🍷PINOT PARTY🍷
Saturday Nov. 7th
2 Sessions | 12-2 & 3-5 (SOLD OUT)
$50 per person
🍷
Join us for our annual pinot party festival! We’ll taste through the wide range of w**es made from the famed and appropriately lauded varietals belonging to the pinot family!
🍷
When we hear pinot, most of us think of light, elegant reds popularly grown in france, oregon, and california. But the world of pinot goes well beyond noir. We’ve gathered a wide selection from around the world all made from grapes called pinot. From the stony minerality of pinot gris and the richly textured pinot blanc, to rosé, bubbles, or classic red pinot noir, you’re sure to find the perfect w**e for your autumn/thanksgiving table!
🍷
Amplify your pinot party experience with a pairing platter from the evening star cafe or hi-fi tex-mex barbecue kitchen! Each delicious platter serves two to four guests.

🍇 INNOVATION IN VA

••••••••••••••••••••••••••
The Virginia w**e industry has grown substantially in the past fifty years, becoming a region that the rest of the w**e world has taken notice of. But the region is still young, and the best w**e is still to come. Goals for local w**emakers and grape growers include building a more sustainable agricultural footprint in times of great water stress & frost hurdles, finding the best grapes to grow in our soils and climate, and of course creating the best quintessentially Virginian w**e for the international market.

When it comes to w**e regions, you can’t get more local than the w**es of Northern Virginia. We consider ourselves incredibly lucky to have such a premium w**e region so close to home! But with so many w**eries to choose from, such as Linden, Glen Manor, and Crimson Lane, a little guidance on the who’s who of Northern Virginia w**es may be necessary. That’s where we come in.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••
The Shenandoah Valley is one of the most prominent American Viticultural Areas in Virginia. These grapes often end up in blends made by w**eries in monticello, charlottesville, & nova. But there is a reason these grapes are so sought after by the w**emakers to the south! Let’s look closer at the region and taste w**es made entirely of grapes grown in the shenandoah valley to see what this rugged region has to offer!

🍇 History of VA W**e
10.2 | 6pm | $45
🎟️ Tix in Bio
••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Since the first European settlers landed in the state, there have been dreamers keen on creating an internationally acclaimed w**e industry in Virginia. Perhaps the most famous of these dreamers was Thomas Jefferson, who saw the potential of the land to support an agricultural industry that could fund a revolution and legitimize the United States as a key member in the global economy. While Jefferson was able to inspire the beginnings of Virginia W**e production, the development of the industry he dreamed of was not accomplished in his lifetime. In fact, the history of Virginia w**es has been a tumultuous series of ups and downs, but in the past fifty years, we’ve seen the growth of a truly remarkable w**e region, right in our own backyard!
