Due Vigne Di Famiglia

As more of a beer lover than a wine lover I am used to a very friendly and welcoming level of service. Breweries love to share stories about their beer and will talk you up about the beer making process. I’ve found, in my own experience, wineries tend to be a little bit more reserved and snobby (for lack of a better word).
Here though there weren’t any pretenses or looking down the nose because you weren’t a hardcore wine person. I want to say it was Ron who was serving us and he as an absolute delight. He was very talkative, friendly, and made us feel vey welcomed. My fiancé talked to him about wine, the wine making process, and many other subjects related to wine and brewing (we brew beer at home). While we aren’t super sophisticated wine tasters he made sure that we felt welcomed.
The wine itself was also really good. Again, I’m no wine expert, but I enjoyed everything they poured for us. My fiancé even liked their white wines, and he doesn’t like white wine normally. We purchased a bottle of Rosso to go with our dinner that night. It went beautifully with the stew we had.
They waive the tasting fee if you buy a bottle of wine, and I think that applied to the two tastings we got.
SUPERB service, EXCELLENT wine, and a hit with all of us.
A must in my books to visit in Old Sugar Mill.

Feeling fruity? How about spritzy?
Wait a minute… how does one feel spritzy?! Well, go on over to D.V. and you’ll find out!
Make sure you’ve got this tasting room on your checklist if you happen to be at the Old Sugar Mill. Or do as I do and just go around to all of them! The more wine the merrier!
D.V.‘s Frizzante is the reason you need to get over to this tasting room. Their Frizzante is the perfect summer wine to quench your thirst and cool you off! It’s D.V.‘s take on a Muscato that carries that fruit-​forward style with a spritzy spunk to it, without being too sweet. You aren’t going to find this unique wine just anywhere because it’s produced specially by D.V. It’s great for a party, a picnic, or just a night at home! Warning, it’s easy to polish off a bottle, so plan accordingly!
Other perks of this spot include knowledgeable and friendly staff and other tasty wines. I was able to learn about their wines and gain some wino facts the last time I was there, but sadly, my brain got frizzy with the spritzy and I forgot! Ooops! Better go back for my lesson!

Jimmy!!! You did it again!!!
Great wine, great people! They had the Sactomofo food truck extravaganza out there Sunday and boy did it draw a crowd! We love this place and bring people here alllll the time! One of these days we are going to have to try the other wineries in the Sugar Mill too! haha!

I love this little winery, I really do. It’s the best wine at the old Sugar Mill.
The tasting room is only open on Fri.-Sun. It charges about $ 5.00 for tasting 5 or 6 wines. This fee is waived if you purchase a bottle (or in my case, several cases). The same guy, Jim Dudendorf (I got a business card) is always there and remembers me every time I come in. He remembers my friends I came with on previous visits and asks how they are. It’s pretty amazing if he remembers everybody that comes in every few months.
I think the wines they serve, for the price are amazing. You can see how much everybody cares about the wines they sale. Jim is extremely knowledgeable about the products. He isn’t pushy about buying wine and/​or joining their wine club. On this last visit I joined their wine club and was immediately invited to an event in June that sound pretty amazing. I have pretty much made their Rosso my house wine.
If you head down to the Old Sugar Mill to go wine tasting, and you see Due Vigne Di Famiglia open, you better go in and try it. Jim will greet you with a smile and pour you some really, really good wine.

This is my favorite tasting room in Old Sugar Mill, hands down.
The first time my bf and I came here, we had the most wonderful experience. The person pouring for us (forgive me I cannot recall his name) was so friendly, so engaging, and so knowledgeable about the wines that we assumed he was the owner or one of them. Turns out, he just loves and cares about the wine. He answered every question we had and even took us on an impromptu tour in the back to check out the barrels and talk to us about their process. It was a slower day so we were the only patrons in there for a little bit, so it could have been a fluke, but no. We have come back in large groups, on a busy day, and have received the same amazing service.
That is exactly what I look for when I’m going wine tasting. Great wine and someone friendly who knows about what they are pouring into my glass. There are a few staff at other tasting rooms in OSM who should definitely take a lesson or two from the staff at Due Vigne.
As for the wines… EXCEPTIONAL. The Nebbiolo, Dolcetto, and Rosso are all my faves (yes I have three, shhh). I’m usually not a fan whatsoever of sweet and/​or white wines, but we have a bottle of Frizzante waiting at home that I cannot wait to crack open and share.
This place is outstanding. Go here.

Simply put– these are terrific people offering great wine at exceptional prices and anytime you combine that trio you can count me in. We’ve been here a handful of times now and each time the experience keeps getting better. I won’t bore you with sophisticated wine talk but I will tell you that I know good people when I see them and I know when something tastes good in a glass. Meet Due Vigne Di Famiglia, a small winery owned and operated by two retired firefighters who seem to have a deep passion for making wine and it’s apparent in every glass.
The tasting room is classy and unpretentious and the staff is extremely friendly, knowledgeable and always fun. They’re engaging and they remember you, each time you return you’re greeted with a meaningful «welcome back». You might think it’s simply a clever way to greet someone until a few moments later when he picked up our conversation right where we had left off the previous visit. The tasting itself offers a number of their Italian varietals such as a Frizzante that’s big on the fruit but not overly sweet. Or the Nebbiolo that has a really nice balance of spice and berries and my personal favorite the Rosso, their Italian and French blend that makes an excellent table wine or everyday drinker. Whether it’s whites, reds, full bodies or light bodies there’s not a bad wine here and we have yet to leave without purchasing less than half of a case.
Overall, Due Vigne Di Famiglia is certainly unique because it’s in a wine culture that can be conceited and pretentious but you’ll never find an ego here. They create an environment that’s never intimidating and they make strangers feel like family so for those reasons alone I will continue to support their success one bottle at a time.

If you’re a sports fan, maybe you’d like it because they play the football game with the volume up, but I don’t really like to hear commercials and tv noise when I’m relaxing and tasting wine. They charge a $ 5 tasting fee for about 5 samples. The wines were not extraordinary. Overall, the experience they provided was really not all that great. One nice thing they did for me was bring me a chair upon request, as I had an injured leg.

Great Wine!
Great Employees!
Love the Four Corners!!!
The Nebbiolo is yummy as well.
Decent whites and I am usually not a fan of whites.

Love this place! My new favorite in clarksburg. Having been to italy, I appreciate the Italian varietals so much and due vigne di famiglia does it right. The nebbiolo and dolcetto are amazing. If you want a nice affordable table wine go for the 4 corners. The young gentleman (forgot your name, sorry) is great to talk with, very knowledgeable. Highly recommend!

Superb Italian style varietals. One of the best Chardonays I’ve ever had. Their Rosso red blend is incredible as well, having all of the best characteristics of their other wines, rolled into one. The people who work here are very nice, I will certainly be back.
