Mount Fair Vineyard

Picture exchanging vows where vineyard rows and horse pastures unfold beneath the Blue Ridge Mountains, surrounded by gardens and centuries of Virginia countryside. Mount Fair Vineyard brings together equestrian heritage, thoughtful landscape design, and remarkable privacy within a working estate in Crozet.

At the heart of the property, a glass greenhouse sits among two acres of English inspired flower, fruit, and vegetable gardens, creating an intimate setting surrounded by greenery. Beyond the gardens, manicured paddocks and vineyards stretch toward Browns Cove, while the impressive riding arena offers a striking indoor setting beneath soaring stained wood beams.

Couples can exchange vows across the open fields or beside the greenhouse before gathering beneath a sailcloth tent on the garden lawn for dinner and dancing. The Paddock House provides a private space for preparations and overnight stays, with a wraparound porch overlooking the mountains and evening sunsets.
