Good Luck Cellars

This is a beautiful vineyard. The building is gorgeous & great views from the surrounding porch. The wine is pretty fabulous as well!

Nice people. OK wine. They need to lose the wine dumbwaiter that they run during tastings. It is very noisy and distracting.

I still can’t wrap my head around the fact the NNK — where the pastime for many a local is driving around in a pick-​up truck with a case of Busch Light and a few buddies — has become wine country. But I’m not complaining … now I’ve got something to do instead of sit on the couch and watch my dad watch the Hallmark channel when I go back home.
Good Luck is the second vineyard I’ve visited in the Wicomico/​Kilmarnock area. It’s not quite as close to Grandma’s as Athena Vineyards, but close enough that the wife and I decided to have a little more fun after our visit to Athena and check out Good Luck before circling back to visit Grandma.
Good Luck Cellars is a very impressive vineyard, winery, and tasting room. The tasting room is very open and inviting, with a fireplace and lots of comfy seating. They also sell other artisan products — be sure to try a sample of the flavor-​infused olive oils, they are delicious! (The wife and I got a bottle of garlic-​infused to take home). The owners are super-​friendly and will give you just the right amount of information you want/​need depending on your knowledge/​interest in wine.
We did the tasting, and then stuck around for a glass each. My wife was a big fan of the Four Blonds, while I had a glass of the Sweet Red Shamrock. The owner suggested that we check out the small upstairs tasting room … it’s in a small loft area and offers a gorgeous view of the vineyard and surrounding area.
The wife added Four Blonds to her Christmas list and my mom echoed all of our compliments when she stopped by to pick it up — she loved the atmosphere, layout, and said wonderful things about the owners. They run a class operation here … definitely worth checking out if you happen to be visiting the Lancaster/​Northumberland side of the NNK.

Great great service and great wines!
From the moment we walked in the door and the service we received was amazing! We had our daughter with us and they gave her Choc treats and something to drink while she played on her I-Pad…LOVE this place. The wine was also very good and that’s why we really went. right? Cant say enough about our experience here… you must try it.

Absolutely lovely grounds and building. The gentlemen assisting with the tastings were warm, knowledgeable and very friendly. They knew their subject and did not need to read from a script to talk about what they were pouring. Superb staff! To have the wine maker helping with tastings was an unexepcted bonus. The wine prices range between 15 – 22. My wife and I tasted the whites and reds. We left with an assorted case and a membership in their wine club. We will be back.

Very beautiful property, large deck and wood fireplace inside and out. Seating inside as well. Very friendly and informative staff. Left with Four blondes, Chamboucin and Chardinel. Will be back to visit.

First off, the owners here are fantastic. They spent so much time speaking with us and sharing about their passion for winemaking. The grounds are beautiful and the tasting room is great. They have a long list of whites and reds and even included two vertical tastings of two types.

I really liked this place. The wines were good, the service was friendly, the property was beautiful. They also have flavored olive oils you can sample, which was a nice touch.

This is a relatively new winery in the area, opening in 2011, I believe. The tasting room is a lot better than others in the area — lots of light with a large stone fireplace, large tasting counter, high vaulted ceilings, separate men/​women bathrooms, a large great room and a cupola with great views. I would recommend doing the white wine tasting vs. the red wine, but don’t 100% discount all the reds. The planted grapes are not as old as other vineyards and the owners have some improvement to make. The owners are very personable and easy to talk to. They, like many others, acted upon their dream to open a winery. This is a great place to visit and should be on your list of wineries for the Northern Neck region. They have already won awards from the VA Governor’s Cup. Tastings are $ 4 I believe.
Their whites are: Viognier, Vidal Blanc, Vignoles, Four Blonds, Chardonel, Rip Rap Rose.
Reds are: Radiant Red Chambourcin, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cab Franc, Petit Verdot, Inheritage.
Definitely make sure to try their Petit Verdot and Inheritage. A great place to sit on their porch sipping wine or go up in the cupola. They also were having an oyster crawl when we were there. Their great room would be great for weddings/​receptions.
They also sell olive oils and aged vinegars.
