Join us on Saturday, April 10th for live music by Caleb Nei & Kevin Johnson from 2-5pm!

In normal times pianist Caleb Nei and upright bassist Kevin Johnson each play more than 170 shows each year (both together and as part of other groups.) They perform regularly throughout Virginia, Maryland, DC and into West Virginia and Pennsylvania. The bulk of their repertoire comes from the Great American Songbook—those timeless tunes form the early twentieth century, but they occasionally throw in a few pop or rock tunes for fun.

Expect tuneful melodies, swinging solos, and engaging performances. Some tunes they’ve recently been playing: Fly Me to the Moon, L-O-V-E, The Way You Look Tonight, They Can’t Take That Away From Me, It Had to Be You, I Love You, What a Wonderful World, On the Sunny Side of the Street, Sweet Georgia Brown.

… But Should Be.

Once every decade or so a wine grape comes along that transcends region, winery, or even common sense to become a brand unto itself. Malbec has joined that illustrious club of brand unto-itself varietals. Over the past few years we’ve introduced hundreds of guests to the U.S. darling of wine (Argentinean Malbec). This year, we’re continuing the trend and expanding to the wines of Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Bolivia, Peru, and Brazil. Come taste the hottest new grapes you’ve never tried, including the healthiest grape in the world (a glass is like a 1-1/2 hour workout in the gym) coming from South America where they have the perfect dirt.

Join us on Sunday, April 11th for live music by Scott Clark from 2-5pm! Scott Clark is a classically trained bass-baritone and graduate of the James Madison University School of Music. Though locally Scott performs a wide range of jazz standards and pop music, he specializes in both Opera and Oratorio. Scott has performed on stages across the world, including Germany, Czechia, and New York City. Scott has been heralded by the Thüringische Landeszeitung as well as other publications for his “youthful, powerful bass voice” and sings to the likeness of Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, and Harry Connick Jr. Scott currently volunteers with the Loudoun Lyric Opera to help enrich the cultural climate of Loudoun with exquisite performances of renowned operatic works.

This tasting is for die hard wine geeks. We’ll reveal the best lessons learned from our own wine education as we went about learning to become winemakers. After 6 months of studying, calculating, measuring, blending and, of course, drinking wine, we’ll talk about some of the coolest things we learned. We’ll break down the metrics of judging wines by the 100 point scale and teach you how to get perfect pairings with food nibblers as we use eight 90-99 point wines to discuss each lesson.

Is it possible to pair desserts with our favorite mainstream wines? Better be careful, some of these flavors are in definite conflict … but it can be done. While you may be hard pressed to find anyone upset with the wrong wine & dessert pairing (it is wine and dessert after all) it is nice to show off a little knowledge when entertaining guests, not to mention the piece of mind in knowing that what you are serving won’t be conflicting. Come try desserts and wines and learn why some do and some don’t go well together.

Virginia Versus The World™ Thomas Jefferson had a vision … of vineyards lacing the Virginia landscape. And, along with the vines certain economic benefits – not to mention the resulting prestige, pleasure and refinement of enjoying fine wine. Nearly 300 farm wineries now dot the Commonwealth landcape. These special farms are putting Virginia on the map in the world wine market, protecting farmland with sustainable agriculture, and playing a major role in the State’s economic development as a burgeoning tourism draw. The wineries of Virginia continue to gain national and international recognition. Do you think Virginia wine is ready to go head-to-head with world class wine? Be the judge and jury in an exciting blind tasting as Virginia’s best varietals are pitted against their international competitors in a blind comparison tasting. Come judge for your self how well (or not so well) Virginia stacks up in the world wine arena.

Although sipping on award-winning wines is a delight, once you bring food into the equation the experience moves to an extraordinary level of discovery. Scientists describe seven basic tastes: bitter, salty, sour, astringent, sweet, pungent (eg chili), and umami. There are however five basic tastes that the tongue is sensitive to: salt, sweet, bitter, sour, and umami, the taste of MSG. Experience a fun, educational, and delectable aha moment Food and Wine pairing class. You will learn how to appreciate your palate and pair wines – spanning from whites and rosés, to reds, dry, bubbly or sweet – with savory and sweet food selections.

Come take the triple threat challenge – we’ll taste all of our favorites: cheeses and chocolates and wines all together and see what it does to our palate. Somebody’s got to do it right? If you get the right wine to complement the right cheese or chocolate it can be a match made in heaven!
