Try a Wine Tasting
From crisp whites to velvety reds, enjoy a private seated tasting of signature Linganore wines, with different tasting options to satisfy any preference.

Taking place in the rustic barrel lounge, this experience allows our wine and our staff to shine in the intimate nature of the tasting. As customers are able to converse more with staff members, staff are able to go more into detail about the wines, the winemaking process, and the family business overall. We can also accommodate various group sizes for this indulgent experience.
Go on a Tour
With one of our Wine Educators leading the way, choose an experience through the state-of-the-art winery or fully immerse yourself in a tour of the sprawling vineyards. With a Tour and Bar Tasting, you can expect to expand your wine production knowledge during a captivating winery tour and wine tasting. Opt in for a Wine in the Vines Tour and Tasting, offered seasonally from May through October, and you will be able to indulge yourself in our wines right next to the very grapevines that they originated from. While whisked away on the intimate Cru electric cart you’ll be fully immersed in Maryland’s first American Viticultural Area (AVA), a designation given for specific grape-growing regions.
