Can I bring my children to the Tasting Room?

Guests under the age of 21 are not permitted in the tasting room. We do allow children on the premises. They must remain in your company within arm’s reach throughout your visit. Guests under the age of 21 are not permitted at the firepit due to safety concerns.

Can I bring my pet?

We are dog friendly. Your well-behaved, leashed pup is welcomed outside on our wrap-around porch, on the observation deck by the pizza oven and on our patios. We have ample outdoor lawn space where you can walk your pet. We ask that you clean up after them. We do not allow dogs inside the Tasting Room.

Do you serve food?

On Friday and Saturday evenings, Gypsy Gourmet hosts delicious wood-fired pizza events. We proudly host Virginia farm-raised oyster events on the first and third Sundays of the month starting at noon. Gypsy Gourmet’s Cajun food truck is here on the second, fourth and fifth Sundays of the month starting at noon.

Can I bring a picnic?

Yes, you’re more than welcome to bring your own picnic food with you. We also sell a variety of pre-packed snacks in the Tasting Room. No outside alcohol is permitted on the property.

Do I need to make a reservation for a tasting?

Groups of 6 or fewer do not need to make a reservation. Larger groups should make a reservation for a Private Tasting.  Please see Private Tastings on Private Events page.

Do you accommodate large groups?

No buses, shuttles, or limousines without prior notice. Groups over 9 people must contact us at least 48 hours in advance by emailing brenda@gauthiervineyard.com or beverly@gauthiervineyard.com.
