Why visit
- This is Loudoun's newest cider-and-wine hybrid, pouring single-varietal ciders pressed from heirloom apples — Virginia Winesap, Black Twig, Ashmead's Kernel, Wickson Crab — grown in owners Justin and Casey Wisch's own orchard at Long Stone Farm in Lovettsville.
- The wines are a true collaboration: Nate Walsh of Walsh Family Wine makes small lots of Tannat, dry rosé, Viognier, and a Chardonnay–Viognier field white from Loudoun County fruit under the Blue Wall label.
- The Route 9 tasting room, opened in May 2024 next to Vino9Market, doubles as the farm store for the family's 300-plus-acre regenerative livestock operation, so you can leave with pasture-raised meat and eggs alongside your bottles.
- You sip in a cozy indoor tasting room or an open-air garden looking toward Short Hill Mountain — the 'blue wall' that gives the business its name — sometimes with live music on weekends.
- It's a weekend-only, seasonal stop (Friday through Sunday, reopened for the 2026 season on March 21) and one of the closest craft-beverage detours to Leesburg on the drive out toward Waterford and Hillsboro.
