We had looked for breweries close to us and found Escutcheon after tasting the Christmas Ale in Union Jack Pub and Restaurant. The tasting room features about half light beers and half heavy beers, is very clean and has a friendly server. The beer not to miss is the Winter Ale (AKA Christmas Ale). Full of flavor, medium in body with several different spice flavors brings out the season. A mixture of ales, stouts and IPAs makes this a must visit. Food can be brought in or ordered in to eat. So if you are looking for a local brewery with great tasting beers, check this out.

I have been stopping here for many years on my trip from Virginia Beach to Pittsburgh and today is the first time I’ve tried the peach pie. The peaches tasted like they had just been picked. I may just have to take a 3 1/2 hour drive every now and then for this peach pie.
7. James Charles Winery & Vineyard
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 42 reviews
Founded in 2015, James Charles Winery is the embodiment of the Bogaty's family story. We make old-world style wines in the heart of Virginia's Shenandoah Valley AVA, which strongly resembles classic winemaking regions in France. Our wines are bold, full-bodied and complex. James Charles Winery & Vineyard is the northern Shenandoah Valley's premier winery, vineyard and wedding venue - located just outside of Winchester, Virginia, it's easily accessible from Interstate 81, US Route 11, Interstate 66, US Route 522, US Route 15, US Route 17, VA Route 7, Northern Virginia and Washington, DC, yet a world away in the rolling hills of the Valley's apple country.

Incredibly friendly staff. Comfortable seating and scenic views of the countryside. The dry Riesling and Red were both very good.
