to try that selection out as well. I'll update then, but if you like good wine and a cozy experience you have to try!

I had been to BOW but it was 5 years ago. I decided to try a flight of beers due to the fact that beer was not available when I visited last time. The beer was meh to good. I can say honestly nothing to me was outstanding. What is outstanding about BOW is their space in general. I don't know this for sure but it felt like the space had expanded since I was there last time. It is huge with options to sit inside and/or out with and/or without live music. I was with a group of 6 and we had no issue finding a space to sit and relax. BOW is also very dog friendly (both inside and out). Although I did not bring a dog, I loved seeing everyone else's dogs. In a nutshell, I would highly recommend BOW if you want a tasting experience for a group.

This spot offers beer and wine, which is great for those who want different options. Large indoor/outdoor seating. Friendly staff. Often have Groupons. Have tried a number of their wines and all have been solid. The food is also reasonably priced.

Best winery/brewery ever, in my opinion. The craft beers are all good. Dogs welcome, lots of beer and wine, hand crafted pizza on some days, bands on other days, fire rings, picnic tables, patio seating... It's got it all!

I've been to a lot of winery's in Northern California and I was hands down impressed with this winery. Aside from the great wine and selections they also have beer for those non-wine-inclined. Throw in some pizza, various munchies and, during summer months, oysters, and you have a nice variety of things to try at this winery. Add in all the adorable dogs that paw through the place and it is now an amazing winery. They have a significant variety of activities for the family and lots of seating, indoor, outdoor and picnic space. I understand now why this place is packed often. Fortunately, I went during a holiday weekday time and got to enjoy the winery during a calm time. I recommend visiting the winery and trying any of their delicious selections.

This was our first visit to Barrel Oak, and we will definitely be back! The Barrel Chardonnay was good, as were all the beers my husband tried in his beer flight. The wood-fired pizza and oysters they had for food vendors were both also delicious. Best part was the beautiful views and how dog-friendly they were! Plenty of room for our son and dog to roam around and play, plus they were even welcome inside in the tasting room!
