I wanted to see if anyone would be interested in joining me and others from the Northern Virginia Cigar Enthusiasts Group for a herf at the Vintage Virginia Wine Festival on June 1st. We are planning to gather around 12 noon that day to enjoy some Virginia wine, live music, great cigars and even better company. The cigar group I organize will be hosting the event and Altadis USA (Montecristo, R&J and H. Upmann and Trinidad among others) has offered to provide free cigars.
The Wine Festival is being held at Bull Run Park in Manassas and is a huge Virginia wine tasting event and best yet, it is cigar friendly. Vintage Virginia is one of the state's oldest and longest-running wine festivals, promoted by the Virginias Wineries Association. The event is held in the Northern Virginia area, at Bull Run Regional Park Special Events Center, and features over 50 of the most prominent Virginia wineries, pour over 350 of their finest selections. Vintage Virginia also features some of the finest entertainment you'll find at a wine festival, with music from some of the nation's most talented performers, educational workshops, and even children's activities.
Advance tickets are $25/pp or $30/pp at the gate.
