Back in 2008 Barrel Oak Winery was the “new kid on the block.” Relatively new to winery industry the owners, Brian and Sharon Roeder, quickly immersed themselves into the world of learning about wine, making wine all the while planting and maintaining vineyards and building a large state of the art facility that accommodates the winery, tasting room and event room. Brian and Sharon are a delightful couple, with the enthusiasm and strength to carry out this large undertaking. Sharon spent time at numerous wineries learning about winemaking from the winemakers as well as asking questions about the structure of the winery and what they wish they had done differently when the winery was built.

Now in 2012, Barrel Oak is being watched as it has successfully produced wines and has a large number of visitors to the winery. The Roeders host many events including charities and food events.

Fine Art Gallery & Tasting Room in Middleburg

More evidence of the success of Barrel Oak Winery is the second tasting room they opened in 2011. This tasting room includes fine art. The Fine Art Gallery & Tasting Room is in historic Middleburg next to the Red Fox Inn.

Currently the Middleburg location is open on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and holiday Mondays. Appointments can be made on other days.

If you enjoy fine art and wine, then be sure to stop by the Middleburg location.
