Kick your wine IQ (and your palate) up a notch at this first-ever Hybrid Fête at Hardware Hills Vineyard! Fête is of course French for PARTY, and that’s what this night’s all about – festivities and French Hybrids!

If you don’t know much about these very special grapes, you will by night’s end after tasting wines from around Virginia crafted from French hybrids and paired with a delicious multi-course dinner (check out the delicious menu!), hearing from a lively panel of winemakers, and having the chance to purchase the wines to take with you. (Homework, of course!)

What a great chance to experience something new and delicious!

Join us for an evening filled with wine tasting, live music, and good company at this beautiful boutique vineyard. Take a stroll through the growing vines at this beautiful boutique vineyard, and enjoy the special camaraderie that Virginia Women in Wine events always bring.
