BLUE RIDGE WINE RETREAT - The Ultimate Agritourism Food & Wine Retreat!


BY POPULAR DEMAND - NEW FALL WEEKEND AND WEEKDAY DATES


The 2 day Blue Ridge Wine Retreat is scheduled on the first weekend of every month — and on scattered Thursday/Friday dates during FALL months for those lucky enophiles that have weekdays available for fun.


Experience Fall foliage at Shenandoah National Park and the ultimate Food & Wine education retreat in the gorgeous Blue Ridge Mountains about an hour west of Washington D.C. at Little Washington Winery.


Earn your Dirt Road Wine Academy Degree! The Blue Ridge Wine Retreat delves into five wine and food adventures, an evening farm to table dinner filled with laughter, learning and fun, and finishes with a Choco-Vino Challenge final exam.


Let the wine and food adventures begin!


DAY 1


--- 2pm - Please arrive before 2pm. Tasting commences as we enjoy virtual journeys through famous wine regions and food pairing lessons.


--- 6pm - Guess the $100 Bordeaux Happy Hour


--- 7pm - We'll all roll our sleeves up to prepare a farm to table Winemakers Dinner where we'll explore first hand when an every day wine is just fine, when to spring for a premiere wine and when to splurge for a crazy amazing selection!


DAY 2


--- 11am - Fun continues as we participate in a Vintners Table Learning Lunch, playing with 3 entrees, 3 cheeses, 3 desserts and 3 artisan chocolate truffles as we learn how to get perfect food and wine pairings every time.


--- 3pmish - The retreat finishes with a final exam - Choco-Vino Challenge at the Wine Loves Chocolate tasting room. We have proven once and for all that wine does indeed go with chocolate - if you do it right! Learn how to get a perfect pairing every time.
