Celebrating our 2026 Grape Harvest
Here are the details: Annual Harvest Dinner at Hardware Hills Vineyard
Join us for an unforgettable autumn evening at our Annual Harvest Dinner at Hardware Hills Vineyard.
It has been a challenging year in the vineyard for many Virginia grape growers. But we celebrate what we have and are thankful! We’d like to share a special evening doing outdoor farm-style dining. Won’t you join us? This is a very limited seated dinner and wine pairing event.
Gather with us outside on our scenic vineyard-side patio as the sun sets over the vines. This exclusive culinary experience features a luxurious four-course menu meticulously designed and executed by Executive Chef Jabari Wadlington, with each course perfectly complemented by a curated wine pairing.
The Harvest Menu

Pumpkin Soup | Toasted pepitas, orange-scented crème fraîche, caramelized hazelnuts, and frozen candied cranberry.
