Some of our folks were out and about in Northern VA this weekend for a birthday celebration. They stopped at Old Farm W**ery at Hartland (special shout out to Emma!) for the Welcome Here program and enjoyed a tasting, a glass or two of Chardonnay, and the live music 🎶 They also spotted the AWS Professional Member plaque and sent photos!
Thanks for making our members' weekend feel special!

Like other w**es in this series, Vinho Verde is not the name of a grape but rather a w**e region in northern Portugal. Meaning "green w**e", the name refers to the youthful w**es typically ready for drinking 3-6 months after harvest. They are usually white w**es, but red and rosé are permitted, and they usually have a slight effervescence. Crisp and refreshing and perfect for a summer's day!

Sauternes - A botrytized, rich, sweet w**e from Bordeaux that is truly a collaboration between nature and w**emaker. This misty region creates the perfect conditions for noble rot, which concentrates the sugar and flavor leading to delicious honey, marmalade notes. The grapes traditionally used include Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc, and often Muscadelle and Sauvignon Gris. A luscious w**e that ages incredibly.
