Discover Spotsylvania County’s Wine Scene By Trolley

While the wine region surrounding Charlottesville has gained national acclaim, the Spotsylvania County scene is still relatively under the radar—for now. The Spotsylvania Wine Trail is a six-venue loop that includes spots like Fredericksburg’s Bacchus Winery, Vibin’ With Val, Mattaponi Winery, and Lake Anna Winery. No DD? No problem—the Fredericksburg Trolley offers half-day tours on select Saturdays and Sundays with stops at Wilderness Run Vineyards, Old House Vineyards, and Eden Try Estate & Winery.
