A vineyard is the current occupant of this 50-acre site, which comprises acres of the highest land in the Northern Neck, straddling the Potomac and Rappahannock basins. Since 1832, the site has been used for a school, a Civil War garrison for Union troops, and a dairy.
Today, Ingleside produces about 10,000 cases of wine each year, and has won many awards. Recht has become a consultant, and Ingleside's winemaking responsibilities now are those of Tom Payette, who is continuing Ingleside's award-winning traditions. Ingleside is among the leaders in the emerging Virginia wine industry. The winery sponsors annual wine events with tours and tastings, live music, and regional foods.
The plantation is open year-round except major holidays, Monday-Saturday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Sundays from 12 to 5 p.m. Free guided tours and wine tasting are available. Private tours and facilities for group parties and picnics are available..
